Across London, senior investment bankers want to make life easier for their analysts.

UBS analysts will spend two-and-a-half years in their job against the traditional three to three-and-a-half-years, giving budding investment bankers a quicker route to higher pay and more “rewarding work,” according to the FT.

Ansarada’s goal is to make M&A easy. Luke Audsley, Tom Jackson, Joel White, Heather Lee and Sharmila Lodh have the following M&A tips for investment banking analysts who use Ansarada virtual data rooms for deals so as to save time and energy.

5 M&A tips for investment banking analysts

1. Help is a phone call away

Investment banking analysts put in brutal hours. If an analyst is stuck while using an Ansarada data room, no matter the time of day, all they have to do is call. A member of Ansarada's Customer Success team will be on the line getting their query resolved. 

2. Make things easy on yourself

Ansarada data rooms have a customer friendly interface that enables them to be used intuitively. The effect is that very, very few people ring in for support. This enables Ansarada to offer a higher level of premium service to anyone seeking help.

3. Give yourself deal access from anywhere

An Ansarada data room can be accessed by mobile, tablet, laptop and desktop computers anywhere, at any time. No plugins are needed.

4. Work smarter, not harder

Ansarada data rooms can give you reports on bidder activity, enabling an accurate view of who is pursuing the deal seriously and who is not.

5. Streamline Q&A

Due diligence Q&A on M&A transactions in an Ansarada data room can be downloaded into a spreadsheet at the push of a button, often eliminating the biggest time wasting activity for M&A investment banking analysts who previously had to collate Q&A manually.
