Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Man learnt to invest a long time ago, but investment banking has a relatively short history. It wasn’t until the Dutch East India Company, VOC, started issuing bonds and shares of stock to the general public that investment banking saw the light of the day. But since then, the services provided by investment banks has grown exponentially and it is today considered to be one of the most lucrative segments of financial institutions. Investment banking is different from commercial or retail banks in the fact that they do not take deposits. But this is not the only difference, there are other things that make investment banking unlike any other form of banking. There are a number of functions performed by investment banks. Investment bankers in the U.S. must be a licensed broker-dealer and they must follow the rules and regulations laid down by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). Knowing the history of investment banking, the manner in which it has evolved over the period of time and the different services that it offers can help anyone who wants to be an investment banker or who is interested in investment banking.

Download or read book The Accidental Investment Banker written by Jonathan A. Knee and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006-08-15 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jonathan A. Knee had a ringside seat during the go-go, boom-and-bust decade and into the 21st century, at the two most prestigious investment banks on Wall Street--Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. In this candid and irreverent insider's account of an industry in free fall, Knee captures an exhilarating era of fabulous deal-making in a free-wheeling Internet economy--and the catastrophe that followed when the bubble burst. Populated with power players, back stabbers, celebrity bankers, and godzillionaires, here is a vivid account of the dramatic upheaval that took place in investment banking. Indeed, Knee entered an industry that was typified by the motto "first-class business in a first-class way" and saw it transformed in a decade to a free-for-all typified by the acronym IBG, YBG ("I'll be gone, you'll be gone"). Increasingly mercenary bankers signed off on weak deals, knowing they would leave them in the rear-view mirror. Once, investment bankers prospered largely on their success in serving the client, preserving the firm, and protecting the public interest. Now, in the "financial supermarket" era, bankers felt not only that each day might be their last, but that their worth was tied exclusively to how much revenue they generated for the firm on that day--regardless of the source. Today, most young executives feel no loyalty to their firms, and among their clients, Knee finds an unprecedented but understandable level of cynicism and distrust of investment banks. Brimming with insight into what investment bankers actually do, and told with biting humor and unflinching honesty, The Accidental Investment Banker offers a fascinating glimpse behind the scenes of the most powerful companies on Wall Street.

Download or read book Investment Banking written by Michael Herlache and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-01-28 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many investment banking texts out there that claim that financial modeling and valuation is the core work of the investment banker. This is simply not the truth. The core work of the investment banker is origination, mandate/target matching, and deal structuring. It should follow that a text/course on investment banking should be based upon the same. It is the good fortune that the reader has encountered such a book/course. Investment Banking: M&A Origination, Execution, Financial Modeling & Valuation explains origination, mandate/target matching, and deal structuring (i.e. how investment bankers actually make their money). For those new to investment banking you are first going to want to clarify whether you would like to work on the sell side for a few years or pursue a career in investment banking. The skills that you will need to get started in investment banking are different than those that you will need to have a long and successful career in investment banking. The role in investment banking transforms from one that is research, financial modeling & valuation based into one focused on origination and facilitating the M&A process. M&A (Mergers & Acquisitions) is the core product of investment banking, and the other products, advisory & capital-raising, simply support this. We founded Investment Banking University (www.InvestmentBankingU.com) to prepare students for both bulge bracket and middle market investment banking career opportunities. We see a paradigm shift occurring in the field of investment banking. The idea that you need to spend three years of your life as an analyst doing 80] hour workweeks building financial models to become an investment banker is a faulty paradigm. The real value add of an investment banker is not financial modeling & valuation, but rather origination, mandate/target matching, and deal structuring. You don't need Goldman Sachs' permission to be an investment banker just like you don't need McKinsey's permission to be a consultant. Investment banking for private companies in the middle market is a great way to build your initial coverage and career as an investment banker without sacrificing a family life or your health.

Though these products and services are not purchased for immediate consumption, they have the potential to create higher future returns for the investor. There are various types of products and services available in the financial market to benefit from the capital investments. Some of the products and services that can be used as an instrument for getting personal financial returns are: bank products, bonds, stocks, investment funds, annuities, educational investments, insurance, retirement plans, and so on. By adopting a wise investment strategy and by adopting a diversified investment portfolio, the returns can be maximized and the financial goals can be achieved for both long-term and short-term tenure. The short-term financial plan is adopted for short term monetary gains, wherein the returns can be expected within a year that is attributed with low-profit and low-risk factors. Examples of the short-term financial plans include Savings account investments, fixed deposit scheme, money market funds. On the contrary, a long-term financial plan can be adopted for long term monetary gains, wherein the duration of the plan can extend for more than year. Generally, the short-term assets/products are sold in the market after the maturity period, which provides good returns for the investor. However, the long-term assets/products are held in the investor’s possession that can earn returns in the form of dividends, interest as declared in the financial market.
