About CIBC Capital Markets

The Canadian Bank of Commerce was founded by William McMaster in 1867, while The Imperial Bank of Canada was founded in 1875. Both banks saw their own individual success after various acquisitions and expansions, and in 1961, the two banks merged to become the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce—which became widely known as CIBC. The company became the first bank in Canada to launch a mobile banking app in 2010. Today, its U.S. headquarters is located in Chicago.

CIBC offers an array of financial products and services, including personal banking, commercial banking, business banking, and wealth management. CIBC offers many meaningful career paths in areas such as accounting, capital markets, community banking, credit risk management, finance, HR, IT, marketing, project management, wealth management, and more. For students, CIBC offers excellent commercial banking, corporate, capital markets, and private wealth internship programs.

Committed to CSR initiatives, CIBC launched its own Carbon Management Program, which helps it to more easily identify and mitigate its environmental impact. The main components of the program are to manage carbon emissions from the company’s operations, identify and evaluate opportunities in emerging carbon markets, and develop tools to assess climate-related impact. CIBC has set a goal to invest $150 billion in environmental and sustainable finance by 2027.
