LSEG 2025 M&A Rankings by Fees

Looks like BofA slipped out of the top 5 for M&A fees for the first time in over a decade. 

Incredible work that Weinberg has managed with Evercore - going from virtually non-existent in global M&A leaderboards in the 2000s to a top 5 M&A powerhouse.

  1. Goldman Sachs
  2. JPMorgan
  3. Morgan Stanley
  4. Citi
  5. Evercore
