London Banks and University Pipelines

Hey,

Wanted to start a discussion on any trends or visible pipelines that we see in the London market with respect to banks. See a lot of discussion on this forum about how certain US colleges and even clubs feed into pipelines where analysts from that school hires their undergrads etc.
 

Was wondering if there was a similar phenomenon in the UK with UK universities. My initial thoughts are:

Obviously no point in stating LSE or HEC because they are everywhere in large numbers across the street. Just thought that these examples are were the schools are punching above their weight and there seems to be a thing where X bank likes Y school or Z profile

There's like 20 people from Warwick in evercore. Not a typical "feeder" , but still strong. 

I'd say Exeter JPM is a decent example 

When it comes to masters the likes of Hec lse bocconi lbs escp imperial st gallen are feeders to almost all top BBs
