2023 Investment Banking Summer Analyst Program

Nomura Investment Banking is seeking intellectually curious and driven students to join as Summer Analysts. The Summer Analyst Program runs for ten weeks, with a one-week intensive training course, followed by a nine-week placement within a sector coverage or product group. The program offers Summer Analysts an opportunity to work alongside our investment bankers on a variety of live transactions as well as client-facing business development initiatives.

Our program begins in early June and provides Summer Analysts with the same amount of exposure as a first-year Analyst, with hands-on opportunities to participate as full members of the team and extensive contact with Investment Banking professionals at all levels. Throughout the program, Summer Analysts will participate in business-led discussion groups, networking events, and speaker sessions. All Analysts will also be paired with both a junior and senior mentor to provide guidance and support throughout the internship.

This program is an integral component of our full-time recruiting and at the end of the summer we will extend offers to top performers to return after graduation.
