Executive Summary

In 1Q22 Coalition Index Investment Banking revenues were down by (11)% on a YoY basis.

IBD: Significant decline in IBD was mainly driven by ECM and DCM fully offsetting the growth in M&A (driven by completed deals as announced volumes also fell).

Equities: Revenues declined marginally in Equities owing to poor performance in both Cash Equities and Prime Services.

FICC: FICC revenues were flat as improved performance in Macro products (esp. EM Macro) was offset by decline in Spread products (esp. Flow Credit and Securitization)
