What will I-Banking look like in 10-20 years?

Hey monkeys,

Just curious what you guys think will happen to investment banking in the future.

Do you guys think it will drastically change? Do you guys think it will be the same as it is now? Other thoughts?

IB headcount will likely decrease further slightly and if there's a recession maybe 2-3 years out from this stage, very, very little hiring or at least conversion rates to full time offers for interns will happen.

That being said, please don't be one of those kids wanting to get into IB since high school, no one will want to work with you.
