Boutique investment bank PJT Partners has increased pay for dealmakers this year even as larger rivals have started to scale back.

The investment bank started by ex-Morgan Stanley investment banker Paul Taubman in 2015 spent $309.8m on compensation during the first half of 2022, an increase of 8% on the same period last year.
