Allen Chiu – Credit Suisse

‘During the summer of my senior year (from June to August 2022), I spent 10 weeks with Credit Suisse Group as an investment banking summer analyst, where I kick-started my career in the investment banking field and had a tremendous time with my fellow summer analysts and seniors.
Having to participate on a live US$35m M&A deal for an Indian mechanical component manufacturer throughout the 10 weeks, I worked with my seniors with the transaction all the way from pitching the buy-side investors, to the non-binding initial offer round, and to the investor’s due diligence investigation.
Aside of the project with the M&A team, I also supported other teams such as TMT, Financial Sponsors, Healthcare, and Industrial Renewables, which broaden my scope on different industries and allowed me to gain in-depth knowledge on what deals they are involved on.

I am extremely thankful and grateful for the opportunity to work at Credit Suisse, getting to know my peers and spending time together outside work on intern events such as boat party, hiking, karaoke etc.
