Six investment banks, including Credit Suisse, Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, and Citigroup, formed the underwriting syndicate for Alibaba’s IPO, selling over $21 billion worth of Alibaba shares to the market. In fact, investment banking has been around for centuries. As early as the early 17th century, the Dutch East India Company raised funds by selling stocks and bonds to the public. In addition to raising funds for companies, investment banks can also help governments raise funds by selling government bonds. For example, in the early days of the United States, the Washington government issued bonds to cover its huge fiscal deficit after the War of Independence. The services provided by investment banks are essential to the development of modern companies and government entities. By providing financial services, investment bankers create value and wealth for themselves. Investment banks offer job opportunities in major financial centers around the world, such as London’s financial district, Manhattan’s Wall Street, and Singapore’s Marina Bay.
