Investment Banking Analyst - Capital Markets

Cohen & Company Capital Markets ("CCM"), a division of Cohen & Company Securities, LLC was established in 2021 with a firm commitment to providing expertise to clients navigating challenging markets and complex transactions. We have emerged as one of the fastest-growing boutique investment banks on Wall Street. Our team was founded on the belief that traditional bulge-bracket banks and elite boutiques lacked coverage for emerging products and industries.

As we drive this mission forward, our team members will play a crucial role in our continued success.

We advise leading and emerging companies across sectors to address strategic and financial opportunities. We leverage a strong reputation, a broad network and superior execution to serve our clients’ interests first and always.

We are looking for an outstanding capital markets analyst to join our growing team in New York City. Our bankers at all levels must be prepared to lead transactions and drive our continued impressive growth as we disrupt the landscape of investment banking.

Compensation will be commensurate with comparable top elite boutique investment banking franchises. Experienced Associates will be expected to immediately contribute and lead multiple live deals and contribute to our rapid growth and success as we build a top-tier investment banking franchise.

The CCM team benefits from significant transaction experience and domain expertise. The firm has established a track record of executing complex and transformational transactions across Digital Assets, Energy & Energy Transition, Cyber, Technology, and other emerging, high-growth verticals. CCM offers a full suite of services, including strategic advisory, capital markets advisory, SPAC advisory, and merchant banking. CCM has quickly achieved significant success, with over 190 announced and closed transactions since its founding in 2021.
