A timely up da te to the global bestselling book on investment banking a nd valuation – this new edition reflects valuable contributions fr om Nasdaq a nd the global law firm Latham &, Watkins LLP plus access to the online valuation models a nd course.

In the constantly evolving wo r ld of finance, a solid technical foundation is an essential tool fo r success. Due to the fast-paced nature of this wo r ld, however, no one was able to take the time to properly codify its lifeblood--namely, valuation a nd dealmaking. Rosenbaum a nd Pearl o r iginally responded to this need in 2009 by writing the first edition of the book that they wish had existed when they were trying to break into Wall Street.

Investment Banking: Valuation, LBOs, M&,A, a nd IPOs, 3rd Edition is a highly accessible a nd autho r itative book written by investment bankers that explains how to perfo r m the valuation wo r k a nd financial analysis at the co r e of Wall Street – comparable companies, precedent transactions, DCF, LBO, M&,A analysis...a nd now IPO analytics a nd valuation. Using a step-by-step, how-to approach fo r each methodology, the autho r s build a chronological knowledge ba se a nd define key terms, financial concepts, a nd processes throughout the book.

The genesis fo r the o r iginal book stemmed fr om the autho r s' personal experiences as students interviewing fo r investment banking positions. As they both independently went through the rigo r ous process, they realized that their classroom experiences were a step removed fr om how valuation a nd financial analysis were perfo r med in real-wo r ld situations. Consequently, they created this book to provide a leg up to those individuals seeking o r beginning careers on Wall Street – fr om students at undergraduate universities a nd graduate schools to ",career changers", looking to break into finance.

Now, over 10 years after the release of the first edition, the book is mo r e relevant a nd topical than ever. It is used in over 200 universities globally a nd has become a go-to resource fo r investment banks, private equity, investment firms, a nd co r po r ations undertaking M&,A transactions, LBOs, IPOs, restructurings, a nd investment decisions. While the fundamentals haven't changed, the environment must adapt to changing market developments a nd conditions. As a result, Rosenbaum a nd Pearl have up da ted their widely adopted book acco r dingly, turning the latest edition of Investment Banking: Valuation, LBOs, M&,A, a nd IPOs into a unique a nd comprehensive training package, which includes:
