  Investment Banker
Personal and strategic skills are vital to investment bankers as well, for they serve as strategists for their clients, helping them develop their financial plans as well as implement them.
Investment bankers spend large amounts of time traveling, to pitch ideas to prospective and current clients or to examine the facilities of companies being purchased by their clients.
Most commonly, investment bankers who leave the profession go on to financial jobs in-house with a client of their former banking firm, as financial officers and analysts.

Contracts with investment bankers describe in detail the fee to be paid if securities are sold, but often do not address valuation or what is being sold and to whom.
The result is that investment bankers are often hired with the expectation by companies that a transaction will have a certain valuation, or certain terms or certain types of investors as discussed with the banker.
Most investment bankers insist on being paid for money received after their services are terminated if it is raised from investors they introduced.

Investors use an investment banker's reputation, as measured by the past performance of the firms it has underwritten, to revise their estimates of issuing-firm value.
Because the investment banker's past performance is evidenced by the performance of the firms whose equity issues the banker has underwritten, investors then use the investment banker's past performance to assess the banker's credibility.
