Chapter 4 in IPO Banks, 2014, pp 14-16 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The most practical and efficient way to select lead banks for an IPO is through an RFP process or beauty parade, that is, a formal selection process where candidate banks are assessed on a consistent and similar basis. This usually entails sending the banks one or more detailed questionnaires, which they are requested to answer through a written or oral presentation (or both). This enables the company and its shareholders to create a clear element of competition among the banks that are invited to pitch, and also to more adequately compare the answers provided by potential leads and pass judgement on their respective abilities to conduct the proposed flotation.
