Global Markets Summer Internship 2027 (Securitised Products and Private Credit Trading / Structuring) - for 2028 Graduates
No deadline given. It closes when the places fill, which on a sought-after London desk is often weeks after it opens. Apply as if it closes tomorrow.
What this title actually means
"Global Markets" names the division. The posting opens with "Nomura's Global Markets Division" as the unit that handles client transactions for financial institutions, corporates, governments and investment funds around the world. Source
"Securitised Products and Private Credit Trading / Structuring" is the desk. The posting refers to "The Securitised Products & Private Credit (SP&PC) team" within Global Markets, and lists trading and structuring as the two functions carried out on the seat. Source
"Summer Internship 2027" sets the timing: a nine-week placement running in summer 2027 ("a placement for 9 weeks within the SPPC team"). Source
"For 2028 Graduates" means the intake targets students in their penultimate year: the placement sits in summer 2027, ahead of a 2028 graduation.
The team
The SP&PC team operates in "the structured illiquid credit space" and provides "flexible capital solutions" across "infrastructure financing, portfolio financing, private credit, direct lending, and real estate financing." Source
The team "acts as principal and distributes risk on an ad-hoc basis" and is involved across "the origination, screening, diligence, structuring, execution, syndication and monitoring phases of the transaction lifecycle." Source
About 19 people have held London roles at Nomura's Global Markets division between 2018 and 2026.
The firm
Nomura's Global Markets "handles client transactions for financial institutions, corporates, governments and investment funds around the world" and "act[s] as market makers, trading in fixed income and equity securities, including currencies, interest rates and credit in cash, derivatives and structured products." Source
What this posting signals
"Internships are also the perfect preparation for a subsequent full time role. Nomura will extend full time offers to strong performers." Source
The team says it wants to "hire an Analyst / Associate" through a nine-week summer placement, which signals a dual-band target: the desk converts interns into permanent hires, and the starting band on a permanent seat can flex above the standard graduate analyst level.
The required experience list (asset-backed lending, Infrastructure Finance, Project Finance, Real Estate finance, portfolio finance) reads as a senior filter, so the desk screens on prior structured finance work rather than recruiting from a generic first-year pipeline.
Are you eligible?
"This role is open to 2028 Graduates." Source
Required experience includes "Previous work experience in structured finance (e.g. including asset-backed lending, Infrastructure Finance, Project Finance, Real Estate finance, portfolio finance etc.)" plus knowledge of "illiquid credit products" and the ability to "review and analyse financial statements and due diligence reports." Source
"Fluency in English is essential." Source
On right to work: applicants from outside the EEA who require a Tier 2 (General) visa can only be taken on if "there are no other suitable candidates for this vacancy from inside the EEA." Source
Selection runs on a rolling basis: "We recruit on a rolling basis and encourage applicants to apply early." The posting also limits candidates to one application per recruitment year, running Sep 2026 to August 2027, submitted online. Source
