Course content
This course is devoted to the practice of investment banking and corporate valuation. The objective of this course is to introduce students to the world of investment banking, with a particular focus on equity financings, IPOs, mergers & acquisitions, leveraged buyouts, and corporate restructurings. Central to all of these is corporate and business valuation, and as such, the first part of the course will be devoted to covering the valuation methodologies most typically used by investment bankers. The second part of the course will focus on practical aspects and describe the role of investment bankers in major equity-related transactions.
