Not necessarily. “High finance” typically refers to the complex financial transactions and strategies used by large financial institutions, such as investment banks and hedge funds, to generate significant profits or manage risks. These transactions and strategies can range from short-term trades to long-term investments, depending on the specific goals of the financial institution.
For example, a hedge fund may engage in high finance by using complex derivatives and other financial instruments to execute short-term trades aimed at generating quick profits. On the other hand, an investment bank may engage in high finance by underwriting long-term debt or equity offerings for large corporations.
So, the time horizon for high finance projects can vary widely depending on the nature of the transaction or strategy involved.
