Commercial Banking for Interns and Co-ops

Undergraduate, Masters, and MBA co-ops and internships
Fall (September to December), Winter (January to April), Summer (May to August)

Overview

Our Commercial Banking group is a part of Canadian Banking, our largest business line, by revenue. The co-op terms and internships within this area are designed to prepare students for our Commercial Accelerate Program after graduation. This is an exciting group, with many interesting areas to explore, including Distribution, Real Estate, Roynat Capital, Agriculture, Leasing, and Global Risk Management.

During your term, you'll get an early look at the fundamentals of financial analysis and risk assessment, while learning from leaders who manage clients of all sizes. You'll receive training to create proposals that will help your clients meet their financial and business goals. This hands-on experience is an accelerated learning platform that will provide more knowledge and experience in one term than most people receive in four years of post-secondary studies.
