FIG at investment banks:

The 'FIG' at an investment bank usually refers to the financial institutions group - a group of professionals that provides investment banking and merger and acquisition expertise to financial institutions. In order to provide more tailored services, some investment banks further segment their areas of expertise under the financial institutions group into a banking or financial services group, and an insurance group. Some investment banks use these sorts of divisions more as a marketing technique than as a representation of real expertise.
