Axial is excited to release its Q3 2023 Lower Middle Market InvestmentBanking League Tables. These quarterly league tables reveal the top 25 investmentbanks active on the Axial platform in Q3. In Q3, 571 sell-side investmentbanks and M&A advisors brought a total of 2,360 deals to market.
We were originally very equity heavy back in the day, and we made a lot of investments on the fixed income side. We entered the liquid alts market with hedgefunds back in 1994, and we entered the private market in 2014 with my product in late stage growth. So fixed income is now a substantial percentage of our assets.
Well, you have to have a certain track record, be around for certain length of period, be able to check all of their duediligence boxes, and that takes time and money. They could have been in investmentbanking. WEAVER: Yeah. And I checked zero of those boxes. RITHOLTZ: Right. Dorm room, check. What else we got?
Nobody in the world writes about markets, finance derivatives, hedgefunds, you name it, the way Matt does. It was underwriting, you know, it was like doing investmentbanking, underwriting public offerings. 00:33:08 Who, who is advising him to waive duediligence? Yeah,00:26:25 It’s over.
And that was very important because when this was the dawning of what is now a big analyst program across the country in all banks and investmentbanks. There was no m and a departments in any investmentbank really until the very late seventies. And I was fortunate to be accepted to both.
It was between corporate law and investmentbanking. RITHOLTZ: So even back then, when it was the size that you could take a Christmas picture with everybody in one room at Goldman, they’re still doing investmentbanking. RITHOLTZ: Oh, really? KLINSKY: Yeah. They’re trading. They’re advising clients.
I mean, how is the CFP Board even going through a process of duediligence, again, innocent till proving guilty in the sense when they have all kinds of disclosures, but at the same time, they’re publicly reprimanding 40 people, 80 people, whatever the number is, in a given year, out of the tens of thousands.
I was actually running the InvestmentBanking Club at BYU, and you know, thought I was interested in that, interested in going to Wall Street. And that’s enough time to get to know a space, and to get to know a sector, and to get to know a company and decide if you want to make an investment or not. LAYTON: Yeah.
There were financial experiments where the borrower hadn’t been through duediligence. So that, that sort of put Amherst on a different pact because prior to that, our core business model was investmentbanking, brokerage market making, and underwriting. The LTV was very high.
KOENIGSBERGER: — you know, when I got to Merrill in 1995, and you looked at the trade blotter of who you were trading with, it was basically banks trading with each other. So there was a tremendous amount of proprietary trading, you know, hedgefunds in the back book, a little bit of a front book.
Among client segments, we also had a strong quarter with hedgefunds and wealth managers as we grew our firmwide subscription run rate growth by 15% and 12%, respectively, excluding FX. We also completed large index deals with two of the world's top investmentbanks, which Baer will discuss shortly.
Over 20 years ago, I used to invest in top hedgefunds for CDPQ and had to conduct thorough investment and operational risk duediligence and fraud was a major concern. Spent most of his career, until then, on an investmentbanking desk. Good luck to him Good luck to him?
It’s because they wanted to get back at the hedgefunds. We’re going to bring the hedgefunds down, which is interesting because some of the biggest hedgefunds were making money from this. DAMODARAN: We’re going to do our duediligence. We also tell them to do duediligence.
I would never recommend investing blindly without duediligence because large hedgefundsinvest over different time horizons than most retail investors and with distinct goals. I also think the environment for banking has improved dramatically. Should you invest $1,000 in Citigroup right now?
