Hello Monkeys,
Does anyone have any useful/concrete information on them? They're the boutique investment banking/advisory arm of Willis - a massive reinsurance broker. I was hard pressed to find anything on them on the web or on this site (I don't think there is any information on them whatsoever)
Helpful information would be:
Thanks.

PM me for more info but for everyone's benefit: Culture - Very intense, long hours and long weekends (you should expect this but it's a nice bonus when you find a firm with better hours) Size/Quality - ~25 guys if I remember right Deal Flow - All insurance deals obviously, some reinsurance it sounded like Comp. - Street Interview - About prior experience and valuation, not insurance industry specific Exit Opps - Unknown by me, not sure there Reputation - Not well known on the street (it's a relatively new team over there) but not necessarily a bad thing
Thanks a lot.

Any thoughts on Willis? There's not much on them so far.
Be great to get some insights on: management culture dealflow comp leadership exit opps
I found this guy (LiboredMonks) 's reply on a similar question in 2012, I added something new according to what I've known so far:
Culture - Very intense, long hours and long weekends (you should expect this but it's a nice bonus when you find a firm with better hours) Size/Quality/management - ~25 guys if I remember right (32 people now I believe, led by Michael Guo in HK and Rafal Walkiewicz in NY, Walkiewicz is a pretty experienced investment banker, used to work for Goldman) Deal Flow - All insurance deals obviously, some reinsurance it sounded like Comp. - Street Interview - About prior experience and valuation, not insurance industry specific Exit Opps - Unknown by me, not sure there Reputation - Not well known on the street (it's a relatively new team over there) but not necessarily a bad thing
I am going to intern for them at their HK office this summer. Very excited about it!
