Citi London - PE Exits

Only found outdated / US-specific threads so decided to make a new one. 

Looking for some insight into PE exits for Citi London. What are the best teams overall to maximise for PE exits? How is the situation relative to other BBs nowadays?

I’m former citi London alum. Spent time in both FIG and TMT. It’s been a decade plus, but look back very fondly at my time there. Both teams had great culture and deal flow. And many of my friends in my groups went to top MFs. It’s been a while so please don’t ask me to compare / contrast now. That said, citi London always had and still has a solid reputation in London pe circle
