LatAm DCM Exit Opps ?
Current S&T Summer Analyst at a BB, but I am not enjoying the group I am in.
I find LatAm DCM is very interesting. However, I wanted to know what sort of exit opps I could expect in a few years, from the following group.
I speak fluent spanish, and I'm interested in applying to the following group for FT next year:
(Job Description)
"The group helps its clients raise debt in the international debt capital markets (DCM) and/or in the international bank market (syndicated loans) providing advisory, structuring and executing bond and syndicated loan issuances, acquisition finance, leverage finance, project finance, and liability management - including corporate and sovereign restructurings - for Latin American sovereign, financial and corporate issuers across a broad range of industries and across the credit rating spectrum from investment grade to high yield.
Throughout the deal origination and execution process, we work closely with a number of internal partners, ranging from specialist product groups in Capital Market Origination (such as Liability Management or Project Finance) as well as partners in Debt Syndicate and Sales & Trading. We are based in New York, although certain colleagues are based out of Mexico, Brazil, and Colombia.
As an Analyst you will be joining the #1 Latin America Debt team on the street and have the opportunity to work on transactions involving both the public and the private sectors, across all industries and exploring the broad palette of debt financing products."
Any insight would be appreciated!

Most people I know in Latam DCM stay for the longterm (Associate and beyond) or go back to one of the countries you mentioned to do something similar. So, if you're interested in the buyside, Latam DCM probably isn't the best way to get there. However, I do know someone that landed a PE in gig Brazil/Mexico/Chile/Colombia right after being a VP in Latam DCM so it's not impossible, just a bit harder. You can always try to latter to Latam M&A within your bank or others, given that this job is most likely at Citi or JPM, it shouldn't be too hard.
However, you might like it and decide to stay there for the long term. Pay is pretty good (slightly below M&A) and hours aren't too bad (usually); speaking from experience. And, IMO, the work is pretty interesting the more you learn about it.
Posting makes it sound like Citi, hours are definitely bad, in line with coverage. There's a few threads on this.
This job sounds like JPM. Citi doesn’t have a big Colombia operation anymore (sold it to Scotia).
Nah its Citi, JPM doesn't have Capital Markets Origination. The "Colombia team" is like 5 people though, so you're not wrong.
Awesome, thanks!
