English term

Global League Table for Financial Advisors

English Bus/Financial Finance (general)
Ever heard of it? I had 0 google results searching for the phrase as a whole!

I actually need to translate it into arabic, but I can't even find a website. I don't wish to translate it on my own to turn out that they already had an official translated name in Arabic. And my context doesn;t even refer to that GLOBAL league's location.

Context:

XXXBank has been awarded with 6 impressive
Global rankings in the Global League Table for Financial Advisors.


Thanks in advance :)

Thomson Financial League Tables

"Global League Table" may refer to the widely known league tables of Thomson Financial.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomson_Financial_League_Tables
Thomson Financial's standard league tables are rankings of Investment Banks in terms of the dollar volume of deals they work on. ...

League tables themselves are there:

You have to know the main business of your client (the bank) as there tables in five categories:
_Debt & Equity
_Mergers & Acquisitions
_Syndicated Loans
_Project Finance
_Municipals.

If these Thomson tables are what the text refers to, then I dont think there is an Arabic standard translation yet.

One more thing: financial advisory is a service of investment bank.

One ref:
http://www.boogar.com/resources/financialservices/investment...
Chartwell Capital has also provided its clients with a wide range of INVESTMENT BANKING services and The American Banker, Bank Director Magazine and SNL M&A DataSource have all ranked Chartwell Capital among the nation's top FINANCIAL ADVISORS.

Caps'd by me.

global league table (AND) for financial advisors

You seem to be right. There appear to be many kinds of "league tables" put out by banks and so forth, so there's no call for capital letters, as if this were a one-and-only such table.

Try breaking it down into a Global League Table, whose sponsor must be identifed in your text (whose table is it -- does it belong to or is it maintained by Bank XXX?) -- and add the financial advisors as a separate phrase.

Global XXX 's league table for financial advisors

I don't think an official "global league table for financial advisors" exists.
I did a bit of googling and it seems possible that "global" comes from the name of the body making the award, see below, Global Securities, and then Global Finance Magazine.

Hope this helps
