About the Book

"Somewhere between Michael Lewis' Liar's Poker and Kevin Roose's Young Money sits Bill Keenan's gripping Discussion Materials. An investment banking tragicomedy. I couldn't put it down even though nearly every page triggered my Wall Street PTSD." - Bill Cohan, bestselling author of House of Cards

From "the now-former investment banking associate at Deutsche Bank who authored perhaps the most bracingly honest and no-f***s-given farewell email in the history of the form." --Dealbreaker (https: //dealbreaker.com/2018/02/investment-banking-associate-leaving-deutsche-bank-writes-master-class-email-on-how-to-leave-deutsche-bank)

A newly-minted MBA recounts his first years as a Wall Street investment banker--unredacted.

"Why aren't you using LTM EBITDA for credit metrics?" asked the managing director who sat across from me, his widow's peak clearly visible as he inspected the sheet in front of him. His spacious office looked out onto New York Harbor.

"Bust," said the vice president, who was a slightly younger, douchier version of Widow's Peak. He slashed his red ballpoint pen across the sheet and flipped to the next page.

"Walk me through the debt paydown and your interest rate assumptions," continued the VP.

"Pretty dovish view. Maybe the Fed knows what they're doing after all," said Widow's Peak. He shot a glance at the VP. They shared a chuckle--at what, I couldn't tell you.

This question about interest rates I knew: Dovish, I thought. Doves fly south for the winter, so dovish is downwards...low interest rates--

"We're running short on time," said Widow's Peak. He flipped to the cover page of my presentation. "One final point--all pitch decks should have the same title."

"Since this presentation was geared towards an LBO analysis I was thinking--"

"No thinking. All decks--same title--Discussion Materials."

Noted.

Discussion Materials gives the reader an honest look at Wall Street from someone in the trenches. After graduating from Columbia Business School, Bill Keenan joined Deutsche Bank's investment banking division as an associate where despotic superiors (and the blinking red light of his BlackBerry) instilled low-level terror on an hourly basis. You'll join him in his cubicle on the 44th floor of 60 Wall Street as he scrambles to ensure floating bar charts are the correct shade of orange and all numbers are left-aligned, but whatever you do, don't ask him what any of it means. Leaning heavily on his fellow junior bankers and the countless outsourcing resources the bank employs, he slowly develops proficiency at the job, eventually gaining traction and respect, one deal at a time, over a two-year span, ultimately cementing his legacy in the group by attaining the unattainable--placing a dinner order on Seamless one Sunday night at work from Hwa Yuan Szechuan amounting to $25.00 (tax and tip included), the bank's maximum allowance for meals--the perfect order.
About the Author: Bill Keenan played hockey at Harvard University from 2005 to 2008 and professionally in Europe from 2009 to 2012. After completing his MBA at Columbia Business School, he worked for two years in Deutsche Bank's investment banking division. He currently serves as COO of Graydon Carter's Air Mail.
