Dublin, July 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Investment Banking – Global Strategic Business Report” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The global market for Investment Banking was valued at US$79.8 Billion in 2024 and is projected to reach US$92.2 Billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 2.4% from 2024 to 2030. This comprehensive report provides an in-depth analysis of market trends, drivers, and forecasts, helping you make informed business decisions. The report includes the most recent global tariff developments and how they impact the Investment Banking market.
The growth in the investment banking industry is driven by several factors, including strong corporate dealmaking, technological advancements, and the evolving financial needs of businesses and investors. A key driver is the resurgence of M&A activity, fueled by corporate restructuring, industry consolidation, and increased private equity involvement. As companies seek strategic partnerships, market expansion, and operational synergies, investment banks play a pivotal role in structuring, negotiating, and financing these high-value transactions.
The expanding digital economy and fintech sector are also accelerating investment banking growth. The rise of fintech startups and digital-first financial services has created opportunities for investment banks to provide capital-raising advisory, underwriting services, and strategic partnerships to technology-driven firms. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of digital payment solutions, cryptocurrency investments, and decentralized finance (DeFi) is prompting investment banks to explore new financial instruments and investment opportunities.
Another crucial factor is the rising demand for wealth management and capital markets advisory services. With growing global wealth, investment banks are expanding their private banking and asset management divisions to cater to ultra-high-net-worth individuals and institutional investors seeking diversified portfolios and alternative investment strategies. Additionally, the low-interest-rate environment and access to cheap capital in many economies have encouraged debt financing and leveraged buyouts (LBOs), further driving demand for investment banking services.
The integration of AI, big data, and automation in financial analysis and trading is also fueling industry expansion, allowing investment banks to enhance market intelligence, optimize trade execution, and improve regulatory compliance. Lastly, emerging markets and frontier economies present significant growth opportunities, as governments and corporations in developing regions seek access to international capital markets, infrastructure financing, and foreign direct investment (FDI), reinforcing the indispensable role of investment banks in global financial markets.
