Investment banks provide important services for companies, governments, and other institutions, with the purpose of acting as a mediator between the parties included. Most of the largest investment banks globally, also known as “bulge bracket banks”, are full-service banks, providing a wider range of services to clients in addition to underwriting and advisory services, such as sales and trading, research, and asset management services. The investment bankers are compensated for their services through fees, which can take various forms depending on the agreement, but is usually made up by a cash fee paid when the deal has been completed, a fixed monthly fee, a success fee as a share of the deal value, or a combination of these fee types.

Mergers and acquisitions have become integral to corporate growth, with deal activity consistently showing robust numbers even amidst global economic uncertainty. Companies are increasingly looking beyond organic growth, seeking acquisitions or mergers to gain access to new markets, diversify their portfolios, achieve synergies, or enhance technological capabilities. The value of global M&A deals worldwide amounted to 2.5 trillion U.S. dollars in 2023, with the United States being the most dynamic market and accounting for more than half of the total. China's M&A activity, while tempered by regulatory scrutiny and geopolitical tensions, has grown significantly: Chinese firms have been targeting sectors such as technology and healthcare, both domestically and internationally, to support their economic growth. Emerging markets such as India and Brazil have also become attractive M&A destinations, particularly in sectors like consumer goods, technology, and energy.

An initial public offering, also known as an IPO or a stock market launch, is a pivotal step in the journey of a company. It refers to the debut of a company's stock on a stock exchange and allows external investors to buy shares in the company. Going public can yield high returns for the company itself and its investors, but it can also be a gamble. In fact, the equity returns of IPOs were twice as large as those from NASDAQ investments or even SPAC mergers in 2020, but returns were negative in 2021. Additionally, the share of companies that are profitable post-IPO has fallen in recent years.

IPO activity in the United States has seen dramatic fluctuations in recent years. The peak in 2021 set a record, with approximately 135 billion U.S. dollars raised due to a surge in tech companies and Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs) going public. However, this rapid growth was followed by a stark downturn in 2022 and 2023, which led countries like China and India to emerge as the leading IPO market, despite the U.S. being home to the largest stock exchanges worldwide in terms of market capitalization. The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Nasdaq Stock Market are also the most popular exchanges for international companies, having the highest number of foreign firms listed.
