Corporations & Institutions Investment Banking Capabilities & Coverage Areas Public Offerings Public Offerings: Equity Capital Markets & Syndicate Building strong ties and strong demand. The Raymond James Public Offerings team coordinates marketing, distribution, pricing and stabilization of the firm’s managed equity offerings. Our marketing objective is to generate strong demand through four broad distribution channels: a retail system of more than 7,100 financial advisors, domestic institutional investors, international institutional investors and a syndicate group of firms. Raymond James financial advisors and domestic and international salespeople target potential shareholders with long-term investment strategies. Our goals in forming a syndicate group are to broaden awareness of the issuing company, target syndicate members with the potential to become additional market makers, work with company management teams to price each offering in the best interest of the issuing company, and to continue the relationship with the issuing company post-offering.
