Different names for IBD, what to write on the resume

I just saw that Deutsche Bank changed the name for their Investment Banking activities to "Corporate Banking & Securities". Since I have witnessed several changes of names from time to time, I'm wondering what to put on your CV in case you interned or worked (or will intern or work there in the future) at one of the banks that give their IBD and IB acitivites different names.

Do you just write "Analyst, Mergers & Acquisitions" or "Intern, Investment Banking Division", or do you write (in DB's case) "Analyst Corporate Banking & Securities" or "Intern, Global Financial Advisory" (in the case of Rothschild)?

Honestly, this sounds like shit and is kind of misleading imo.

Hmm Corporate Banking & Securities is too broad. Many different people interning at Deutsche Bank AG can write that. It usually looks like this:

Coporate Banking & Securities / Corporate Finance / ____ (For example Country Coverage Advisory etc.. but also can be Corporate Banking or something esle)

For lets say BAML it is:

Corporate & Investment Banking / Global Investment Banking / ____ (Capital Markets for example)

CITI:

Institutional Clients Group / ____ (Investment Banking)

so basically that is how it looks when you are employee, however, i would just make up the most appropriate thing - Summer Analyst | Investment Banking Division or whatever

 
animalz CITI:

Institutional Clients Group / ____ (Investment Banking)

Citi is more like: ICG / CIB / IBD

BAML is Global Banking and Markets --> Global Corporate Banking/Investment Banking --> Global Capital Markets --> Capital Commitments Group --> (DCM, ECM, Lev Fin.)
