Financial Sponsors Modelling

I've read somewhere that in general FSG does less modeling than industry coverage groups, even though there are banks where FSG is more modeling-intensive.

I was wondering whether anyone knows whether how are things at CS FSG London? I know that it's their one of the best groups, but they have recently split LFSG onto LF and FSG, so I am interested whether it affected the work the group does.

Thank you for your replies!
