HLHZ FAS vs. BMO Capital Markets
The end goal is to either hope over to a BB or Lazard type boutique and stay in banking (with BMO, I could stay there if I like it or go back to b school after) or to go to PE. Thanks.
Choose BMO Capital Markets.
Houlihan Lokey is great in middle market - but FAS is not the same as their Corporate Finance/ M&A / Restructuring groups. The work is very different (it's work like fairness opinions/valuations). Skill set in FAS limit your exit ops to other more traditional IB groups elsewhere.
i would agree with the above
Thanks, anyone else have an opinion?
If you were considering HLHZ corp fin vs BMO, I would say HL all the way, but since it's FAS you should really go with BMO to get the deal experience. FAS is a lot more valuation than regular banking. When did you receive your offer from BMO and when was your Superday?
Thanks. The superday was last weekend. Does anyone see any logic in working in FAS for a year and then leveraging the HLHZ name to jump to a different bank, or moving to Corporate Finance in a year internally?
To be honest, I would take most groups at BMO over HL Corporate Finance. Have any idea what group(s) you'd be assigned to?
^^^Why would you take BMO over HL Corp fin? I may have to make that decision soon and an curious as to your reasoning. I feel like if you want to do pure M&A advisory, HL is the way to go, would you agree?
Well, first of all, are you being interviewed for Chicago positions for both firms? What group(s) at BMO are you interviewing with? Also, are you looking to exit to PE?
Strong BMO groups I'd consider over HL: Food Consumer & Retail, M&A, Financial Sponsors, and Healthcare.
Nah HL Corporate Advisory > BMO Corporate Advisory hands down. Given they are both MM it makes sense to go to the top MM shop.
