There are threads on here that discuss the stronger groups at Nomura NY (the concenus being that balance sheet heavy groups like LevFin and Sponsors benefit from Japanese lending regulation).
However, I don't see any mention of where analysts have gone after they spend two years in one of these groups.
Does anybody have some info on this?

exit opps to PE must be pretty bad considering i dont see anyone or know anyone from Nomura at PE shops.
Plumbing kiddo.
@ledger123" does this mean no name PE shops, moving up at Nomura, corp dev...?
Or do these analysts just evaporate upon completion of their stints
@querius evaporate

I know of a fair number who lateraled into other banks.
