Introduction
During the past decade, the investment banking industry saw a significant growth in their business as the economy prospered. However, with the Sub-prime Mortgage Crisis combined with the Credit Crunch of 2008, the global equity market plummeted to a decade low. As a result, the $240 billion investment banking industry exploded. With the liquidation of Lehman Brothers and the emergency fire sale of Merrill Lynch, the industry was bailed out by the Congress with a $700 billion bailout act in order to prevent a financial meltdown. This wiki will provide a comprehensive analysis of the situation as well as the current events that are associated with the investment banking industry.
