Article Abstract:

The investment banking industry is anticipating a further round of restructuring as the market becomes more competitive and corporate acquisitions and merger activity lessens. Many investment banks have become involved in integrated or semi-integrated strategies led by the general trend for companies to become less beholden to advisers. Intermediaries, including investment banks, are beginning to adapt their strategies to fit different markets in a bid to retain clients and extract as much business as possible, but clients are beginning to seek financing advice from other sources.
