Thoughts on Deloitte Financial Advisory?
What are your opinions on the financial advisory arm of Deloitte? Good exit opportunities? Possibly to IB?
One thing I'm particularly confused about is whether this counts as corporate finance?
Which part are you interested in? There has been a lot of restructuring, and I think the name FAS is being phased out, but corporate finance is the actual IB arm (directly transferable), but there's also Valuation and Financial Risk and Transformation (the former is fairly transferable but the latter is more consulting for the controllership).
The grad role I'm interested is literally just called, 'Financial Advisory'. I would post a link to the job ad on Deloitte but I'm not allowed to as I'm a new member here.
I've pasted a key section of the role description:
The Opportunity
This is intellectually challenging, varied and exciting work that appeals to the brightest and most capable people. Professionals in this area tend to specialise, to offer clients the most in -depth expertise.
Advisory / Merger & Acquisitions. In Advisory, you’ll support clients through mergers and acquisitions (M&A), Government & Infrastructure and with capital transactions. Which can include everything from valuing companies for sale, to business modelling, to economic consulting to HEART. Forensic: Within Forensic Technology and Financial Crime, you’ll use your skills to combat fraud, bribery and corruption, anti-money laundering, international sanctions, and intellectual property disputes. (You will find Forensic Technology job in the Technology Job Family). Restructuring Services. In Restructuring we focus on companies in financial distress, whether underperforming or insolvent. You’ll step in to help and advise, and even run the company. Transaction Services – Post Merger integration: This team provides both due diligence and post deal advisory services across a range of areas (i.e., Integrations, separations, operations, performance improvement, and technology) on transactions. Which means you’ll be helping clients who are planning to buy, sell or take-over businesses to assist with the execution of the deal. These are often large global deals with high profile clients.
I see--out of those that you listed, Advisory/M&A would be the most relevant to IB. At least in the US, they rebranded Financial Advisory as just Advisory, and valuation is under Transactions and Business Analytics.
