Abstract: Abstract Back in the 1990s, it was not uncommon for research analysts to pitch for the IPO of a business alongside their corporate finance and equity capital markets colleagues. This all came to an abrupt end with the ‘dot com’ crash of the early 2000s, when research analysts such as CIBC Oppenheimer’s (and later Merrill Lynch’s) Henry Blodget, were famously accused of helping to push internet stocks to investors in spite of these companies’ overly optimistic or shaky business plans. These days, research analysts are involved only at a late stage to pre-market, or educate investors about the investment case for IPO issuers, after due diligence has been largely completed and pretty much all of the listing document has been drafted.
