The credit crunch that began in early summer 2007 roiled financial services companies and stock markets globally, and the investment banking advisory business has not escaped the fallout. This ViewPoint looks at the impact of the credit crunch on the sell side's advisory business, suggests some immediate opportunities for investment banks, and outlines the associated technology needs. It also analyzes how traditional investment banking, private equity, and sovereign wealth funds will interact in the coming months.
