Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Investment banks typically engage in mergers and acquisitions, as they provide advisory services to clients during the buying, selling, or merging of companies. They may also assist in initial public offerings (IPOs) and other securities issuances, but do not typically set SEC fees or sell insurance. While some investment banks may trade securities, this is typically done for the bank's own account rather than for investors in the secondary market.
