Fund raising that's not for charity.Corporate analysis is simply the analysis of companies and then the creating reports of for private or public reading regarding your findings: what are the company's future prospects etc.? Is it worth buying into etc.?

IB is an incredible overused and misused term. Can apply to everything from equity sales to issuing debt. Think of the basic break-down of businesses on either side of the Chinese wall.
