Hong Kong has a lot of talent and facilities that will help it become a world leader in the fintech business. These were the sentiments of top business executives during the Global Financial Leaders' Investment Summit, which was hosted in Hong Kong last November, with other leaders also mentioning the city's high-quality talent, which is not found elsewhere. As a result, Hong Kong has been more active and aggressive in competing for financial businesses and talent in order to replenish the migration of high-quality personnel lost during the epidemic.Attracting financial sector talent development hk is a significant goal outlined by Chief Executive John Lee in his inaugural 2022 Policy Address to boost Hong Kong's competitiveness as an international financial center. The new policy approach has been widely embraced in Hong Kong across several industries, with the goal of capitalizing on any new possibilities resulting from the epidemic in the digital banking age powered by financial technology (fintech).The current Hong Kong Institute of Bankers (HKIB) Talent Development Survey 2022, which strives to assess the newest trends in talent development and the most pressing professional training needs in the banking sector, reveals a high local demand for professional training in fintech.Our poll, which questioned over 900 practitioners over eight weeks beginning in mid-May 2022, indicated that 92% of respondents feel their banks have made progress in their digital transformation over the previous year, with 36% believing this development has been considerable. However, most people believe that the most difficult problem for local practitioners experiencing digital transformation is a lack of technological ability. The most in-demand technology and data talent is 'artificial intelligence and big data,' while more senior managers feel regulatory technology (Regtech), which is used by almost one-third of respondents, is valuable in the fintech training program.To meet such demands, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) and the Hong Kong Industrial Bank (HKIB) created the Enhanced Competency Framework - Fintech (ECF - Fintech), one of the fintech professional credentials recognized by the Qualifications Framework. Banks that sponsor successful ECF-Fintech certification holders can apply for a training subsidy under the Pilot Scheme for Fintech Practitioner Training Subsidies.The 'Certified Banker' program has been rebuilt into a well-recognized professional certificate and structured training course, addressing potential skills gaps that have arisen as a result of corporate innovation and transformation.Another poll performed by The University of Hong Kong, Cyberport, and the Hong Kong Productivity Council indicated that around 57% of Hong Kong enterprises are actively seeking fintech expertise. Despite market need, the disparity in compensation expectations was discovered to be the primary cause of the fintech talent shortage.As we can see in the market today, new job profiles and essential abilities in the future generation of banking are constantly evolving. To thrive, banks should prioritize talent development across the front, middle, and back offices, commit to human resource investment, and embrace technology to help people upskill and reskill.
