Lets hear it. How would you rank top 5/top 10 London investment banks by how much of a flex they are. Not necessarily according to the average joe cause in that case EBs would be ignored - so according finance pros and people in the industry. Looking at IBD rather than any trading/research etc.

FT Partners - Dope name
Aaaah Financial Times? So you're a journalist?
Roughly in line with first comment:
GS/JPM/MS/Lazard/PJT/Evercore/Arma/Centerview/Rothschild/PWP/Moelis/HL Rx/BAML/CS/Citi/UBS/Jefferies/DB/HSBC/Barclays

Man said Arma Partners
Dude guessing you’re from the US if you don’t know who Arma is.. Arma partners are elite as fuck in EMEA, they’re easily no.1 for mid cap TMT M&A. They pay above market and work on very cool and large deals with great exit ops, they also probably have one of the best deal flows in TMT across EMEA.
