Thought about just posting the current advisor rankings, since 2015 , for anyone curious what the split looks like across a long time period. Note that this combines the investment bankers and consultants because sometimes consultants do RX IB work for smaller deals as well, so this is probably more accurate than segregating the two, since the lines aren't clearly delineated.

How tf did HL end up with almost triple the dealflow as PJT...when talking about total liabilities??
it might be PJT ex. blackstone, not sure how far back this ranking goes
Sorry, should've clarified that in the post, this is since 2015
HL is massive compared to PJT, on a per head basis they’re probably ahead of
Yeah but 1.7 trillion is wild, that's more than basically every other bank on here combined...wonder if HL gets the majority of restructurings each year
Anyone in the RX world will know how they do it: ay deal they lose to PJT/EVR/MOE on Co/1L, they represent the shitty Out of the Money group on huge deals so they can say that they worked on $xxxbn deal. Huge volume, but significantly fewer meaningful creditor/debtor mandates than above peers; nothing wrong with it just playing a diff game
However in the "client" section, it says that the majority of their clients are debtor mandates, followed by creditor mandates, and a very limited out of the money groups, so maybe they just get a majority of MM deals?
Curious about Dundon, have not really heard of them so was wondering if anyone is familiar with the firm?
