^^^ Would it be worthwhile for him to say he is Excel proficient?
Bad idea unless you're an excel rockstar, and judging by the resume I don't think he is. Analysts are in Excel for many, many hours each day, and they know the program backwards and forwards. By including that on your resume you open yourself to unnecessary scrutiny that could jeopardize your chances of getting hired.
Look at mergersandinquisitions.com for resume tips and templates. IB resumes should be short and concise. Make sure your formatting (spacing between paragraphs, margins, font, etc..) is consistent throughout your resume and cover letter as attention to detail is one of the most important things they look for in analysts.
