BB Ranks ranked by Buyside Opps
Hey All,
I understand that general BB rankings take into account a lot of factors. However, I want to zero in simply on the buyside-opps factor.
So let me know how you rank the BB's by exit opportunities below!

Your exits are completely based on your group and specific deal experience. This list doesn't mean jack.
DB > UBS but otherwise agree
The top group at DB is probably better than the top group at UBS, but on average UBS is stronger than DB right now. Not to mention the new CEO is ramping up their IBD.
Also, I'm happy to hear my first and ONLY ranking is solid.
A better question btw would have been what on the job experiences will get you the best PE offer, and which banks are most conducive to making that possible
Why the MS?
If you work at a BB you’ll get looks. Obviously product groups at the banks that have them and certain coverage groups likes GS TMT will place better on average due to a history of attracting top candidates but notice the word “candidates” there. You can get an offer at any of these banks, but if you can’t articulate your experiences and reasons for PE well don’t expect to have an easy time in recruiting.
I hate these kind of threads. I lot of it has to deal with being in a good group that allows for good modeling experience. Barclays tmt analysts will probably do better than a GS dcm guy.
I know a guy who was a pm at a mm hf, and what he recommended was just to be in a m&a, hc, tmt, or cr group that models.
In my experience it actually has almost nothing to do with modeling. The group does have to be good / decent in terms of deal flow, but the models PE shops run aren't half as complex as the crazy stuff banks do. Sure, you have to be able to pass the modeling test if the PE firm has one but i've seen several people with MF exits from "non-modeling groups"
