I was under the impression that titles at GS investment banking go associate to vp (5 to 7 years) to md to partner? But any idea why some people in London (primarily) at GS, have the title executive director in investment banking? It looks like it is the same thing as VP or maybe their version of a “senior” vp or Director.
Anyone at GS in the know?
