Pitchbook vs prospectus... where can i find good industry info?

What's the difference between pitch book and offering memos/prospectus in M&A?? I'm a 1st year analyst at this MM M&A firm. I'm having hard time writing company's prospectus, does anyone know where i can find good info on industry analysis on the web? thanks

Are you writing just the industry analysis portion?

Prospectus/"Red Herring", Confidential Information Memorandums, Private Placement Memorandums, Term Sheets etc. are generally drafted by corporate attorney on a deal.

Every industry in the known universe has their own trade publication of sorts. Also, try the obvious suspects such as Thomson Financial, S&P, Morningstar as well as other investment bank equity analyst industry reports.
