Business
We kick off 2020 with a look at the world of financial services – from retail and private banking, to asset and wealth management, fintech and insurance. Specifically, we explore how the talent of tomorrow – the students and post-grads who are figuring out where they want to work – is looking at the financial services sector as an employer. The perception can be that the sector is old-fashioned, bigoted, corrupt and greedy. So why would a young and diverse audience want to work there? Do financial services firms risk being starved of the talent pool that can drive innovation for them in the future?We carried out research across seven countries with over a thousand participants to figure out what financial institutions need to be doing to be top of mind when it comes to recruiting and retaining the young talent that will future-proof their firms moving forward.Mitchell Kirkham-Cooper and Rob Costelloe chat with Siegel+Gale’s Associate Strategist Becki Zeuner and Research Strategist James Moretti.
