Investment Banking

Abstract: A 9 page paper examining the investment banking industry - what it does, who is involved and the extent of its reach. The paper discusses the state of investment banking's current activities as well as trends for the future, including the continuance of the trend toward consolidation of the industry. Employment in the industry represents high salaries and bonuses, but also long hours. One author consulted reports that investment banking appears to be about money, but that for some it is less about money and more about "gambling in a pinstripe suit." The outlook appears secure for decades, as baby boomers in their peak earning years and have an eye toward building the greatest wealth possible before and into retirement. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
