What’s In a Pitch Book?
If you’ve been reading this site awhile, you’ve seen a number of references to pitch books – whether they’re in day-in-the-life accounts, explanations of what bankers actually do, or even horror stories from other sources.
But there hasn’t been much detail on what goes into pitch books, why you spend so much time on them, where you can get some samples, and how you can learn to make them.
So let’s get started.
What You Do In Equity Capital Markets, Part 2: The Equity Syndicate
We continue our discussion of different groups in investment banking today by learning all about a group you might not have even heard of before: the equity syndicate.
While it’s more niche than some of the others we’ve looked at (M&A, ECM…), that also makes it interesting and worth discussing.
To make things even more fun, the interview you’re about to read was conducted with a reader who works in Asia – so you’ll learn about how it’s different there as well.

That could be a big mistake, as we’ll find out in this wide-ranging interview with a reader who works in investment banking in Riyadh.
We’ll cover why it’s a great place to be right now, how the finance industry there works, how a social scene without models and bottles works, and whether you should head over there.
