GBM - Investment Banking Analyst (Financial Institutions Group) - New Grad

Requisition ID: 268680

Join a purpose driven winning team, committed to results, in an inclusive and high-performing culture.

Position: Investment Banking Analyst (Financial Institutions Group)

Location: Toronto, ON

Application Deadline: Wednesday, August 12, at 11:59pm EST

Who we are:

Global Banking & Markets provides a full range of investment banking, credit and risk management products and services relevant to the financing and strategic development needs of our clients. Our products include debt and equity financing, mergers & acquisitions, corporate banking, institutional equity sales, trading and research, fixed income products, derivatives, energy, foreign exchange, and precious metals. We also cross-sell the full range of wholesale products and services offered by the Scotiabank Group.

Analysts in Investment Banking enjoy a stimulating and challenging work environment in which they execute a broad range of transactions. A high degree of responsibility is afforded to those demonstrating initiative and the desire to take on such responsibility.

At the early stages of their career, Analysts focus on client presentations, financial modeling, and research. As the individual’s career progresses, Analysts take on increased responsibilities on live transactions under the guidance of senior group members. Scotiabank brings new Analysts in contact with senior team members and clients at the earliest possible stage, allowing them to gain experience in managing and cultivating relationships.

A significant amount of effort, diligence and initiative is required to properly execute assignments. The complexity of clients’ financial requirements coupled with the intense competitiveness of the investment banking industry necessitates a full commitment to the task at hand. Standards are very high as most work is presented to senior executives at client firms and supervision is provided only to the extent that it is required.

With a limited hierarchy of professionals and a small team approach, Analysts have ample opportunity for career growth and development. On any given project, Analysts will interact with other departments of the firm such as Corporate Banking, Equity Capital Markets, Global Fixed Income and Global Equity Derivatives gaining knowledge and understanding of both investment banking and the capital markets.

New Analysts may participate in the Capital Ideas Program, an intensive training program developed by the Firm. The program is designed to orient participants to our culture, people, products and services and to provide the soft and technical skills, and contacts critical for success. Team projects, individual study and social activities supplement classroom discussions.
