It would be nice if you could share to us a little bit more. IB ? S&t? AM ? Group ? Ft? MBA ? SA?
Thanks for the clarity.
Guggenheim
Without more info, Guggenheim because I don't like Canadians
Guggenheim.
Both up and coming banks in the North American M&A space (Canadian banks like RBC and BMO have built up a solid presence recently), but I think Guggenheim has built a better name for itself with the Verizon deal and I see foresee them growing very quickly in the next few years. Their analysts get worked extremely hard, but seem to get great deal experience.
Note: I am not at Guggenheim.
I went in and saw the banking floor at RBC the other day. Lot's of cool guys there. Cool office too. Both good places, up to you. Heard people talking about guys who had exited to PE while I was there so its definitely possible to exit to PE from RBC. I would go with RBC personally but I haven't had any experience with Oppenheimer.
Just in case anyone was wondering.
lol
RBC for sure. Great culture, growing firm, and I've seen some of their guys recently exiting to decent places. Guggenheim has done very little (lets not point to 1 deal and make a generalization about the quality of the firm) and is an asset manager for all intent and purpose. Still have a ways to go before anyone thinks of them as a legitimate player in M&A. Obviously this is all personal opinion, but I would take RBC without a doubt.
Did you just receive offers from these two firms?
