I was wondering if anyone had any insight into the top Gaming, Lodging & leisure groups. Which banks see the most advisory or capital raising deal flow in this vertical.
Thanks in advance.

From what I know, a lot of the Gaming and Lodging groups are based out of the West Coast (LA in particular) while some firm's have specific industry groups in NY too. Barclays and Macquire in LA have the largest exposure to the industry but the MS, CS and Laz office in this region also cover this vertical. In NY, BAML has a REG&L group.
Appeal of working in the Gaming and Lodging Group (Originally Posted: 11/10/2010)
What's the Appeal of working in the Gaming and Lodging Group as opposed to some others? It seems like this group has an allure of excitement. But what are some industry specific reasons why you would choose this group?
You get to go to Vegas a bunch
Less deal flow...
Exactly
Since when did less deal flow = appeal? Fuckin retards.
Only appeal would be cool dili trips, IMO.
macau, vegas
I know an analyst that worked on the Playboy IPO. Is that not reward enough?
Why would that be in this vertical?
Money and bitches.
Exit opps at Blizzard and EA = access to the finest ComicCon honeys
^Oops, my bad. Why the fuck would playboy have anything to do with this? I need some sleep.
That was 10 years ago btw. I don't know what happened to him.
Growth of gaming and lodging in Macau, Singapore and all over Asia (wherever else they allow it) is going to be huge over the next 20 years... great group!
Gaming Groups (Originally Posted: 02/06/2011)
Which banks have solid gaming groups? Are the offices mostly out of LA?
Lazard LA has a very solid gaming group.
might be a dumb question but are you talking about video games or (i presume) vegas style gaming
Casinos
interested...anyone else with experience?
Is gaming usually grouped with lodging/hotel/RE groups? Are there any banks with large presence in NY?
I think CS LA? I'm not sure, but I'd think most of the best groups are in LA since Vegas is close. (wynn, mgm, and lvs)
