Structuring is like making bhel puri. You buy the vegetables, peanuts, chutneys and all other ingredients. You don’t bother into their formulation and all. You just put all of it together in proper proportions so that the customer likes the end result. and get paid for that!
Update: Some responses from my investment banker friends.
The guy from Goldman simply agrees.
The guy from Deutsche says
NO
its fooling the customer and making sure you get sued
The girl from Lehman says

The guy from Lehman is yet to respond.
Update
The guy from Lehman responded. He says
