Unbiased EB Rankings

1. EVR , CVP M&A, Qatalyst, PJT RSSG, LAZ

• I get that LAZ might be dying and all but the legacy name brand still is largely in tact in for On-cycle recruiting. 

2. Moelis, PWP, PJT (M&A), CVP Rx

• From an M&A perspective I just can never understand why PWP and PJT aren't tiered the same when their business model is literally identical (PWP with a higher Revenue Per Partner in M&A and they are always in line with each other for league table rankings). Maybe its because PWP takes a lot more non-targets or PJT M&A has a more consistent exiting class.

3. GHL, (If you wanna count rothschild since rothschild and greenhill do similar profile deals in the US)

4. Industry Boutiques (Raine, Liontree, Ardea, Tidal(?))

Guggenheim and Jefferies basically function as bulge brackets since they have balance sheets and they both have trading arms. So League Tables is tricky because sometimes they can just get league table credit for providing balance sheet work...
