Capital Markets and Investment Banking
Process
           Investment bankers serve a vital
role in the financial world. From
helping private companies raise money by selling equity to assisting already publically-owned firms to issue additional stock,
syndicates of investment bankers are often formed to serve as underwriters for
issuance of securities in the primary market.Â
On the other side of the equation are
individual and institutional investors who acquire a stake in corporations
through the purchase of securities.Â
These investors purchase securities to add to their portfolio, which
differs according to each investor’s strategy.Â
When constructing a portfolio, numerous factors are considered; to
include asset classes and particular investment instruments.
