Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and JP Morgan stand to miss out on a bumper fee pool following the collapse of the proposed $46 billion mega-merger between agriculture groups Monsanto and Syngenta.

If the deal had gone through the three US banks stood to earn a combined fee pool of between $140 million and $150 million, according to data collated by Thompson Reuters and Freeman Consulting for Financial News.
