investment banks

Whether you are an investment banker working with the hottest new tech start up to take it public, working in private equity and 'exiting' an investment, OR you're considering a role in a startup with the goal of one day hitting it big, you must understand the critical function of IPOs in the lifecycle of a company.  

In today's episode we use two companies that exemplify the classic 'sponsor backed IPO;, Birkenstock, and a more 'techy' IPO, Instacart, to answer the questions:

- HOW and WHY would a company go public?
- What is the role of an investment banker in the process?
- What are the fees?
- What is the difference between primary vs. secondary shares?
- What is the difference between valuation and pricing?
- What is the purpose of the IPO discount?
- What is a greenshoe and why is it used? 

And much much more!

What is best kept secret for understanding market dynamics and being good in investment banking?  You must understand: WHO are the firm’s clients and WHY they need you?  We arm you with the intel to ace any banking interview — either on the IBD corporate advisory side, or on the Sales, Trading, and Research side of the bank — by explaining a select few clients’ motivating factors.  We talk about hedgers vs. speculators in the markets, and strategic vs. financial buyers in the world of acquisitions.  In this episode, we also explain duration and convexity hedging through the lens of GSEs, bank portfolios, mortgage servicers, pension funds, and insurance companies.  By the end of the hour, you’ll understand giant forces moving global markets in new ways.  Plus, you’ll now be able to tell all your friends that you learned how convexity works by watching Barbie.
