What exactly do investment banks do to help companies go public?

The investment bank is the underwriter of the listing. Before the company goes public, they provide listing counseling for the shareholders and senior management of the company to be listed. After the counseling and evaluation, they conduct due diligence on the company, make investigation reports and working papers, and then make a recommendation letter and submit it to the CSRC for review. After being approved for listing, they will also follow up and supervise the listed companies. In short, in the listing of enterprises, the role of investment banks is very important, as well as the cooperation of intermediaries such as lawyers and accountants. Only in this way can the listing plan be successfully completed.
