A Day in the Life of a Corporate Banker at a Large Bank
A typical day for a corporate advisor at a large bank involves a long workday, from 8 AM to 7 or 8 PM, spent gathering information from "newspapers, headlines, information websites, and internal databases," analyzing data, and meeting with corporate clients "about possible advisory or investment." This process also includes collaboration with colleagues and branch offices to ensure comprehensive understanding of client needs.

What does a day in the life of a corporate advisor look like?
You go to the office around 7 to 8 AM and work until 7 to 8 PM. We usually check for business segment news, either in the newspaper or on headline news, or by visiting an information website.
Then, we create a report for possible advisories. We prepare these for our customers. We also check databases from the Inside Automatic Center, banking corporations, or research companies.
We also have study sessions with professionals. We usually have one to three meetings with customer companies. These are typically middle-market companies.
We discuss possible advisories or investments. We also call branch offices to get more specific information about particular companies or segments.
