Investment banks typically use standardised job titles to mark career milestones, starting at analyst and culminating at managing director. "BNP Paribas is communicating corporate titles to employees in the London Branch that reflect their existing roles to standardise terminology across all business lines," a spokesperson told Reuters. A broker at BNP Paribas in London was awarded 2 million pounds ($2.45 million) in January, one of the biggest payouts in a UK equal pay suit. Deploying standardised job titles should make it easier for employees to understand where they rank on the bank's career ladder.
