Why would an investment bank's research analyst be 'brought over the wall' during an IPO?

  1. To verify that the company's GAAP accounting practices are compliant
  2. To help manage the bookbuilding process and set the final investor allocations
  3. To receive non-public information and prepare initiating coverage reports
  4. To help the deal bankers pitch for and ultimately win the IPO underwriting mandate
