Rankings
League tables as the publishers print them, not as the banks quote them. Full year 2025, from LSEG's own review PDFs. Most firms are first at something, given enough footnotes.
Global announced M&A, financial advisers

Ranks are positions among all banks in the publisher's table; banks outside this site's list are omitted, which is why numbers skip. UK-involvement tables, ECM, IPO and debt rankings for 2023 to 2026 are in the data and will each get a column.
No decision should be taken on the strength of a table, and counsel expects that several will be.
