Investment Banks

Investment bank, or i-bank, is a financial service institution that functions as an underwriter or agent for public and private corporations to raise funds especially in international market place. Usually, investment banks provide investors financial advisories and assistance in facilitating mergers, acquisitions, corporate restructuring, and other financial transactions. These banks are different from commercial banks. Often, investment banks have several offices located in different countries, particularly in financial districts. Many of these banks originated from and are developed in the UK. Their services include banking transactions for government and private companies, investment managements, and security trading.

The success of investment banks greatly depend on the qualities and skills of employees in managing their clients' needs. To provide high-quality financial services for clients is the top priority of investment banks. Like Deutsche Bank, it provides investment and financial advisory for its clients. Their Corporate and Investment Bank Group Division plays significant role in this particular field of finance. CIB has 2 corporate divisions that handle specific financial concerns of the clients. Corporate Banking and Securities, as well as Global Transaction Banking are the two divisions that deliver products and financial services of CIB.
