2027 Corporate Client Coverage Summer Internship

Summary of Responsibilities

The Corporate Client Coverage Summer Analyst will join BBVA’s Corporate & Investment Banking division as a member of the Corporate Client Coverage team. The internship is designed to provide high-performing students with hands-on exposure to corporate banking, client coverage, financial analysis and transaction execution within a global financial institution.

Summer Analysts will work alongside Junior Bankers (Analysts and Associates) and Senior Bankers (Vice Presidents, Executive Directors and Managing Directors) across different clients, industries and assignments, gaining exposure to the full range of activities performed by a Global Banker. The program is designed to provide broad-based experience across the five industries covered by the Corporate Client Coverage team: Energy, Consumer, TMT, Industrials, and Infrastructure & Construction.

Summer Analysts will support client and industry analysis, preparation of client materials, financial and credit analysis, transaction-related workstreams and internal processes, while interacting with Product, Risk and other teams across BBVA’s international network.

The internship is intended for students entering their final year of undergraduate studies. High-performing Summer Analysts may be considered for a full-time Analyst position following graduation.

Level of Complexity and Development

● The Summer Analyst role is designed as an intensive learning experience combining technical development, exposure to client coverage and participation in real assignments.

● Summer Analysts are not expected to arrive with the knowledge of a full-time Analyst. However, they are expected to demonstrate strong analytical ability, intellectual curiosity, attention to detail and the capacity to learn quickly.

● As the internship progresses, Summer Analysts will be expected to take increasing ownership of assigned tasks, anticipate next steps and contribute more independently to team deliverables.

● The internship provides exposure across industries and assignments with the objective of developing broad and transferable banking skills rather than early sector specialization.

Scope of Duties

Summer Analysts will operate as part of the Corporate Client Coverage pool and will have the opportunity to work with different Junior and Senior Bankers throughout the internship.

The pool structure is designed to provide broad exposure across Energy, Consumer, TMT, Industrials, and Infrastructure & Construction and to allow interns to experience different clients, types of assignments and working styles.

Summer Analysts are expected to approach all assignments with the same level of commitment and professionalism, whether supporting day-to-day client coverage, financial and credit analysis, a live transaction, an internal process or a one-off pitch.

The objective of the internship is to build a strong foundation across the technical, analytical and professional capabilities required of a Global Banker.
