The Role of Investment Bankers In The Mobilization of Corporate Fund In Nigeria Economy.
INTRODUCTION
In every economy of the world, there exist this loophole between the surplus and
deficit sectors of the economy. As such, the need for the financing of investments
project by the deficit sector who may at any particular pointing time wanting to
get across to the surplus sector of the economy who savings needs to be made in
form of investments project. The dichotomy of this difference always create a lag
of communication within the economy between the sector having excess
resources and willing to part away with such savings with the expectation of
certain returns on their saving in relation to the risk engaged in ventures and the
deficit sector who at certain point in time had exposure to investment project
who may bring in high yield on such investment but lacks the fund to finance such
project.
Corporate funds is such economic resources in form of liquid cash converted to a
financial asset used in financing investment project which is the commitment of
funds and other scarce resources into project in anticipation of a certain
economic benefit in the future and given a period of time. Corporate fund
availability is a function of the stage of economic development and the stage of
business cycle in the economic. A developed economy tend to generate more
corporate funds as the standard of living will be high because the income level of
in the economy will be high and such people after consumptions will have excess
cash to save for investment purpose and will be willing to part with such fund
given a favorable level of interest rate in the economy and may rather desire to
hold unto such savings if the interest rate is not favorable. A lower interest rate in
the economy will lead to a lower rate of investments the yield on bond will be

rather low compared and will hold onto their cash for transactionary and
precautionary motive rather than for speculative motives.
As earlier connoted above, there exist a loophole between the deficit and surplus
sector within the economy and thus under indirect finance and with the demerit
of direct financing, there exist a channel for the two sector to meet and thus the
need for an investment banker to mobilize fund within the economy form the
surplus sector of the economy to the deficit surplus for financing of project.
Investment bankers who is part of the bank financial institution which is so
favored by regulation of the economy to receive deposits and also create
monetary assets by transforming the liquid cash of the surplus sector into a
financial asset. Investment bankers which is also a section of the commercial
banks are by virtue regulated by the central monetary system through the Central
Bank and are mandated to hold their funds in a short term low risk investment
which may be in form of government bonds and Treasury bill. They are not
expected to engage their corporate fund in long term investment project so as to
guide against the risk of financial dilemma of profitability as against liquidity.
Investment banker tend to mobilize funds from the surplus sector by offering
them various savings package with a reasonable level of returns as that is the
major rationale for savers to part with their savings rather than using such for
consumption.
Though investment bankers engage in funding of investment activities, but in
most cases, they cover investment with shorter duration and occasionally cover
those investments with longer maturity period. The reason for this action cannot

be over emphasized as this is because of the liability of the bank dictates their
assets.
Investment bankers play a major role in the mobilization of corporate funds in
underdeveloped countries such as Nigeria. As the economy evolves to a gradually
developing economy, the non-monetized sector gradually metamorphosed into a
monetized sector with the rate of monetization of the economy and thus, the
banking habit of the people grows. In such case, the investment banks alone are
not sufficient to mobilize corporate funds and thus the role of non-bank financial
institution comes to play in the mobilization and channeling of corporate funds
into productive projects.
As these institution grows, they tend to mobilize corporate funds from the people
by selling financial assets say in terms of monetarized assets which are close
substitutes to money. So savers buy such securities rather than keeping their cash
in liquid form for consumptions.
Investment bankers mobilizes corporate funds within the economy basically
through the process of financial intermediation and such funds mobilized is given
away in terms of loan and overdraft to deficient sector of the economy. The role
of investment bankers in the mobilization of corporate funds in the economy has
a macro economic effect on the aggregate output of the economy and thus
affection aggregate national income, employment, standards of living of
individuals in the country and the country’s Gross Domestic Product.
The reluctance of the GDP cannot be overemphasized in an economy as it indicate
the market values of all officially recognize output in the economy and such
output are mostly financed by the funds mobilized n=by the investment bankers.

The Role of Investment Bankers In The Mobilization of Corporate Fund In Nigeria Economy.
The hypotheses to be tested in this study are presented in their Null form as:
I. Savings mobilized by investment bankers are not significant considering the
amount of money in circulation;
II. Banks are not extending significant portion of their credit to the private
sector;
III. Investment bankers does not make any significant contribution to
economic growth.
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The study will be of great help in the actualization of the role played by
investment bankers in the mobilization of corporate funds by establishing such
roles as either major or minor as regards to their operation in the economy. It will
also help to determine a better way in which the investment bankers can mobilize
corporate funds and also how to be able to make such funds yield a better returns
for the savers who will be also gingered to be mobilized to save in the future
when their current savings is yielding a good return.
SCOPE, LIMITATION AND DELIMITATION OF THE STUDY
The scope of this research work concentrate on the roles played by investment
bankers in the mobilization of corporate funds in the economy.
Also, there is no reasonable research work that will not be hindered by some
implicit or explicit constraints and as such this research work will not be an
exception to such variable which may limit it.

who may tend to expand the horizon of the work.
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
The empirical studies of investment bankers and the deductions from such
studies had noted that the activities of the investment bankers can affect the GDP
of any economy of the world as they are the yardstick between the participatory
sectors of the economy in terms of demand and supply of money or corporate
funds in the economy.
Investment bankers are financial institution whose major work is raising of capital
for companies, government and other entities. Also is part of a large bank division
that is into the business of raising corporate funds to business entities and
government as well.
Investment bankers also offer such services to their clients as to merger and
acquisition, or give advice on certain financial transaction such as organization
spin-off, reorganization and others corporate engineering services. They operate
in such a way as financial intermediary as they mobilizes fund in forms of deposit
saving and term deposit and thus channel such savings in form of loans, overdraft
and other credit facilities to individual, business entities and governments.
Investment bankers are usually large corporate organizations who are styled to
strategically mobilize funds and channel such funds to viable project with an
expected return on such project. The largest form of investment bankers in the
world are Goldman Sachs (GS), Morgan Stanley (MS), JP Morgan Chase, Bank of
America (BoA) and Deutsche Bank (DB).

The Role of Investment Bankers In The Mobilization of Corporate Fund In Nigeria Economy.
The roles of investment bankers in the economy can be refer to as that of a
bakers of corporate funds and their activities can save an economy. In theory,
investment bankers are expert in the field of financial intermediation whose are
so skilled in the view of current investment climates in the economy and can
tailor their recommendation to the present economic state of the country.
Corporate fund/resources mobilization is the process by which financial resources
are solicited by the program provided by the donors and partners. Its also the
process of extracting surplus illiquid cash in the economy by way of savings and
investment from the savers who hold such for speculative purposes. The major
facilitator of fund mobilization is a favorable interest rate in the economy as this
will encourage the savers to part with their cash to such financial or non-financial
institution that may be providing such programs as the savers are rational and will
want to maximize their return on such savings or rather will prefer to hold such
illiquid cash for transactionary purpose of consumption.
Investment bankers mobilizes savings, facilitate investment and assist to increase
the strength and diversity of developing financial markets in the country they
operates. Investment bankers also facilitate economic growth through fund
mobilization and allocating capital to best investment project and providing
liquidity.
According to World Bank, more than half of the population in developing
countries don’t have a bank account, compared to just 10 percent in rich
countries. Even among those that had such bank account in developing countries,
only 43 percent use their bank account to save.

The Role of Investment Bankers In The Mobilization of Corporate Fund In Nigeria Economy.
In essence, investment bank are the bridge between large enterprises and the
investeors. Their mean roles are to advise business and government on how to
meet their financial challenges and to help them procure financing (which will be
mobilized from the surplus sector), whether it be from stock offering, bond issues
or derivative product.
Role as an Advisor
Upon the decision to raise capital, any company or government organization lean
on an investment banker for guidance. Taking into account the current
investment climate, the bank will suggest the best way to mobilize or raise
corporate funds. This could entails selling of an ownership stake in the company
through stock offering or borrowing from the public through a bond issue. The
investment banker can also help determine how to price these financial
instruments by making use of the most sophisticated financial models.
In the case of a stock issue, its financial analyst will look at a variety of different
factors such as earnings potential and the strength of the management team of
the fund seeking firm to estimate how much a share of the company is worth in
the market. Also, if a client is offering bonds, the bank will look at the prevailing
interest rate in the economy for the rated businesses to figure out how much it
will have to pay in terms of rate of return on funds to compensate borrowers.
Underwriting stock and bonds
When a firm decides to raise funds though an equity or debt offering, an
investment bank will have to underwrite the securities. This mean that the
Oredein Oluwaseun (Bsc. Msc in View)[Document title] | [Document subtitle]

institution buys a certain number of shares or bonds at a predetermined price and
resells them through an exchange.
For instance, Unical Plc want to obtain N10m in an initial public offering. Based on
a variety of factors, including the firm’s expected earnings over the next few
years, Udoka Investment Bank Ltd determine that investors will be willing to pay
N110 each for 100,000 shares of the company’s stock. As the sole underwriter of
the issue, Udoka Ltd buys all the shares at N100 each from Unical Plc. If being able
to sell all the 100,000 share at N110, Udoka Ltd will be raking in for itself a cool
N1m profit (N10 x 100,000 shares).
However, Udoka may be on the hook if the public’s demand for the shares is
lower than expected depending on the arrangement with the issuer. If it has to
lower the price to be able to sell such shares at N90 averagely, it will lose N1m.
therefore, pricing of financial securities can be very risky if not accurately
determined.
The task of underwriting securities in reality often falls on more than one
investment bank. If it’s a larger offering, the managing underwriter will often form
a syndicate of other investment banks that sell a portion of the shares. This way,
the firm can market stocks and bonds to a larger part of the public and then lower
its risk.
Investment bankers perform a less tedious role in stock offering as well. Its their
job role to create the documentation that must go to the Securities and Exchange
Commission before the firm can sell their shares. That is, compilation of financial
statements, information about the firm’s management and current structure and
how the firm intends to utilize the issue proceed.

Research
Larger investment banks have large team that gather information about
companies and offers recommendations on whether to buy or sell their stock.
They may use these reports internally but can also generate income by selling
them to hedge funds and mutual fund managers.
Trading and sales
Most major firms have a trading department that can execute stock and bond
transactions on behalf of their clients. In the past, some banks have also engaged
in proprietary trading where that essentially gamble their own money on
securities, however, a recent regulation known as the Volcker Rule has clamped
down on these activities.
Asset and Wealth Management
Investment bankers also carry out the role of assets management for its clients by
helping the client say individual or corporate firm to manage their assets and
ensure judicious utilization of the proceed from the trading of such asset. Also the
wealth of an entity or individual can be placed under the judicious watch of an
investment bankers who also advise on the best mode of generating further
income on such wealth and thus increasing the value of their client’s wealth and
net worth.
Resource mobilization process begins with the formulation of a resource
mobilization strategy, which may include separate strategies for mobilizing
corporate funds. Financial mobilization strategies includes the following steps;

Solicit for savings or investment
Follow up on the pledges to obtain deposit
Deposit these funds and record the transactions and any restriction on their
use.
These strategies and process of fund mobilization may be constrained by some
factors or established rules and regulations which may regulates the process of
fund mobilization within a given economy.
Research Gap/Contribution to knowledge
In spite of all the numerous empirical studies to determine the role of investment
bankers in the mobilization of corporate fund in the Nigerian economy noted
above, no study had emphasized the extra moral unofficial strategies used by the
investment bankers to mobilize fund from investors, many bankers goes as far a
offering sexual pleasure to investor just for them to deposit their fund with the
investment bank. This could be a first empirical attempt to fill this gap in the
literature in the field of corporate fund mobilization in Nigerian economy.
Moreover, this study will deepen readers understanding of the consequences of
the phenomenon called informality in the Nigerian economy.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
This study aims at testing the relationship between corporate fund mobilized in
terms of savings by investments banks and the economic development of Nigeria
economy. Thus, under financial intermediation in this study, the two sides of

intermediation are considered in terms of deposits and credit. Deposits here
refers current, savings and fixed deposit in investment banks while credit to the
private sector will represent credit. Also, Real Gross Domestic Product (RGDP)
represent the size of the economy.
This study adopt mainly secondary data analysis approach as data is mainly
sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). This study uses both correlation
and regression analysis.
This study suffers from the following limitations;
Exclusion of deposits and credits of others financial institutions;
Exclusion of credit to the government.
Despite these limitations, it is believed that the conclusion of this study should be
reliable. This is simply because banks are the dominating institutions in the
financial system and loans to government are used mainly for recurrent expenses
(and may even be mismanaged) and not capital formation.
A three step approach is adopted in assessing the relationship. The first step tests
the ability of banks to mobilize deposit. The second step examines the portion of
the bank credit that are directed to the private sector. The third step assesses
impact of deposit and credit to private sector on the economy.
(i) Banks’s ability to mobilize funds/deposit
To do this, its assumed that money is either saved or held as cash by individuals.
Therefore, currency outside the bank (COB) is influenced by deposit (DPS).
Deposit is represented as all accounts held by customers (current, savings & fixed)
plus cash held by banks (M2). Thus it is expected that a negative relationship will

exist between deposit in the banks and cash balance outside the banks. The
relationship is denoted thus:
DPSt = f(COBt) ………………………………. (1a)
The functional relationship can then be present below as:
DPSt = ao + a1 COBt + e ……………………(1b)
(ii) Banks and credit to private sector.
To examine the extent of bank credits to the private sector, the relationship
between total bank credit to the system (TBC) and credit to private sectors (CPS)
is considered. The relationship is denoted thus:
TBCt =f(CPSt) …………………………………(2a)
And functionally we state
TBCt = ao + a1 CPSt + e …………………….(2b)
(iii) Bank intermediation and economic growth and development.
Here, GDP is used to represent growth and development in the economy while
banks credit to the private sector (CPS) and deposit in banks (DPS) stand for
financial intermediation by banks. Thus:
GDPt = f(CPS, DPS) ………………………………(3a)
The functional relationship is thus stated:
GDPt = ao + a1DCRt + e ……………(3b)

Since it was assumed that the savings in banks have an inverse relationship with
currency in circulation. From the analysis, a positive correlation therefore exist
between them as was obtained.
This is represented by a positive correlation of 0.98 which indicates that the
variable moves in the same direction positively as against expectation of
negativity. Thus this implies that deposits in bank don’t reduce the level of money
in circulation outside the bank.

The Role of Investment Bankers In The Mobilization of Corporate Fund In Nigeria Economy.
SUMMARY, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This study discovered the following:
(i) That investment bankers mobilize significant part of the currency in
circulation as deposits
(ii) That investment bank lend significant portion of the credit to the private
sector.
(iii) That investment banks contribute greatly the economic growth of the
economy
(iv) Inefficiency in bank deposit mobilization is also reflect in the currency
outside of bank which significantly increase as the bank deposit also
increases. This just tends to explain the concept of financial dualism
nature in the financial system
Discussion of Findings
The study explains that investment banks play an active role in corporate funds
mobilization in the economy which tends to promotes it growth. As shown in the
study, bank are able to mobilize corporate funds significantly in terms of deposits,
reduce currency outside bank and improve economic growth and performance of
the CBN.
In most economy say majorly the market based economy, private sector tends to
be the engine of the economic growth. This explains why the extension of
significant portion of the bank credit to it by banks is viewed in a good light. Such

credits are normally used in capital formation for productive purposes. Even when
used for consumption, they still influence economic growth indirectly.
Bank through their intermediation role are contribution to the economic growth
as the data used in this study of the Nigerian economy attest to this.
Conclusion
This study investigate the roles investment bankers paly in mobilization of
corporate funds which leads to economic growth. Two extreme positions where
observed: studies that accept that banks through intermediation contribute to
economic growth and those that don’t.
The result of the test reveals that banks do play a significant roles in the
mobilization of corporate funds in the economy and also contribute greatly to
economic growth of the country.
Analysis confirmed that banks deposits and credit to private sector has a direct
positive relationship with the country’s economy in terms of its gross domestic
product.
This study therefore concludes that bank contribute 90% to the GDP with its
intermediation roles for corporate funds and play and active roles in the
economic growth in Nigeria.

(i) They should devise a means to mop up the increasing currency outside
bank which may be achieved by micro-financing and getting accross to
the rural sector of the economy and the less educated;
(ii) They shoud be gingered to continue to expand credit to the private
sector. This can be achieved by government guaranteeing credit to the
real sector of the economy.
(iii) Good intermediation should be encouraged by the regulatory
authorities. Say effective regulation of the interest rate which will
encourage individuals to save.
Suggestions for further study
A major area for further study is the factor that influences currency outside the
bank even with all the candid efforts of the bank to mop up the credit and even
making savings easy and convenient for individuals.
