Corporate Finance (Underwriting)

Corporate Finance groups specialize in underwriting securities for companies looking to go public or raise capital through debt offerings. They generate revenue through underwriting fees, commissions on securities sold, and sometimes by purchasing and reselling these securities at a profit. The success of this group hinges on accurately assessing risks, market conditions, and leveraging our network to ensure the securities we underwrite perform well in the market.

Challenges

Ava, a dedicated mid-level employee in our New York office, faces a significant challenge as the lead deal arranger. She’s tasked with underwriting a large bond issuance for a rapidly growing tech company looking to expand its operations internationally. However, understanding the intricate risks involved, especially in a volatile tech market, and coordinating with the right experts within her global firm to evaluate these risks accurately proves to be complex and overwhelming.
