I swear someone made this exact same thread 6 months ago and the answer is no
Jpm love their Europeans
For covering Europe. What is your point?
Based on the most helpful WSO content, the UK target school list for investment banking has remained relatively consistent over the years. The top targets are typically Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, and LBS, with UCL, Warwick, and Imperial often categorized as targets or low targets depending on the source. Semi-targets include schools like Durham, Bristol, Nottingham, St Andrews, Bath, and KCL, among others.
While the JP Morgan SA London Class Profile from October 2025 might show some shifts in representation, it’s important to note that these lists are not static. Variations in class profiles can occur due to factors like changes in recruitment strategies, diversity initiatives, or specific hiring needs for a given year. However, the core schools mentioned above have consistently been recognized as strong feeders into IB roles in London.
If the class profile you saw suggests a significant change, it could reflect a broader trend or a one-off anomaly, but the traditional UK target schools remain highly regarded for IB recruitment.

No KCL?
Might be in others.
JP loves their Europeans. It’s why it’s a pretty miserable place to work. I like Oxbridge PPE’s, hardo LSE and Warwick internationals and the occasional St Andrews nepo baby for the London office. Good mix.
