An Investment Bank is not your typical bank that offers credit cards or bank accounts. An investment bank is a financial institution that helps individuals/corporations in raising capital by underwriting and/or acting as the clients agent in the sale/purchase of securities. An investment bank may also help companies in mergers & acquisitions, help trading in derivatives, fixed income instruments, forex, commodities and equity securities.
