the US, french and japanese big banks are huge in transportation, especially auto.
french and japanese are bigger when it comes to rail and aviation
Agreed.
MS has a Transportation group in IBD. Very few banks have a dedicated Transpo group, GS and JPM for example lump it into Industrials (Diversified Industrials at JPM - that’s what their industrials group is called).
I think the group does generally do better in the sector than other banks. Very strong deal flow during normal times and it’s a big sell for clients that it’s a dedicated group to their sector vs lumped into industrials. That helps but the group and the senior bankers themselves are very respected.
MS is a solid shop but unfortunately they have lost their grasp of the market they used to have.
banks like GS, BofA, Citi, JPM, Credit Agricole, BNP, SocGen, MUFG, Mizuho, DB have a big focus in the space and have a very active DCM and Securitization pipeline (products which auto companies largely rely on)
Nah I don't think that's quite right. MS are one of the top teams on the street for Transpo. It's an extremely strong EMEA franchise, the global head also sits in London and he is a rockstar by all accounts.
not really true, MS has been the go to for a lot of the biggest names during the virus to raise funds. agreed people are catching up but it’s still the top for the most part
In the auto space for securitization the only banks that have good deal flow are: Citi (has a great relationship with Toyota) JP (JP has great auto coverage from corporates to SF)
BOA used to be up there but something has happened in the last two years and they barely underwrite auto ABS deals/equipment/transportation.
The other institutions that you mentioned will get an auto deal once in a while, most likely due to the issuer wanting to switch up underwriters and the lower fees other banks will charge. For a deal with any additional nuances, the issuer will almost always go to either JP or Citi.
I should mention Credit Suisse has a niche in bringing first time issuers to the space. One notable transaction is Carvana. However, outside of Carvana they don't get any other auto deal flow. Their focus is more on consumer abs, and convincing and leading issuers to securitize for the first time.
For aviation securitization, Goldman totally dominates this space, followed by MUFG. Credit Agricole has some exposure, very little compared to the other two. The rest don't have any deal flow.
