Paris IB Comp at Senior Levels

Hi all,

I'm wondering if anyone has any insight into what the comp gap is (if any) between senior IB (VP and up) roles in London and Paris? Obviously this varies based on bank and team etc, but I'm just looking for ballpark numbers if possible. Based on what I've seen so far, comp at the analyst level seems to be broadly similar between the two cities, with Paris having higher bases and lower bonuses. Open to correction here. 

Currently trying to weigh up some options as a junior deciding on which city to shoot for and prospects in the long run. 

Cheers
