It dominated in the small & mid cap research category as it was the second placed team, up from third in 2018, with:

Anastasia Egazaryan securing the #2 spot

Dmitry Skryabin #4

Maria Lukina #5. 

The highly acknowledged metals & mining team was again among the top four in 2019 with 

Kirill Chuyko in #5 position 

Oleg Petropavlovskiy and Artem Bagdasaryan also among the top 10 sector analysts.

The firm’s equity sales team also made it into the top three houses,

with Penka Shopova ranking as #4 

and Luis Saenz #7, individually. 

The trading & execution arm leapt straight to the #2 place from #6 last year, led by Dmitry Ryzhkov as #3 and Shane Sorg as #4. 

Kirill Chuyko, head of BCS Global Markets Research team, said: “The results show unprecedentedly high recognition of our success across our sectors, functions and teams, despite ongoing challenges posed by the Mifid II regulations and Russian sanctions. It is great to be acknowledged for the industry-leading efforts our research team contributes to clients on an on-going basis.
