When the results of the All-Russia Research Team survey are added to the totals of this year’s previously published rankings, Bank of America Merrill Lynch maintains a slender lead over Deutsche Bank on Institutional Investor’s Top Global Research Firms: Year to Date roster. BofA Merrill has 138 positions; Deutsche, 134.
The latter firm’s cumulative total gets a big boost from Deutsche Bank’s strong showing on the Russia team: It finishes in third place overall, with seven positions, and is the highest-ranked non-Russian bank in that survey. BofA Merrill wins only one position and lands in a four-way tie for tenth place (with Alfa-Bank, Morgan Stanley and Otkritie Financial Corp.).
UBS, with a cumulative total of 104 positions, defends the No. 3 spot it has held since April. Two firms, however, are breathing down its neck: J.P. Morgan and Morgan Stanley tie for fourth place overall, with 100 positions each.
Institutional Investor will update this table in early August with the results of the Latin America and All-Brazil research teams. Those are two of the only four such rankings yet to be published this year; the others are the All-America Fixed-Income Research Team and the All-America Research Team.
