The best analysts get recruited to the buyside. Would say 10-20% stay behind or get wooed by the MDs selling them dreams of constant pitches and stacks of cash. Nobody is entitled to the buyside, and these roles are very difficult to procure. This is one thing a lot of analysts don’t realize until they go through the interviews and jump through all the hoops. With that said, more people are staying because MFs have been increasing their analyst classes and direct promoting from within, thus less demand for banking talent.
