Bank of America: does its global markets/global banking analyst program and summer analyst internship sponsor a UK visa?
Only in part. Bank of America sponsors its global markets/global banking analyst program and summer analyst internship for some tracks or offices, not all. On the EMEA tab of Bank of America's own campus Application Process page (covering the Apprentice, Spring Insight, Summer Internship, Industrial Placement and Full-time Analyst/Associate programmes, including Global Markets and Global Corporate and Investment Banking), a direct FAQ states the bank welcomes non-EEA applicants but frames employment as conditional on proving no suitable EEA candidate exists for the role. This wording appears to reference the pre-Brexit EEA free-movement framework rather than the current Skilled Worker visa regime, which may mean the page is stale, but it is what Bank of America currently publishes as its policy.

What is covered: EMEA/UK Summer Internship Programme and Full-time Analyst and Associate programmes (Global Markets, Global Corporate and Investment Banking), sponsorship considered only where BofA can show no suitable EEA candidate is available
“Can I apply if I require a visa in order to work in the UK? We welcome applications from all candidates. However, the UK government has taken steps to reduce net migration to the UK by limiting the number of overseas workers from outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) coming to the UK for employment. Please be aware that whilst we are able to consider applications from workers from outside of the EEA, we can only employ individuals where we can provide evidence that there are no other candidates from within the EEA who are suitable for the role.”
