We've been described as "thinking differently" and "obsessed with excellence." We need someone who embraces these qualities and shares our passion for them.

  • Believe in corporate social responsibility

Past interns have had the opportunity to:

  • Conduct primary and secondary industry research
  • Help us write short briefs and periodic reports that solve problems
  • Support analytical projects via data analysis
  • Analyze how trends are impacting businesses and the financial services industry

You should also:

  • Be pursuing a degree in any field from a top-tier college or university
  • Have an interest in financial services or research
  • Be detail-oriented and capable of multi-tasking, organizing, and prioritizing
