| | Merchant bank |
 | | Merchant banks appeared in Australia in the 1950s and became an important sector of the capital markets, filling the gap left by trading banks which were conservative by habit and subject to heavy government regulation. | | | Merchant banks also advise on mergers and takeovers; some undertake project financing and investment management, or underwrite short and medium-term corporate debt. | | | Merchant banks originated in the sixteenth century in Europe, when they financed trade. |
