GlobalData lead analyst Aurojyoti Bose said: “JP Morgan was among the only two advisers to surpass $10bn in total deal value during H1 2024.

“It faced tough competition from Goldman Sachs for the top position by value. While JP Morgan managed to lead the table, Goldman Sachs missed the top position by a whisker.

“Rothschild & Co and Lazard were the only two advisers with double-digit deal volume during H1 2024. Apart from leading by volume, Rothschild & Co also occupied the third position by value during the review period.”
