Abstract: Abstract Except in those countries where universal banking is practised, the structure and functions of investment banking are usually separate from commercial banking. The term ‘investment banking’ is almost as broad as commercial banking in that it encompasses many specialised functions under one generic umbrella. But regardless of where it is practised, investment banking is nevertheless an activity that is directly related to securities and securities markets.
