Evercore ISI Ranked No. 1 on Weighted Basis in 2026 Extel All-America Research Analyst Survey

Evercore ISI ranked No. 1 among all firms on a weighted basis in the analyst rankings of the 2026 Extel (previously Institutional Investor) All-America Research Team survey, marking its fifth consecutive year in the top position. The weighted ranking assigns greater value to higher placements, with first-place rankings contributing more than second- and third-place rankings.

Evercore research analysts were recognized as Top 3 or Runner-Up in 40 categories. The firm earned 13 first-place rankings, the most of any firm, also marking the fifth consecutive year Evercore has led the industry in the number of first-place rankings. The 2026 survey reflects feedback from nearly 4,500 investment professionals at more than 1,600 firms and institutions.

Notable achievements include Krishna Guha earning a No. 1 ranking in Economics for the first time; Gavin Clark-Gartner ranking in the Top 3 for the first time in Biotechnology Small & Midcap; and Julian Emanuel and Adam Frisch earning Runner-Up recognition for the first time at Evercore in Quantitative Research and Payments, Processors & IT Services, respectively.
