Placement and duration

The BRM Summer Analyst Program is a 10-week program, beginning with one week of classroom training followed by nine weeks of rotations across the BRM business. Summer Analysts will rotate through our Equity Securities Lending, Fixed Income Repo Trading, Derivatives XVA Trading and Clearing and Collateral Strategy & Optimization (CCSO) areas. The Program features a senior management speaker series, networking events, community service, a performance review and a mentorship program. Summer Analysts receive continued on-the-job training and benefit from working alongside experienced professionals on meaningful projects. In addition to daily responsibilities on the sales and trading desks, Summer Analysts will be assigned a summer-long project, which is presented to management at the end of the summer.

Training program

Summer Analysts begin with a one-day orientation where they are introduced to the Firm's businesses and learn what it is like to be an employee at Morgan Stanley. BRM Summer Analysts then attend Sales and Trading division-specific training, accompanied by an additional BRM-focused training day, teaching them core skills essential for a successful summer. The curriculum includes daily market updates, business-specific overviews and basic product and technical training.
