    A merchant bank differs from a regular investment bank as it generally deals in thecommercial banking requirements of international finance as well as stock underwriting and

    long-term corporate loans. A merchant bank is known as a wholesale bank and isn't used bythe general public. Most merchant banks deal with large corporations as well as with othermerchant banks, large financial institutions and, sometimes, various governments around theworld. Merchant banks are not like ordinary bank where individuals can open up accounts bymaking deposits.

    Merchant banks have also an advisory team who are comprised of highly skilled andprofessional personnel in Bangladesh. These banks have enriched its professionalism withtheir technical and financial advisory support in day to day operation as well as in forecastingand building future prospects.

    Merchant Bank In Bangladesh :

    At birth, Bangladesh inherited an interest based banking system, which was introduced hereearlier when the country was a part of British Colony. Since its inception Bangladesh saw anew trend in banking both at home and abroad.

    During the seventies, Merchant Development Bank (MDB) and a number of Merchant Banksat national levels were established in the Merchant world. At home, the Merchant groupswere vigorously working for adoption of Islam as the complete code of life. They foundMerchant banking in ready form of immediate introduction. Two professional bodies

    Merchant Economics Research Bureau (IERB) and Bangladesh Merchant BankersAssociation (BIBA) were taking practical steps for imparting training on Merchant Economics

    and banking to a group of bankers and arranging some national and internationalseminars/workshops to mobilize local and foreign people and attract investors to come

    forward to establish Merchant bank in Bangladesh. At present Merchant banks have been

    operating in Bangladesh for about one and half decade alongside with the traditional banks.

    Development Commitment:

    Bangladesh is a growing economy with substantial investment requirements from private andpublic enterprises especially in, but not limited to, the infrastructure, resorts,telecommunication and energy sectors.

    Merchant Banks was established in Dhaka to participate in this development by helping tomobilize capital from domestic as well as international sources. Within a very short span oftime, the banks developed excellent working relationship with most of the financialinstitutions and corporations in Bangladesh.

    Bangladesh is anticipating higher growth through the continuation of reform process,deregulation, privatization and optimum use of internal and external resources. MerchantBanks are at the forefront of providing solutions to some of the continuous fundingrequirements to support this growth.

    How Stock Price is Fixed

    A company's worth - its total value - is itsmarket capitalization,and it is represented by thecompany's stock price. Market cap (as it is commonly referred to) is equal to the stock pricemultiplied by the number ofshares outstanding.

    For example, a stock with a $5 stock price and 10 million shares outstanding/trading is worth $50million ($5 x 10 million). If we take this one step further, we can see that a company that has a $10stock price and one million shares outstanding (market cap = $10 million) is worth less than acompany with a $5 stock price and 10 million shares outstanding (market cap = $50 million). Thus,the stock price is a relative and proportional value of a company's worth and only representspercentage changes in market cap at any given point in time. Any percentage changes in a stockprice will result in an equal percentage change in a company's value. This is the reason why investors

    are so concerned with stock prices and any changes that may occur since a $0.10 drop in a $5 stockcan result in a $100,000 loss for shareholders with one million shares.

    The next logical question is: Who sets stock prices and how are they calculated? In simple terms, thestock price of a company is calculated when a company goes public, an event called an initial publicoffering.

    This is when a company will pay an investment bank a lot of money to use very complex formulasand valuation techniques to derive a company's value by determining how many shares will beoffered to the public and at what price.

    For example, a company whose value is estimated at $100 million may want to issue 10 millionshares at $10 per share or they may want to issue 20 million at $5 a share.

    Analysis & Findings from the Prospectus of Aamra Technologies Limited

    The prospectus is a legal declaration and must meet transparency standards, most companies includecertain facts and statements to ensure investors aren't misled in any way. For better understandings,we have quoted some line from the prospectus of Aamra Technologies Limited and interpreted thecurrent situations what we have learnt.

    The Prospectus Says:"Information contained in this prospectus relative to markets for thecompany's products and trends in net sales,gross margin and anticipated expense levels, aswell as other statements including words such as "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "estimate,""expect" and "intend" and other similar expressions, constituteforward-looking statements ...actual results of operations may differ materially from those contained in the forward-lookingstatements.:

    From here we find that, Every forward-looking figure in the prospectus is only aprojection. Therefore, there is no guarantee the company will meet all or even any of itstargets for sales and profits.

    The Prospectus Says:"...risks for the company include, but are not limited to, anevolvingand unpredictable business model and the management of growth .... There can be noassurance that the company will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do

    so could have a material adverse effect on the company's business, prospects, financialcondition and results of operations."

    From here we find that,This company faces substantial risks. If it fails to address thesepotential pitfalls - and this is very possible - there's a good chance that the company will gobroke.

    The Prospectus Says:"The company believes that it will incur substantial operating lossesfor the foreseeable future, and that the rate at which such losses will be incurred will increasesignificantly from current levels. Although the company has experienced significant revenuegrowth in recent periods, such growth rates are not sustainable and will decrease in thefuture."

    From here we find that,According to the prospectus, this company is losing money and willcontinue to lose money in the foreseeable future. Company growth rates will slow.

    The Prospectus Says:"This market is new, rapidly evolving and intensely competitive,which competition the company expects to intensify in the future.Barriers to entryareminimal, and current and new competitors can launch new sites at a relatively low cost."

    From here we find that,The prospectus is telling us that this company operates in a highlycompetitive industry, and one that is cheap and relatively easy for new players to enter.

    After studying, analyzing the prospectus of Aamra Technologies Limited, we can conclude there arenumber of steps which are needed to be followed in the IPO process. Also, there are number ofStatements which the investors must need to know that that investing company will be profitable ornot.
