Vault's ranking reflects BGL's dedication to providing a robust and structured investment banking internship program for rising college seniors
Brown Gibbons Lang & Company (BGL), a leading independent investment bank and financial advisory firm, is pleased to announce that Vault has ranked BGL's Investment Banking Summer Analyst Program #2 on its 2027 Top 10 Investment Banking Internships list.

BGL earned additional recognition in the following categories:
- Ranked #2 for Finance Internships
- Ranked #13 for Best Internships (across all industries and categories, nationwide)
- Received recognition across seven quality-of-life categories:
- Compensation
- Quality of assignments;
- Real-life experience;
- Employment prospects;
- Overall career development;
- Training & mentoring; and
- Culture of acceptance
Effram E. Kaplan and Andrew K. Petryk, Co-Chief Executive Officers for BGL, stated, "Earning recognition from Vault for a second consecutive year—and rising to #2 from #9—reflects the strength of BGL's culture and the long-term perspective and collaborative approach that guide our firm. We believe strongly in investing in people, giving interns and junior professionals meaningful experiences, hands-on learning, and opportunities to grow. This recognition is particularly meaningful because it is based on feedback from the interns who experienced the program firsthand."
Over the course of nine weeks, BGL's Summer Analyst Program provides interns with experience and knowledge through technical training, mentorship, a case competition, and access to live deal work across all of the industries BGL serves. That industry vertical coverage spans Consumer, Healthcare & Life Sciences, Industrials, Infrastructure, Services, Technology, and Real Estate.
As the firm continues to increase its sector coverage, the Summer Analyst Program supports BGL's long-term talent pipeline. Over the past three years, BGL has achieved an average offer acceptance rate of 94%, and many interns return as full-time analysts, helping the firm develop the next generation of talent to support its continued growth.
As the recruiting season approaches, BGL's Campus Recruiting team is about to kick off their Emerging Leaders Webinar Series, a series designed to provide college sophomores with foundational knowledge, career development insights, and practical tips for interviewing and launching their careers.
