Wells Fargo Vs. Macquarie Vs. Mizuho SA 2024

Was fortunate enough to receive offers from these firms during this cycle. Does anyone have any insights in terms of which firm would be better for next summer? All are based out of NY. Wells and Mizuho are TMT group, and Mac is gaming group. Which one would have better exits and also a higher possibility of FT/lateraling to another bank in the future? Appreciate any advice!

I’d say if you want exposure to advisory, it would be between Macquarie or WF. Between the two, I am not familiar enough with the groups so take this lightly. I know Macquarie has a good Infra team that places well into pe… From what I know with their gaming group, they get solid deal flow and they pay the street. They also work with some big name MFs. I don’t know a lot about WF’s TMT group, but I’m guessing it’s sturdy with solid MM PE exits.

 

Wells Fargo ramped up their TMT team with the new hires. I have seen both Mizuho and Macquarie on deals recently ( Miz and Mac on a software deal). However, in terms of future outlooks, Wells’ aggressive expansion will probably show results. 

 

Wells is far better than the other two

so mizuho is bringing on a bunch of GHL MDs that have underperformed for a decade and that’s suppose to make them better ?? The good MDs that they did have are out soon too
