Equity Advisory Summer Analyst Programme 2021

Our Equity Advisory team is a key pillar of our Global Advisory business and is the market leading Equity Advisory team globally. It has been an independent adviser on over 430 equity offerings since 2009 with a combined deal value of over €390 billion, across the full spectrum of IPOs and other equity offerings.

• IPOs of AIB (€3.4bn), Innogy (€5bn), DONG Energy (€2.6bn), ABN AMRO (€3.8bn)
