2007 Investment Banking Bonus Data

IB 보너스 시즌이 되면서 이미 보너스를 발표한 회사들도 있고 아직 발표를 기다리는 회사들도 있습니다.  여태까지 Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Lehman Brothers 등이 발표했고, 아직 많은 회사들이 발표를 기다리고 있습니다.

Dealmaker라는 잡지사에서 예상 보너스 수치를 조사해서 발표했습니다.  최근 몇년간 이런 회사들의 예측치와 실제 결과를 보면 거의 항상 적중했던 것으로 기억합니다.

Dealmaker - 2007 Bonus Data Exclusive

Bankers learn who's been naughty and nice.

By: Erica Copulsky
November/December 2007

Watch Erica Copulsky on CNBC discuss the bonuses.

'Tis the reason why bankers work round the clock all year: bonus season. After spending the last several weeks in closed-door management huddles calculating pay, a few of Wall Street's biggest firms---including Goldman Sachs and Lehman Brothers-- are starting to dole out bonus figures to their troops. Meanwhile, others that plan to tell staffers next week how big their pay packages are still scrambling to lock down their numbers. However, based on the preliminary numbers obtained exclusively by Dealmaker, a few things have become clear: For the mere mortals, life will be status quo; bonuses will be in line with last year's. For the superstars, paychecks will be slightly heavier, as Wall Street picks the pockets of the poor performers to take care of its top of class. And then there's Goldman, which this year is in a category all by itself. To the rest of Wall Street's dismay, Goldman's numbers are off the charts, which is why we literally left them off Dealmaker's chart.

Here's a peek at what to expect:
