Would not really put LAZ MM in the same boat as GS CMG and JPM RIB. Doesn’t really operate in the same fashion from my knowledge.
Think the perception of these versus MM banks is largely group dependent as mentioned above, but given the brand name and CMG and RIB actually acting as groups within the real IB, put them on the same level as the best groups at any MM, besides maybe HL RX.
Tough to judge on exits though since both groups are fairly young and still expanding quickly.
Overall pretty good list. Would add Jefferies with Blair, and move Lincoln with HW/PJ. Lincoln’s been doubling every 5 years and plans to again in the next 5.
Just curious, why is Blair above Baird/HL? People on here typically bucket those three together and wondering why you think Blair slightly edges out those other 2. Also would you say Jefferies is above Blair or equal?
thank u for not putting jefferies in this list. they really don’t belong in the MM space anymore. not a BB either, but they rarely are pitching against MMs these days (for sell side m&a). would not be saying the same thing even 5 years ago
Exactly why I did not include Jefferies. They are also willing to work with highly leveraged companies. They do not fall under any of the classic categories.

Highly group dependent.
..////
curious what are the best MM groups then? I know healthcare at Jefferies is really strong, what are some other top ones?
how about for S&T ?
.
GS MM (CMG)>all
Where would GS MM/JPM MM/ LAZ MM stack up ?

I think MM firms are extremely group dependent but in a general sense I think it is -
Tier 1a: William Blair Tier 1b: Baird/HL (Rx is a different story) Tier 2a: Piper Sandler /Harris Williams Tier 2b: Lincoln International Tier 3: Cowen/Raymond
You'll rank Raymond, but not Lazard?
I wanted to focus on solely MM banks.

rothschild and jefferies???
I'd probably put Jefferies next to Blair and Rothschild with Baird/HL non-rx

Official objective rankings 1. RBC 2. brown gibbons & Lang 3. Deloitte corporate finance 4. Cantor Fitzgerald 5. Loop Capital markets (Tie) 5. Evercore (tie) 6. Sandler O’Neil (pre-merger) 7. Oppenheimer 8. William Baird
Lmao “pre-merger”
Whoever threw shit at this sucks at parties. This is hilarious. William Baird did me in.
This is the most accurate ranking on WSO
Macquarie?
Stephens?
