Was sent this image of the league tables from mergermarket from a friend. Thought it'd be helpful to share. Obviously m&a activity is considerably depressed compared to last year given the environment but interested to hear if anyone is surprised with how things came out over the first half of the year.

Also, where are PJT and PWP? EVR, LAZ and MOE seem to be holding their own though...
Thanks, where did you get this from?
Also from MergerMarket
I know this is a stupid question - but how does the actual work day differ between somewhere like GS vs somewhere like DB (in m&a). It looks like GS usually generates almost 10x the fees - does that mean that DB spends 9/10 of their time pitching? or do they spend longer on each deal? do GS work longer? are the GS employees THAT much more efficient?
I'm sure it's a combination of several of those, and also that the incoming deals are largely because of the client relationships that the senior member hold, but I still always wonder if the day-to-day work of an analyst at a top bank vs a lower one is as different as the fees they bring in suggest.
Its deal volume, not fees
