Implication of macroeconomic factors on investment banking are: GDP,
Inflation, national income, unemployment levels. So, if we talk about GDP
which is Gross Domestic Product, it is stated if the GDP of a country is high its
economy is healthy same is the case with the national income, so if the GDP is
high that would mean there is no shortage of liquidity in the market so there
would be a whole lot of investors looking for opportunities to invest which
would help. If GDP and national income is high, the country can do exports and
bring in foreign investors and can have trade agreement with different countries
at a decent exchange rate. Medium and small size enterprises to grow as they
would get financial support that at a low interest rate because there is no
investors shortage, further government will be largely profited as they will get
as many funding as required by investment banking. Overall, everyone will be
profited may it be investment banking, government, investors, borrowers.
Further it will help country to grow economically and in terms of infrastructure
and technology as well, it would further help in renewable energy revolution,
alternative energy projects would get the funding so there would be less
pollution in the country which would further increase the life span of the people
in the country. The implications of inflation on investment banking are as
followed, as price rises, the spending power of the bond owner income reduces.
This also affects their value. So, the investors in the market become very less
due to that investor demand high interest, to make matter worse, higher inflation
is accompanied with higher central bank rates, which leads to increased rates on
issued bonds, so the interest rate for borrowers increases which results in
subprime borrowers failing to pay back loans and thus resulting in bankruptcy,
due to this in very short time span economy also get crushed. Implications of
unemployment rates on investment banking sector, an increase in the
unemployment rates can be translated into an increasing of non-performing
loans and thus lowering bank liquidity. An increase in public deficit will
involve increasing bank loans and thus will decrease liquidity, since the non-
performing loans increase, it hits the economy of the country.
