Piper Sandler NY

Based on the most helpful WSO content, Piper Sandler has been making significant strides in the MM space. Their inorganic growth strategy has been phenomenal and they've come a long way since the early 2010s.

Their Financial Institutions Group (FIG) division, for instance, has always been strong, especially since the Piper Sandler merger. Other groups like Chemicals (from Valence) and MedTech are also performing well, punching above the firm's overall weight and MM reputation.

However, it's important to note that there's an imbalance of strength across Piper's groups. Their strong groups are much stronger than the same sector groups in other MM's, while their weaker groups are weaker than the same sector groups in other MM's.

If you're considering Piper Sandler from a client perspective, I would recommend these groups: Chemicals (Valence Group) - one of the best, if not the best chemicals group on the street, and FIG (Sandler O'Neill) - known for having a good team.

Remember, they've been compensating for their weaker areas by acquiring the best boutiques and buying their way to the top, and it's really been working. So, from a client perspective, they could be a solid choice depending on your specific needs.
