Investment Banking Exercises and Practical Training Spanning M&A, ECM, and DCM

This program spans M&A, ECM, and DCM, and rigorously trains the thought processes, decision making criteria, and articulation skills demanded on the investment banking floor through exercises built on real deal scenarios.
This is not textbook style explanation or surface level technical prep. Every exercise and every round of feedback is built around one single question: "If you were the lead banker on this deal, how would you make the call?"

What You Will Learn in These Investment Banking Exercises

・A holistic view of investment banking that connects M&A, ECM, and DCM rather than treating them in isolation
・The reasoning behind choosing the optimal valuation methodology for each deal
・Realistic decision making frameworks that account for market conditions, investor psychology, and regulation
・The ability to explain "why this structure" in deal design
・Multidimensional analysis that considers the perspectives of the issuer, acquirer, investor, and regulator
・The logic and vocabulary unique to investment banking that hold up even under deep probing in interviews
