Hi everyone
What is the ranking for Transaction Services firms in London?
I heard PwC is number one, but a recruiter claims KPMG is number one.
Anyone who can put som light on this?

There really isn't that big of a difference between the big 4
Can anyone shed some light as to the difference in exit opportunities available to an audit aca who transfers to TS? Chance at IBD or Corp Dev? This is for uk
Both IDB and Cor Dev are possibilities. Its always competitive but if you get first time passes, work on good deals, perform well and know modelling cold (you will need to do your own homework on this as TS wont give you the required skills) then you are in with a really good shout (if not BB then definitely MM/Boutique).
There are often Cor Dev roles that prefer ACA to bankers but in general I still feel bankers probably get the pick of the top top roles.
Main thing is not to put yourself down...this is not the US and there are a huge number of ACA's in top roles in Finance in the city...your experience is different to that of a banker but in many ways just as good!
As for rankings....c'mon, Big 4 DD is a commodity, nobody gives a shit about rankings in Big 4.
From what I heard from UK colleagues and sitting in mainland Europe: yes, not a huge difference between them with regard to external reputation. However, I think it's fair to say that PwC and Deloitte have a better reputation for good quality and working with financial sponsors. KPMG is probably considered bottom of the big 4.
KPMG's audit is at the bottom but its Corp Fin/TS is the best of the 4. We've seen them on a couple of sizeable transactions (not yet seen any other big 4).
