Executive Summary

In 1Q23, Coalition Index Investment Banking revenues decreased (9)% on a YoY basis.

  • IBD: Continued weakness in IBD, with YoY decline most pronounced in M&A and DCM
  • Equities: Revenue decline driven by strong normalization in EQD and significantly lower volumes in Cash Equities, which was partially offset by robust performances in Futures
  • FICC: FICC revenues were stable as improved performance in Spread products (especially Credit) was offset by decline in Macro products (particularly FX and Commodities)
