| | Underwriter |
 | | An underwriter works closely with the issuing body to determine the offering price of the securities, buys them from the issuer and sells them to investors via the underwriter's distribution network. |
 | | Underwriters generally receive underwriting fees from their issuing clients, but they also usually earn profits when selling the underwritten shares to investors. |
 | | In insurance, underwriter is a company that assumes the cost risk of death, fire, theft, illness, etc., in exchange for payments, called premiums. |
