Investment banking

A word from leavinglaw

Investment banking or corporate finance departments broadly provide services and advice to companies who wish to make significant changes to their businesses, such as raising finance, acquiring another company, merging with a company or selling a division or interest in a company, floating on the stock market or taking quoted companies back into the private sector etc. The idea is to increase the value of the company whilst keeping risk to a minimum. This can lead to close links or inclusion of corporate broking in the process.

Commitment and energy are the name of the game, where you are going to find the commercial pressures familiar to city transactional lawyers, with that high-octane, gruelling environment, and accompanying adrenalin buzz.
