Morgan Stanley GCM (ECM, DCM, LevFin) Compensation

Anyone know anything about this group? This is classed under IBD at all other BBs, but MS segments GCM from IBD classic. Anyone know how comp is in this department?

They don't have a restructuring group, but they do have 1 MD who sits in M&A and handles all of the restructuring at a senior level in conjunction with GCM -- mostly refinancing / exit financing. Some advisory, but once filing occurs difficult for MS to advise due to conflicts.

"They are all former investment bankers that were laid off in the economic collapse that Nancy Pelosi caused. They have no marketable skills, but by God they work hard."
