Rothschild is publicly traded though only 40% float.
Yeah idk. Rothschild is a well-known volume shop that churns through mid-market deals like crazy so I doubt that there isn't pressure to bring in deals 24/7. The point about being advisory-only applies to any EB and makes it potentially harder for aspiring MDs to build client relationships since you have a smaller product suite.
To add, they do have a lot of $1+ billion deals as well and not just middle market ones
