Are REGL and LDCM best in NYC? And what is your definition of best?

I'll be interning there this summer, and haven't done group selection yet. I have contacts in the REGL group, but don't feel super "passionate" about real estate lol. Do you think I should still opt for REGL -- i.e. will I get good deal experience, and what do you think are the exit opps? Is it known on the street?

 

Well DB is in trouble so everything is in flux right now and as they fall apart, who knows. Think their DCM and LevFin business is still strong and from what I understand, a lot of those guys got tagged with those retention bonuses so the mass exodus was somewhat more limited. Think their Real Estate group might also be intact, but pretty much everything else is already really suffering. Little stronger in EMEA but it's rough going at DB in NY. My advice is don't go there if you have another option.
