Let's say for instance each of the banks below had to fight a conventional war with each other (no nuclear weapons or government support). They each have 3 years to prepare (acquire vehicles, weapons, bases, ships, territories, satellites, ICBMs, etc).

JP Morgan is the US Army

PJT - U.S special ops
Raymond James is really getting shafted here. For all we know their FL Offices are currently doubling as an armory for the US military.
Nobody fights the Swiss. They have all these tunnels in the mountains. It’s impossible to take territory in the mountains…see Afghanistan the “graveyard of empires”. That’s Afghanistan. It’s hardly modern. The Swiss have the best scientists and technology in the world. You would have to be completely out of your mind to invade Switzerland. Especially when they are happy to be your friendly neutral banker. So, CS for the win by never being invaded in the first place.
I do think this is the best answer, but only for the next 10yrs or so, then armies will just have mass produced killer drones.
CS aint even the largest investment bank in Switzerland
Is UBS larger?
DB not a BB got the scrappiest and most dead inside analysts so that’s my vote.
DB is the viet cong confirmed
FT partners-most prestigous EB=/=Best army
The Rothschild army would definitely show up in full armor regalia riding horses
Well Rothschild literally means Red Shield in German.
....which refers to a coat of arms, as them being nobility. Not to military prowess.
Only if you take away the H
Bruh get a gf
How old are you?
^ note he (I assume it was a dude) said armies, so GS can’t be the Navy.
Note: I realize this is moronic, but it’s so moronic it’s kinda fun.
Moelis = Marines
Moelis = Signal corps.
Citi would def lose - they would underpay and acquire cheap artillary, drones, and aircraft. And there would be no morale or team culture between soldiers.
Citi = Putin confirmed
as opposed to acquiring expensive drones whose only purpose is to kamikaze into the enemy?
Motherfucker there’s something about you Citi people
Screen name checks out.
Tobin & Co: Anti-War protestors
