How To Select An Investment Banker


Your basis for selecting the right investment banker should be founded in solid due diligence, to wit:

  • How many transactions essentially similar to your transaction (i.e.: projects in the same industry, size and/or market) has the investment banking firm completed in the last 12 months?  Verify it.

  • How long did it take the investment banking firm to complete these placements?

  • Was the investment banker the lead investment banker or one of the firms that sold a portion of the issue?  You want the lead investment banker when all else fails.

  • Are the fees structured for payment based upon performance?

  • How much money do they really need to offset their expenses?

  • What related investment product types can the firm work with?  (these would include bonus depreciation expense allowance-based preferred equity floats, tax-credit floats and grants)

Compare them all and see what you have.  If you aren't sure then contact Rainmaker Marketing Corporation and speak to one of our capital finance consultants.  Your initial consultation is free and each and every question you have will receive an answer.
