This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2431 (80% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £50,200, and Bank of America is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
This could also be SOC 2422 (Finance and investment analysts and advisers, Credit risk analyst focus could fit finance analyst group) or SOC 3549 (Business associate professionals not elsewhere classified., Risk officer/support role if more administrative than analytical). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
