Out of interest, how realistic do you think a Raymond James/Stifel merger is? With all of the banking consolidation going on (Piper Sandler - PWP etc). There seems to be some strategic logic given the overlap in wealth management and mid-market investment banking, but I'm curious whether people see it as genuine M&A potential or just market speculation. And are there any value-add teams apart from maybe KBW in the US where RJ would benefit from?
