Investment banking fees are determined by several factors including:
Transaction Size: Larger transactions generally incur higher fees, both in absolute terms and as a percentage of the deal. Complexity: More complex deals require more resources and expertise, leading to higher fees. Market Conditions: The prevailing market conditions can also influence fees. For example, during periods of high market volatility, fees may be higher due to the increased risk and effort involved. Competition: The level of competition among investment banks can also affect the fee structure. In highly competitive markets, fees may be lower.
