Corporate & Investment Banking

Why are we wasting our Friday evening listening to a ?fat? cat banker?
B’coz we need a job…duh!!! ? Sorry that was too direct, because we want to know about banking and all the myth around it. ? We want to know the different career roles in corporate banking, investment banking, IPO’s, QIP’s, M&A etc…. ? I did my summers in a bank and actually hated it. I hope this guy convinces me out of it. ? There were not enough people to fill the seats. Place Com forced me to attend ?
?

Points to ponder…………
?

More and more these days I find myself pondering how to reconcile my gross habits with my net income ? We didn’t actually overspend our budget. The allocation simply fell short of our expenditure ? If you owe the bank $100, its your problem. If you own them $100Mn, its their problem

Investment Banking Myths
?

Most people think I-Banking is about gambling in a pinstripe suit ? Most people think it’s about MONEY - $$$ ? Most people (MBA types-you and me) think it’s cool to be in Investment Banking

Why Investment Banking Exists?

The primary mission of any corporate management is to Maximize Shareholder value i.e: the common shareholder’s investment. ?Investment Banking? offers an efficient method of helping companies (private and public) to achieve this “primary” objective. yeaahh…right?

?

So what really is I-Banking ?

I-Banking includes providing clients (Corporations, Financial Institutions and Governments), expertise in a wide range of financial disciplines to assist in achieving their most important strategic and financial objectives.
