Spanish League table

Hello to the Spanish IB community,

I recently came across this league table from Mergermarket, supposedly the M&A Iberia.

League table

As I'm new to this industry, any thoughts? Personally I'm surprised by PwC, looks like a huge deal value, and by Barclays, since I've seen them higher in other league tables.

That's true, but still impressive $200m avg deal value. Above Arcano and Alantra.

Ignore the Big4 as they will always have a lot of small deals propping them up. JP 1st, Citi 2nd & BNP 3rd is the 'real' ranking. Surprised by Lazard as well as Jamieson, as I haven't seen them named as big players at all (maybe Lazard but in the sense that it is a well known global brand). Barclays seems lower than I would expect IMO.

Then in terms of local boutiques its as expected, AZ on top. I would have expected Arcano to be towards the end if B4 wasn't there, but truth is that the loss of Bluebull & Jefferies must have hurt them a lot. Alantra not appearing is normal, as it really is smaller than people think (but with great branding & international expansion I must admit)

 

Thanks for your reply!

Why would you exclude Lazard? Its avg deal value is comparable to its peers.
