Applying to an online lateral posting
What is the best way to apply to a lateral posting if you don't know anyone internally who can refer you or forward your resume along? Assuming I have good, relevant experience, should I be reaching out and cold emailing people in the group that I'm applying for?

Definitely contact before applying. Even if you do manage to get an interview, you need someone to pull for you to get the offer.
Well it depends how high of the position and analyst lateral should be fine online
I would reach out and say something along the lines of " I applied to the listing online and Im interested in learning more about the opportunity and the people you work with".. In the two times Ive done that it results in a quick chat with a mid level guy about my background and why im interested.
This is right. Never hurts to reach out. Worst thing that could happen is that you really don't click with someone you talk to beforehand, and in that case, it's not like you would have clicked in an interview anyway.
Assuming you don't have any alumni in the group/bank, is it better to cold email front office people or HR people regarding a post? My thought is if theres no connection front office people might be less receptive (or even ding you) whereas HR people are used to be reached out to. At the same time, I'm sure front office people hold way more sway over the actual decision process.
