What is investment banking and what do investment bankers do?

As companies grow, they need capital. In many cases, in order to raise capital and for other related advisory services, companies go to investment banks. Investment banks provide a range of services relating to the raising of capital and act as advisors to the worlds corporate leaders

Now, some more detail. An investment bank does not have an inventory of cash deposits to lend as a commercial bank does. In essence, an investment bank acts as an intermediary, and matches sellers of stocks and bonds with buyers of stocks and bonds.

Investment banks primarily provide the following services:

* Financial and strategic planning advice to companies.
* Creating and issuing stock and bond offerings to either private investors or the public typically through an IPO.
* The underwriting (guaranteeing) of such offerings.
* Mergers and Acquisitions advise
* Sales and trading
* Market making
* Research functions
