Would move Greenhill down one tier to T4

What is this based on? Deal value or deal volume or prestige? based on M&A only or also ECM and DCM?

In terms of purely European M&A deal value:

move Greenhill to Tier 4 (mostly MM deals and often sourced through US)

move HSBC to Tier 3 (less deals than US BBs but large cap deals across M&A and very strong in ECM + DCM)

move CVP to Tier 4 (some high value but only through US sourced deals and very small deal teams but growing)

move Piper Sandler and William Blair to Tier 5 (mostly MM deals like HL but without restructuring expertise and more LMM)

would also add DC Advisory and Guggenheim in Tier 5 (Guggenheim recently started analysts and interns hiring in UK with plans to grow)

Mediobanca also strong, probably tier 3 for M&A atm

i see, would still stick to the above from what I've seen^

WB / Piper should go on T5

Greenhil T4

CVP T4 as well (nowhere near the US brand)

HSBC T3 

HSBC defo not T5, solid T3 pushing for T2

William Blair definitely not tier 3, tier 5 most likely

Would do tier 1.5 with roths laz BAML and citi

Tell me you don’t work in IB within Europe without telling me you don’t work in IB within Europe 

Roth T2

DB T3

Evercore T2

HL T3

CS T4 

Centerview closed the LVMH deal and no one mention it ?? 

Nomura Tier 3

Where would Santander be on this list?
