Which one of these books would you recommend I read first? I’m fairly new in corporate banking. Just wanted to read to expand knowledge, nothing specific.

I would recommend starting with “The Intelligent Investor” by Benjamin Graham. This classic book provides valuable insights into the world of finance and investing, which are highly relevant to corporate banking. It covers fundamental principles of investing, risk management, and market trends, which are essential for building a strong foundation in finance.
Once you have a good grasp of the basic concepts from “The Intelligent Investor,” you can then move on to “Barbarians at the Gate” by Bryan Burrough and John Helyar. This book offers a detailed account of the leveraged buyout of RJR Nabisco and provides valuable lessons on corporate finance, mergers, and acquisitions. It offers a more in-depth look at high-stakes corporate dealings, which can further enhance your understanding of the industry.
Both books offer unique perspectives and insights that can help you expand your knowledge in corporate banking. Starting with “The Intelligent Investor” will give you a strong foundation in finance, while “Barbarians at the Gate” will provide a more specific focus on corporate finance and deal-making. Enjoy your reading and good luck in your journey to expanding your knowledge in the field!
