Local talent to the fore
Singaporeans are leveraging on their technical and cultural skills to move into senior positions at leading financial institutions, say this year's IBF Distinguished Fellows.
AS Singapore cements its position as one of Asia's premier finance hubs, more local professionals are climbing the industry's ranks to take on senior positions at leading regional and global financial institutions.
Indeed, Singaporeans snagged the lion's share of the top honours at this year's Institute of Banking and Finance awards - including those who received the "IBF Distinguished Fellow" title, the highest certification mark under the IBF Standards.
The IBF Standards is a development roadmap for financial sector practitioners to attain the necessary training to excel in their respective job roles.
