RBC Capital Markets Investment Banking London

Hi all,

What are your opinions on RBC Capital Markets summer internship for Investment Banking in London? I know they are growing very quickly and have cracked the top 20 for M&A this year, has strong commodities operations, and strong in N.America, but where do they stand in London? I have heard from people that RBC is growing very quickly in Europe.

Would appreciate it if people could give me an insightful answer!

I have been wondering myself. Since RBC CM has such a large commercial branch, don't they have a huge capital base? Not sure, but aren't they kinda high in Syn. & LevFin (behind JP Morgan, BoA, WF, and Citi)? I'm only hypothesizing. I would like more clarification on RBC CM groups. I know they are BB in Canada and MM in U.S., but that's about it. Anybody on WSO work there or know the firm better?

 
boutiquebank4lifetaxes: No, they are only in canada. RBC is purely MM and not even a top MM in the U.S. They are not usually ranked on any top 10 LevFin while the other banks you listed are consistently on there.

Got it. Much appreciated.

 

My experience with both the NY and London team have been very good. Very professional and good prospects. The firm is actually profitable and people there get paid.
