Question

Whereas commercial banks take deposits from some customers and make loans to other customers, the principal activities of investment banks are (1) to help firms issue new stock and bonds and (2) to give firms advice with regard to mergers and other financial matters.

This was not true some years ago, when the two types of banks were required by law to be completely independent of one another.
