Guggenheim retail NYC
thanks, Guggenheim is pretty well known, looking for a bit more unknown
LionTree, Union Square, Cain Brothers
Realistically though most investment banks involved in marquee transactions are very well known - a Board of Directors is not going to risk getting litigated for a blown process by hiring a non-household name investment bank
any idea how to apply to liontree?
They do OCR at Wharton and other targets I guess, but they don't even have a functional website so I don't think you can just apply if they have no staff dedicated to your university.
Most "households" don't know what investment banks are
It's an expression...household name for the business community
Please dear god never refer to it as "Cali"
Best boutiques by industry/geography:
NYC:
TMT: Qatalyst, Raine, LionTree
Consumer/Retail: PJSC, Financo
Healthcare: Cain Brothers, MTS Health Partners, Leerink
Qatalyst is only in SF
I have worked on some deals with FTPartners, they are a boutique specialized in FinTech. They have very strong dealflow in that sector. I believe they have offices in both New York and on the west coast.
Cain Brothers is shit
Intrepid Investment Bankers, Harris Williams (more middle market, not boutique), Greentech Capital Advisors, Headwaters MB, GCA Savvian, B Riley, DA Davidson, Trinity Capital, Imperial Capital
Never call it "Cali"
Is there any way you could provide some more information on Intrepid? I'm looking at them for full-time
You can't just "apply" to these firms, most of them operate via head hunters and don't have consistently checked online career portals.
With that said, the way in isn't via applying online but through networking and keeping in touch with your contacts at the firm in the hope of being taken into consideration should a position open up and -- alternatively -- through being contacted by a head hunter.
Also, when employing a head hunter these shops will typically look for someone that's already completed 1+ year as an analyst at a different firm.
NY Boutique banks (Originally Posted: 11/07/2014)
I am going to be in NY in a week and a half, what boutiques should I cold call, to see if I can set up an appointment
this is for summer internships though. there are no head hunters for interns
You'd be surprised
Most of these firms use OCR. I know for a fact Intrepid IB, Greentech Capital Advisors, GCA Savvian, B Riley, DA Davidson use OCR for interns
All of them? Any of them you would potentially want to work for?
OCR makes sense, my point was that for both interns and FT, applying on their websites is typically a bad option. And that is if they even have an online careers portal to begin with.
