Jones Day bolsters Paris finance team with Gide hires

Comment

I think the thick end of a billion dollars is at least "chunky", if not "massive"... http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/6ed60084-82bd-11e0-b97c-00144feabdc0.html Arbitrations being quite hush-hush, I'm guessing that reported cases represent the minority of any firm's caseload. I don't know anything about finance / M&A in any firm, let alone Gide, but I'm sure their PR guy will be along shortly to share... And I agree that glorified continental is not global. Gide may not be particularly massive in London or the US, but it is big in most of Europe, and has a hefty Chinese presence. All of that taken together may well prove to be more than adequate to make money. Not every firm can (or should) be a super-profitable global behemoth.
