What moves the number

Three things account for most of the spread within the band.

Firm tier

US and international firms pay the most for conflicts experience, reflecting the complexity of cross-border checks and the cost of getting one wrong.

Lateral-hire exposure

Analysts who have run conflicts on partner and team moves, not just new matters, sit higher in the band. Lateral checks are where firms feel the risk most.

The path to manager

Conflicts is one of the clearest analyst-to-manager routes in the function. Analysts who supervise juniors or own escalations move up the band fastest.
