LMM IB with gd deal flow vs MM IB with bad deal flow (London)
Hi guys,
Currently deciding between 2 FT offers after I graduate in a few months and would love to get some insiders' view.
MM IB - think (Stifel/Natixis/Stephens) - I know which team I am placed in and I know that the team has been struggling with deal flow and isn't well-renowned - maybe 1 deal a year, 100-300m EV. Autonomy and exposure to deal(s) should be good I think
LMM IB - think classic LMM "corporate finance" shops - very strong deal flow, I will be involved in 5+ per year, brand name is no-name and deals are all below £100m EV but autonomy/exposure is much stronger than most IB experiences
For future IB recruiting, to step up to MM like RJ/WB/HL/etc. which would be better for getting a foot in the door? Thanks guys!
I always recommend MM over LMM, there’s no comparison in terms of brand recognition and getting foot in doors. Deal flow is secondary imo.
Useful to know thank you. Anyone else able to echo this point / contrast?
