Lazard's Capital Markets Advisory

First post on here!

I have been trying very hard to find out more about Lazard's Capital Markets Advisory group, but so far I only know it is relatively new. It would be much appreciated if someone could shed some light on the nature of this group and the culture. Thank you!

Any other thoughts on this group? How common are groups like this? I don't see a ton of comparable groups to this out there, but that may just be a naming convention issue. That is, I suppose other investment banks have roles like this, but they may not sit in a formal group.

They may not be separated out, but many BBs and EBs do this. Boss came from a top M&A group and they would do lots of this work.

The purpose? You are first in line when it comes sell side, buy side or financing/refinancing work. I'm not sure if it is still the case, but some of the work was done pro bono while some was a "consulting" arrangement.

 

Hi Dan Bush, nice to see you back. Hate to derail your thread, but I actually have a question for you: Did you create your current screenname because you fantasize about being a big, husky lacrosse player named David? Do you find yourself sitting around on lonely nights wishing you could pledge with the lacrosse fraternity so that you can spend your time engaging in homoerotic activities with a bunch of sweaty "jakked" (as you like to say) student athletes?

See you at the gym dude. Don't give up on that dream. One day you're gonna be so ripped and good looking that you can just waltz into any Wall Street job despite your low IQ and GPA.

Oh, sorry if it didn't go through. Let me paste it again, let me know if it's still not showing up:

Excuse me, but who the hell do you think you are? Actually, don't answer that, for I think I may be able to offer a few possibilities. 1. Maybe you're a failed lacrosse player and every time you see or hear "lax" you have some sort of chemical reaction in your brain that makes you convulse in the form of ridiculous message board posts. 2. Maybe you get a hard on every time a "sweaty" or "jakked" (improperly spelled by you, "MD") lacrosse player walks by. 3. Maybe you sucked off Dan and he never returned the favor. -or finally, you are what you type, as it were. So maybe it is indeed a lonely night and YOU are the one fantasizing about this David, "big, husky lacrosse player." Anyhow, Mark Klein, "MD" please take your bullshit of a life elsewhere and stop posting useless, senseless, and general shit on my forum.

 

HAHA Okay Dan Bush. As for your 3 completely illogical points:

  1. "convulse in the form of ridiculous message board posts" - What does that mean exactly? Convulsing is trembling or shaking; like tremors. Trust me on this one...I'm a doctor.

  2. What makes you think I get a hard-on from that? You're the one who changed your screenname to "big dave LAX." Not me.

  3. Do you normally refer to yourself in the 3rd person? Let me remind you: You ARE dan bush. And no, I didn't "suck you off." This is the internet, so that would be impossible.

See you at the gym man. We're gonna take wall street by storm when we get totally jacked!

HAha, classic dan bush:

  1. Referring to a thread as a "post." NOBODY else does that, but Dan Bush has done it so many freaking times.

  2. A "your mom" joke.

If you are Dan Bush and you keep filling the forums with crap I can now ban IP addresses with the new upgrade. so please try to keep it civil boys - the leash is much shorter this time around.

  • threads like these are one of the main reasons we need to introduce a certification tool to WSO.

...and delegate more moderators.

for those that do not know, Dan Bush is the epitomy of trolling: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll

 

OMG, I don't know what is going on here. All I want is for Jimbo to answer my question. I didn't incite any of this. I just posted my question as anybody would do and before I knew it some crazy started accusing me of being some guy I don't even know. Please just clear this so Jimbo can answer tomorrow!

 

Dan Bush/BigDave: You are the one using cuss words, not me. You are an absolute nut case and you need to lay off the 'roids. I also think you may be in denial and should see a therapist if you think that choosing a fake name like "big dave LAX" is something any straight person would do. Seriously, get a life and stop acting like you "don't know" who dan bush is.

EDIT: hilarious. "bigdavelax" just edited his profile. It used to say "yalie" under the School tab, and now it says Columbia. What a paranoid freak, trying so hard to cover up his identity on an already-anonymous messageboard.

By the way, congratulations Dan. This thread was a killer success. Way to keep it cool when you're the one asking people for advice.
