How Have Advisory & Underwriting Fees For The Largest U.S. Investment Banks Changed In The Last Five Quarters?
Total advisory and underwriting fees for the five largest U.S. banks recovered substantially in Q2 2016 from the multi-year low seen in Q1 2016, and was also well above the lukewarm figures seen over the second half of 2015. But it was well below the extremely strong figures for Q2 2015.
Total Fees ($ mil) | Q2 2015 | Q3 2015 | Q4 2015 | Q1 2016 | Q2 2016 |
Goldman Sachs | 2,019 | 1,556 | 1,547 | 1,463 | 1,787 |
JPMorgan | 1,825 | 1,612 | 1,538 | 1,321 | 1,636 |
Bank of America | 1,580 | 1,327 | 1,311 | 1,203 | 1,454 |
Citigroup | 1,283 | 937 | 1,125 | 875 | 1,217 |
Morgan Stanley | 1,440 | 1,181 | 1,214 | 990 | 1,108 |
U.S. Top 5 Total | 8,147 | 6,613 | 6,735 | 5,852 | 7,202 |
Industry Total | 24,638 | 18,709 | 21,099 | 16,055 | 20,925 |
=> U.S. Top 5 as % of Total | 33% | 35% | 32% | 36% | 34% |
Notably, these five banks pocket roughly 35% of all investment banking fees globally in a quarter. Citigroup usually has the smallest wallet share among these banks, as it has a smaller presence in the global M&A as well as equity underwriting industries compared to its peers. But strong activity levels in Citigroup’s core focus area of debt origination for Q2 2016 helped the globally diversified banking giant edge ahead of Morgan Stanley this time around.
