Together with your team lead, you plan the rotations to match your skills and interests.

You will learn important methods of risk and price assessment as well as risk management, such as stress tests, scenario analyses, and other data- and method-based evaluation procedures.

You analyze relevant data, assess current developments, and drive the bank’s digitalization forward with your ideas and analyses.

Throughout the entire trainee period, you will be accompanied by a buddy from the junior community to make your start easier. You will also be part of our “Class of 2026” and start together with other trainees.
