In global transaction banking, as elsewhere, Bank of America Merrill Lynch is reaping the benefits of a more unified culture that has senior Merrill investment bankers working closely and collaboratively with their corporate and transaction banking brethren to win banking business. Such is the relationship between them, business is flowing the other way too. It hasn’t been easy. There has been blood. But it does appear to be working.
“It is literally every single person trying to help to win a deal,” says Paul Simpson, head of global transaction services at BAML in New York.
