What is Deutsche Bank doing in the Americas?
DB currently ranks #35 in NA, with only 4.7 billions of M&A completed in 2026 while other BBs like Citi & Barclays completed 182 billions and 48 billions of M&A. DB's IBD first-year analyst class is similar to Citi's, which is around 70-80. What are people at DB working on everyday?

Capital Raises
Selling subprime MBS and shorting SaaS debt
It’s a debt shop. Capital raises/refinancing are the main revenue driver at the Americas office. Same as BNP, RBC, and MUFG.
Have they really done almost nothing in M&A? I feel like previous years even if they haven’t been the best they’ve at least been higher than 35th
probably this...
Apparently the NY office re-opened their MBA summer associate program. Sad!
Congrats on BNP!
BNP > DB in the Americas
Lol best joke so far this year. No one cares about BNP in the US. Good luck getting 30% bonus.
Tell me one thing DB does better than BNP, specifically in IB in NY.
Globally, I'll agree DB is stronger. But in the US I think BNP is a stronger Euro based Investment Bank.
Bro BNP NY is just a satellite office supporting Euro offices and leads almost nothing. It's a debt shop like DB but check how many lev loans or HY bonds deals they led in the last 3 years. Also check how many M&A deals they were involved in. Heck they are not even in SpaceX IPO lol. DB at least does okay in Regal/Levfin/Sponsors/Industrials spaces and significantly better than BNP's.
Huge congrats on BNP!
Lol
You think this is a positive or a negative?
Saving all the idiot dregs and retard ABGs from my non-target Alma mater— who would fuck up a McDonalds super-day if not for softball behavioral questions and zero expectations.
I work in TMT with a crazy former UBS MD that loves to waste our time on overdone decks, the worst

I avoid those staffings at all costs
