Ironically you will find that many IBs use "LDN" in various server, application names etc. etc. that operate in or support - you guessed it - London business.

Capital letter for a capital city. The rest of 'em can go hang.

True, but you'll also find: L, LO, LON, LN.

If you are so interested why not drop your rate to get started?

to be honest I've never been particularly fussed about what sector I'm working in, more interested in what I'm doing rather than where. I guess IB rightly or wrongly just put more emphasis on prior business knowledge than technical experience.

One weekend recently I went home thinking I had been under reporting an AUM figure for the last 6 months to the tune of $40 billion, wondering how I was going to explain it I couldn't just slip it in to conversation , thinking my professional indem insurance of a couple of million wouldn't really cover it

So "dozer" is an acronym for...?

I wouldn't worry, obviously it is one of those reports no one looks at. Just put in a fix and shove it in a release.

Just ask the UK government for the $40bn, after all it's for a bank and they just love splashing out cash on banks.
