What is an investment banking expert witness?

An investment bank is most often associated with corporate finance, though there are overlapping traits with commercial banking. Investment banks provide advisory services and securities underwriting, and commercial banks manage deposit accounts. The main activities at an investment bank encompass raising capital, sales and trading, research, and asset management.

Representative litigation matters that call for an expert in investment banking involve issues pertaining to:
- fiduciary duty,
- hedge fund,
- capital markets,
- shareholder disputes,
- mutual funds, and
- Initial Public Offerings (IPO).
What litigation support work might a investment banking expert witness be expected to perform?
Litigation support by an investment banking expert could represent either the plaintiff or defendant, and work could include an expert report, fairness opinions, and/or expert testimony in the courtroom. In addition, clients may seek an investment banker or financial advisor for pre-litigation consulting services.
