Investment Banking in the UK - Industry Market Research Report

Investment Banking in the UK

The Investment Banking industry provides financial advisory services, including initial public offerings (IPOs), merger and acquisition (M&A) advice and equity and debt security underwriting activity. Competition had been fierce following the financial crisis, with a flood of boutique firms entering the market as bankers look for healthier rewards than those offered by the more regulated larger investment banks. Growing M&A and IPO activity prior to 2022-23 ramped up demand for investment banking services, although this momentum came to a halt in 2022-23 as the effects of economic headwinds began to bite.

Companies in this industry mainly undertake underwriting activities and offer financial advisory services.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
