About the job

Swedbank's Norwegian branch offers corporate and investment banking services to companies and investors in the Nordic and Baltic region.

All of the above with support from and in close collaboration with your colleagues in the credit and macro research teams, as well as the equity analysts in Kepler Cheuvreux.
