*Deal value for at least one deal is not available. NR = not ranked; NA = not available. In-house advisers and whole bank and thrift deals are included. Terminated deals are excluded. Rankings are recalculated as of Jan. 5, 2011. In the event advisers merge or an adviser is purchased by the parent of another adviser, SNL retroactively adjusts historic rankings to the single, highest-level adviser. If the buyer is already receiving credit for a particular deal, it will not receive additional credit following the merger.
