Great work/life balance for an Investment Bank

Hello, I came here because one friend works in an investment bank and like many, he works more than 90 hours per week. Leaving the jokes you can make about it aside, I'm very worried about him and I fear for his life, so I want to know if someone here knows which investment banks have a better work/life balance than that, maybe 60 hours tops per week, please.
