12 August 2020, London
Exane BNP Paribas ranked in first place in all headline categories as results of the 2020 All-Europe Research Survey from Institutional Investor (II) announced.

For the first time, every bank was focused on the same survey under a methodology which was primarily based on the previous II approach.
In the main categories, Exane BNP Paribas ranked:
#1 Developed Europe Industry Research (1st weighted by rankings and joint 1st on an unweighted basis)
#1 Developed Europe Research (1st weighted by rankings and joint 1st on an unweighted basis)
#1 Analyst-Based Leader (48 analysts ranked Top3 + RU*)
#1 Specialist Sales (29 positions as Top3 + RU)
#1 Sales Overall
#2 Corporate Access (from investors)
#1 Country Research o.w. #1 for France Overall Country Research
In Industry Research, Exane BNP Paribas ranked in 1st place in 15 of the 30 sectors and in the Top 3 in 24.
Ben Spruntulis, head of cash equities at Exane BNP Paribas commented: “We are delighted that our clients have once again voted Exane BNP Paribas as Europe’s top Equities advisory franchise. With 15 teams ranked #1 in their sector, this underlines the outstanding quality and breadth of our research platform.
