Private credit (and thus hiring) is on the rise and shows no signs of slowing down! Major institutions like GSAM - seeking double their private credit exposure - and the partnership between Wells and Citi to mutually expand ultimately indicates additional talent needs to keep up with demand. Experienced PM and Distribution hires are crucial to continue growth and innovation, and firms are certainly competing for them.

Private bankers want to be dealmakers and Wealth Management Is the Order of the Day For this classic investment banking offer, the institution has poached leading players from the business: the newly recruited employees come from American institutions Goldman Sachs and Bank of America. Meanwhile, at Goldman Sachs, the epitome of a powerful US investment bank, wealth management is the order of the day. Bank chief David Solomon has personally designated this division, which includes institutional business, as the primary growth driver for the firm. Currently, one-third of every dollar Goldman Sachs earns comes from wealth management; if the CEO's vision comes to fruition, this proportion will soon be significantly higher. Private bankers want to be dealmakers However, this self-image is beginning to crack. Powerful Wall Street firms are pushing into wealth management, and noble private bankers also want to be dealmakers. This shift is evident at the Brazilian-Swiss private bank J. Safra Sarasin, a bastion of discretion with a long history in Basel’s high society. As reported by finews.ch on Tuesday, the institution has now hired a new team in London, Europe's investment banking hub, to explicitly advise wealthy entrepreneurs on mergers and acquisitions (M&A).

Bain & Company forecasts that the wealth management industry in the United States will grow by more than $230 billion in revenue from 2021 to 2030, a compelling gold rush opportunity.

Community financial institutions (CFI) can participate in the growth of the wealth management business as well. For CFIs the launch of a wealth management offering does not have to be risky or expensive. At Polaris Financial we offer community banks and credit unions a turnkey wealth management program. Program components include dedicated financial advisors, robust digital platform, wide range of investment options, and a program success manager / support.

Over two decades ago, an investment bank introduced a rule limiting pitch books to 20 pages, called “Thin to Win.” The aim was to ease the workload for junior bankers and improve client presentations, based on studies showing audiences lost focus after 10 pages and remembered only three main points. Despite its promising start, the initiative lasted just a month. Competing banks’ 80-page presentations with extensive appendices made clients perceive longer decks as a sign of greater commitment, leading to the abandonment of “Thin to Win.” https://lnkd.in/gfV9q-Q5

There is a space for growing of Wealth Management, trading and investment banking industries.

Did you know mid-level hiring in picking up in the Investment and private Equity space? 🤔 🔦 As part of this week's Investment and Private Equity focused content, Stavros Zangoulos wanted to share this interesting Reuters article with our followers. 💬 He commented: "2023 was a challenging year for Private Equity, highlighted by a drop off in M&A activity. However, this is now picking up as M&A dealmaking increased in Q1. This has also led to banks like GS and JPM stepping up in the Private Equity lending market as they look to take advantage of the gap left by troubled regional banks as well as the sale of CS. We are seeing a lot more hiring across Investment Banking and Private Equity compared to last year, particularly across the mid-level (Associate/VP)". https://lnkd.in/eYduU7pJ #privateequity #credit #dealmaking #opinion #thoughtleadership #regionalbanks

Of all the many curious things about investment banking, the titles it gives people are not the least. “Managing directors” who are not directors of any company and don’t manage anything. “Vice-presidents” who carry bags and take minutes. “Executive directors” who are mid-level bureaucrats. But perhaps the weirdest of all is the profusion of “co-heads”. Since the MD and VP titles are almost meaningless, you might think that global co-head is also either a vanity title or a piece of marketing. That’s not quite true. “Head of X”, in investment banking contexts, is often a vanity title; it just indicates there’s nobody more senior in the X business for that bank, which might not mean much. However, “co-head” at least implies that being head of X is sufficiently important that more than one person wanted it. And banks love their co-head structures. Or at least, they love to hate them; Citigroup is currently in the middle of a big project to remove layers of management, and Goldman Sachs recently had quite a nasty internal conflict partly driven by a situation in which one co-head was appointed to an important committee and the other wasn’t. Craig Coben has detailed the carefully calibrated decorum required for it to function (ish) https://lnkd.in/dc64ZQ2e
