London Banking Tour 2022-2023

Lbt 2023 v3
About

In September 2023, the promising and exciting world of Investment Banking will become reality for 26 Dutch academics. This year, the FSA will organise the London Banking Tour for the 30th time. During this Tour, you get to see what life is like as an investment banker in London. You will visit banks in London and in the Netherlands. During this week, you will enjoy presentations, solve cases and dine with employees of these prestigious banks. You will stay at a hotel in the center of London.

The city of London is one of the world’s leading international financial centers. Hundreds of financial institutions from all over the world have settled in one square mile. It is an enormous attraction for everyone interested in Banking and Investment Banking in particular.

Working for an Investment Bank is not in any way comparable to any other job. It means total dedication to your job and it absorbs a lot of time and effort. But the advantages are obvious and the honor of working for an investment bank is significant. It is a career choice that will pay off for the rest of your professional life.

We are no longer accepting new applications for the London Banking Tour 2023. The students that are invited for our interview-round will be contacted by phone during Thursday the 8th and Friday the 9th of June.

Who are we looking for

This project is designed for students from all backgrounds in their Bachelor’s or Master’s program. All students with an interest in Investment Banking can apply via our website. Fluency in Dutch is required.

Since we are working with the Benelux teams of the banks, it is a requirement that you can express yourself in the appropriate language. For this reason, we unfortunately have to exclude people who do not meet this requirement.

Should you have any doubts about your ability in Dutch, please apply anyway. The application process includes an interview component where we can determine whether or not it meets the standard.
