This should give a rough idea, old data though

well the figures on the ibtalk site were like

£30-£40k for a graduate, and then it had bonuses ranging from £5-15k

ABN Amro = 38k plus benefits

don't look at graduate starting salaries too much as they'll be pretty different from what you'd be earning in a couple of years

True; but they give an indication of salary levels within IB relative to other areas. Agreed, this is all subject to change.

Get yourselves a copy of the Times top 100 graduate employers.

Has everything in there :smile:

BTW - for those of you wanting to do IB - you can get a better hourly wage as a builder in London. Remember to factor in your 95 hour weeks for that 40k over your first three years!

If you are front-office and earning 40k in your third year, I'd quit! That's the starting wage.

plus is that only CF hours? What are the hours of traders?

Seriously?? Then does it mean 13hrs for 7 days, or 15-16 hrs for 6 days a week..?? Do bankers need to rest? There is only 24hrs a day, excluding 1 hr for the journey to the company and back home, half an hr for shower and maybe makeup, then only 6.5hrs each day for free time and sleep?????

depends what division you're in... most don't work 95 hour weeks.

also as previously pointed out, you're unlikely to be on 40k in your 3rd year.

... nor would a builder ever be likely to be earning a 200% of salary bonus + commission on top, even if their firm had made 84% profit increases in Q3...

Enough.

Are you seriously thinking you won't do IB because of the 3rd year salary...?

Not worth wondering about for a while yet. 5 years is a long time in the view of the markets.

Just think about what the markets were doing 5 years ago!
