CIM layout
Hi guys,
a quick question! What is your opinion regarding the CIM layout? Vertical, horizontal? What would be the standard? Any suggestions?
Thanks!

My bank does pretty much all presentations now so we call them CIPs. Just standard horizontal slides that we'll end up stripping down for an MP with some tweaks / potential adds.
All of the CIMs I have seen and worked so far were horizontal PPT files.
I have never seen a vertical file. Sometimes you might have vertical's for internal memos and teasers, but external CIM's are horizontal always.
Not always. Have seen some smaller IB's go vertical. However, horizontal is definitely the industry standard.
This. Word typically used when more prose / flowy text and industry descriptions. Horizontal (PPT) more standard with tons of charts
Maybe the term CIM is being used differently, but I have number Company Information Memorandums from JPM, BMO, Huntington, PNC, etc all in a vertical format to be read like a book, left to right
Presentations at a bank meeting have all been horizontal like a slide deck, meant to be flipped pages up.
My experience is that CIM/CIP is interchangeable.
Portrait Mode - rare, lots of text / flowery language on industry. makes more sense in a portrait word-doc type.
Landscape Mode - the usual, used for 90%+ of initial "CIMs/CIPs" I've seen
CIMs I do and see are all vertical in word with except charts pasted in. Bank books for meetings are horizontal and usually PPT. If I have done it make I insist on word.
My bank usually does a mix of both depending on the situation. Vertical if we really want to dive into the segments of the business and write more and horizontal if the transaction is a bit more time-sensitive
Horizontal PPT slide(s) is the standard IME.

People are confusing different CIMs. Ones Anothony talking about are lending ones (high yield term loan in most cases) - those are mostly word doc (vertical) with lender presentation in horizontal PPT. What others are talking about are (private company) sell side CIPs. Those used to be vertical word doc (still is for some places, like Harris Williams), but most have transitioned to PowerPoint (horizontal) and interchangeably used with management presentation by adding or modifying certain slides.
