No-name Bank Description on Resume

Hi Monkeys,

I worked as an equity research analyst at a nationally top 3 (assets, revenue, profit) and well-known IB but no-name in another country where I wanna apply for jobs.

Is it of merit to add a company description next to the company name (maybe 1- smaller font) and say something like "top 3 full-service IB with X AUM"?

Also, what about a newly established VC (AUM could be found nowhere although I worked there for a very short period of time)?

Thx.
