Lazards Disappoints

Lazards posted a disappointing set of numbers as a result of the eurozone turmoil and the consequential fall in the number of corporate deals.

The bank recorded a loss of $ 4.79 million for the quarter compared to a profit of $ 99 million for last year.

Advisory revenues fell 26 per cent to $ 260 million with asset management revenues falling by 20 per cent to $ 260 million.

It was interesting to note that Lazards maintained compensation levels as it seeks to retain staff.
