Most Desirable Product/Coverage groups of BBs and EBs in Singapore?

What are the most desirable product/coverage groups in IBD in Singapore?

I've researched r/financialcareers, YouTube, and this platform and learnt about the more renowned industry groups across various BBs and EBs, but this knowledge only applies to NYC/the USA. 

As an 18-year-old Singaporean who will be matriculating into a local target university, I'd love to learn more about the stronger deal teams in Singapore's IB scene in terms of exit opportunities (PE/HF/AM), total compensation, WLB, and culture. 

Anecdotally, the more desirable groups in the US would look a little like this : 

GS : TMT, FIG, Healthcare

JPM : M&A, Healthcare

MS : TMT

PJT : RX

BAML : LevFin 

CVP : Healthcare

Evercore : TMT

PWP : RX, Healthcare

Of course, these are just a couple of BBs and EBs off the top of my head. Please let me know a list of the top groups in Singapore and include more firms like Lazard, Moelis, Guggenheim, Rothschild etc. It would also be helpful to give anecdotes about your experience working in any of these firms!

Thank you :)
