Is the banking boom sustainable?

How we calculated the investment banking Champions League table


AT FIRST GLANCE, investment banking and international football may appear strange bedfellows. But they have much in common.

Investment banking is the pinnacle of finance. It’s where the superstars play. The rewards are immense. So is the pressure. The more lurid sections of the media are obsessed with how much the star players earn. There’s a constant battle to hold on to the best talent, and unending speculation about who might be about to move where.

All that might sound familiar to a footballer plying his trade in one of Europe’s leading leagues. Then again, they call football the global game. As financial boundaries collapse, no business is more global than the international capital markets.
