In light of the recent disruptions in the banking sector, what are the tactical shifts that investment bankers are implementing to ensure their clients' portfolios remain secure? I'm interested in learning about the adaptive measures they're taking to weather these challenging economic times.
@tmer831
Ай бұрын
In response to the fluctuations within the banking sector, investment bankers are probably expanding their focus to include a wider range of asset classes and are reevaluating their current approaches to risk management. They might be exploring alternative investments or considering more conservative positions to protect against volatility. Additionally, they could be closely monitoring market trends and regulatory changes to proactively adjust client portfolios, ensuring they can respond swiftly to safeguard investments from the unpredictable nature of the industry's current state.
@AllenNichol
Ай бұрын
Absolutely! i agree, diversifying and reassessing risk is key. Given your knack for seeing opportunities in market fluctuations, this might be a familiar strategy during these times. It's also a good moment to consider the role of dividends in your portfolio and I believe using an investing advisor is a terrific idea as they can provide a steady income stream even when market prices are volatile.

Investment bankers work with something called Mergers and Acquisitions, which is essentially companies buying other companies. Banks earn lucrative fees and interest by providing lending facilities to the M&A. These are very complex transactions involving law firms, banks, proxy firms and advising firms. Hopefully that was somewhat clear!

Back in 2013 an intern looking to place full-time at Bank of America basically died because of exhaustion and not taking care of himself. A friend of mine was ibanking out of college starting at 7 am and getting home at 11 pm. She was absolutely miserable, but held on because of the prospect of promotion and advancement after 2 years. 10/10 would recommend other career paths

@@johnnyt190well basically they don’t invest. They set up the bidding process for a company to be sold at the highest value by connecting multiple interested parties. For cap raises they put multiple banks against each other/investors to give the best terms on a financing (interest rate, covenants, etc) It’s similar to an auction house but for companies. Where after the sale, the investment bank get a % fee, often millions.

@@asoton957 They are not meaningless buzzwords, most people do not have the humility to admit that you simply have not done the research to understand what they mean. It is not so complicated (to understand the function). Imagine you are a private company looking to raise capital to develop a new product or expand into a new market. How should you raise capital? Debt or equity? What kind of debt (mezzanine, senior etc.) and what yield? What is the cost of capital for the firm? How do you price a share offering? Remain private or list publicly? How will share dilution impact current shareholders? Will future cashflows support the cost of financing? How do you market your company to raise capital from investors? How do you access a network of private investors? Is it compliant with laws? The investment bank will answer all of these questions and raise capital for the company for a hefty fee. It’s tough work and it generates a lot of value. There’s more too, when it comes to transaction advisory like mergers and acquisitions (check out Microsoft’s ongoing acquisition attempt of Activision), which you can all find within 20 minutes of research. Within an investment bank, there are also other front office functions like AM, Corporate finance advisory, S&T, PWM, Equity research and more. None of this information is difficult to access. I think the problem is equally that people are too lazy to do this research or simply don’t care enough to do so.
The production value on this just makes it more hilarious 😂
Funny AND Informative. Well done!

4:54 Wow, you got a whole herd of them!
I love these videos. He always comes off as if he wanted to make a indepth documentery on the topic at hand but halfway through got bored and decided to fuck around
I literally have to watch your every video twice, first time for the jokes and second time for the serious bits. Not complaining though. Would definitely watch for the third+ time on any boring day.
So, in simple words, investment bankers help companies get money from people and make sure everyone is happy with the deal.
