MS M&A vs BX M&A vs Evercore

This is my first post on WSO after lurking for 2-3 years and I appreciate the insight/opinions in advance.

For FT opportunities and PE exit opps, which option is better? Can you please provide some specific examples if possible?

Thanks!

 

MS M&A > BX M&A >>> EVR

A lot of kids on this board are obsessed with boutiques. But you shouldn't underestimate the power of the MS brand name. If you're guaranteed MS M&A (which rarely happens) then it's clearly the best choice. If you're not guaranteed MS M&A, Go with BX M&A for PE/HF exit opps and MS for everything else. Throw EVR out of the discussion.

 

Bad advice.
