The stark contrast in Announced vs. Completed so far this year can largely be accounted for by the few headline-busy mega-deals that are being contested and haven't completed yet, that is if they go through at all (i.e. BHP Billiton - Potash, Sanofi Aventis - Genzyme, etc).
Very surprised to see Citi so low in the Announced league table as it's been in the top 5 every year for the last 10 years. Also surprised to see how well CS is doing this year in M&A.
Subjectively, whichever one boosts your bank/MD's ego more lol. Objectively, you still do plenty of work for an announced deal that doesn't go through (been there, shitty feeling), but a merger that doesn't go through isn't really a merger, and you can't really be proud of it.
Just don't take league tables too seriously (for example, to make an offer selection decision), especially when there's a full quarter left to go in the year. One BB being a rank, or even 3, above another doesn't mean very much.
But I do agree to some extent about Completed vs. Announced. These tables are severely skewed due to BHP-Potash, which had a cumulative 9 financial advisors (4 BB's) for the two sides. 2 advisors on one side is inefficient enough, I can't even imagine the team dynamics and internal politics on that deal lol.
ShawnFireLol @ Diamonds trying to praise Barclays everywhere
full disclosure: I am accepting Barcap fulltime
Good decision, but I am not trying to push BarCap or anything. I was just giving the OP what he was asking for - it seems as though the person who responded first just happened to leave out the US tables. I also thought everyone would of wanted to see global debt & equity considering it accounts for the rest of the investment banking business.
Don't blame me if the numbers look nice; these are just the standard tables.

What is generally considered more relevant? Completed or Announced.

Quite surprised at Barcap. If they continue like this they might actually be taken seriously.
Thanks cn monkey: but announced is nothing compared to completed. Citi being top 3 completed is definitely a strong showing.

JPM / BAML ... looks like the universal bank structure is the way to go. Their large capital markets capabilities really seem to be paying off...
