I am very excited to apply to the Sales & Trading summer analyst role at [Bank name] because I am extremely passionate about the financial markets and actively follow the latest trends in the currency markets with profound interest. The rotational aspect of the program is particularly appealing as I am keen to extend my knowledge about the different asset classes especially Foreign Exchange and commodities whilst experience in the Sales and Trading roles will give me great exposure to the markets.

I am currently a penultimate year student, studying [My subject] at [Harvard Business school (I wish :)]. My rigorous academic training at university has provided me with a very strong background in the mathematical techniques required to successfully synthesise and analyse complex financial data.
