Some groups that come to mind:
Outperform: Barclays PU&I, Deutsche Sponsors, UBS Sponsors/LevFin, HL RX, Citi M&A, WF REGAL
Underperform: JPM Energy, MS FIG, BofA TMT, PJT M&A
Would add Barclays Sponsors to this as Barclays is a sponsors-driven bank to a massive extent and that group exits well + sees a lot of deal flow despite averaging like 3-4 analysts a year. I would also add DB REGL, the only two groups with any notable deal flow in NA for DB are sponsors/REGL and LevFin also has work but they are a product group. BoFA M&A also overperforms as they have M&A do most of the modeling so the analysts tend to do better due to being more prepared than their coverage peers + due to having the reputation for doing all the modeling (not at BoFA, so please correct me if I am wrong).
Would also add Citi industrials to outperform as well. Honestly JPM HC also outperform in the sense that it’s the only edge JPM has over GS/MS
Sorry to hear that you weren’t able to get a PJT first round
Sorry you get a hard on whenever you hear PJT but everyone knows in terms of actual deal volume PJT M&A underperforms
This is not talking about exits, but groups that preform well
For EMEA add outperform DB levfin and industrials, underperform MS industrials
