What is EB?
I’m in tech so not super familiar with banking shorthand. I’ve seen a lot of banks on here, particularly the advisory firms, referred to as EB. What does that stand for? Probably something super obvious, I know.

Also probably a stupid question, but what's the current consensus on Guggenheim, Rothschild, Mizuho Greenhill, Jefferies, and HL being EBs or not? Always hear contradicting info about these.
Generally not EBs, Rothschild is an EB in Europe but not US. Gugg would be the closest one to an EB, but is probably not in that category.
I still feel like Greenhill places quite well no? Have seen great UMM + a handful of MF placements from them. Or is GHL just dead in the water atp.
Gugg and HL are EBs
UBS
Why didnt u just google it?
Genuine q btw
They’re elite boutiques. Firms that basically only do advisory. MOE/LAZ/PWP/EVR/CVP/PJT make up the clear ones while GUGG/ROTH are slightly controversial in the rankings.
