Talent shortage in Hong Kong’s financial industry:bank、Insurance and securities practical analysis

Financial card care question

早前个别银行突然裁员曾令市场担心香港financial industry气氛转弱。However,自金融海啸以来不少国家及地区经济出现负增长香港却连续多年录得增幅反映本地金融业仍具备稳步上行的基础

2016January,Financial Services Development Council publishes "Hong Kong Financial Services Industry Human Resources Report",明确提出行业人才短缺问题日益严重,Hong Kong needs to train local graduates and practitioners more systematically,At the same time, recruit more professionals from the mainland or overseas,To support the sustainable development of the financial services industry。

Talent shortage in banking industry:Frontline and management are equally nervous

If you are interested in joining the financial services industry,Banking is often the first choice for most people。The banking industry is an important lifeline of Hong Kong’s economy,其增加价值占本地生产总值(金融服务业)达61%同时也是金融业中聘用人手最多的板块

近年金融业发展持续向好银行高层亦直言“经济好、Unemployment is low,打工仔都不愿意‘跑数追quota’,It is especially difficult to recruit people for frontline departments。”由于前线从业员工作负担较大稳定性相对较低不少员工短则数月、In the long term, it may take more than a year to transfer to another company.,Seek new development opportunities。To meet business expansion needs,Many banks can only continue to hire a large number of employees。

Except for frontline positions,There is also an obvious talent gap at the administrative level。low birth rate、Early retirement and immigration,All result in a decrease in the supply of local talent;at the same time,Many Hong Kong talents are attracted by the mainland market,After going to the Mainland for development, he was unwilling to return because of the numerous local opportunities.。部分雇主在招聘中、When senior management talents,只聚焦“金字塔顶尖的5%”反而容易错失具潜力的候选人

内地专才竞争加剧投行招聘结构正在转变

随着香港金融业与内地市场关系日益紧密业界聘请内地专才的情况愈加普遍《发展香港金融服务业人力资源》显示八成受访者表示过去十年间投资银行聘请内地雇员的增幅超过两成尤其集中于企业财务顾问、sales and trading,以及分析研究等岗位

在分析研究领域许多研究员以普通话为主要工作语言尤其是研究内地市场的分析员对香港从业员而言深入研究内地市场需要投入大量时间而内地专才不仅普通话流利也更熟悉内地文化和客户沟通方式能够更有效服务内地客户

在销售和交易岗位金融产品需要向内地客户推广“同声同气”有助提升沟通效率及客户信任度。also,内地毕业生普遍具备肯吃苦执行力强的特点也使不少雇主在招聘时更倾向吸纳内地人才

保险业前线需求上升销售人才缺口持续扩大

谈到保险业市场通常会首先想到前线销售岗位香港作为全球最开放的保险市场之一目前有接近十万人从事保险行业其中八万多人从事与销售业务相关的工作。However,行业人才短缺及青黄不接的问题已经十分迫切寿险公司的人才流失率亦可能大幅上升

保险业前线人手短缺明显目前约有二万个职位空缺香港每年保险业整体新收保费约三千亿大部分受益于个人保险销售,Includes free travel policy。随着越来越多内地客户来港购买保险更多保险公司加快招聘内地毕业生;at the same time,Many mainland insurance companies have also opened offices in Hong Kong.,进一步推高了熟悉保险产品及监管制度的前台从业员需求

高流失率是保险业人才不足的重要原因部分从业员未能适应前线工作节奏而选择离职但保险前线岗位具有自由灵活的工作模式时间管理能力尤其关键初入行业的人士必须愿意改变主动开放自己并适应新环境才有机会在竞争中突围

证券业务转型沪港通与深港通带动人才要求提升

证券业务正面临行业结构调整证券业对人才的要求越来越高证券经理不但需要按照客户指令买卖证券还要为客户及企业提供投资咨询理财服务等更综合的专业支持

Facing the transformation of securities business,以及金融产品日益多元化从业员和毕业生需要持续进修认识不同类别的财富管理产品并通过专业知识提升自身竞争力

Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect was officially opened to traffic at the end of last year,深港通亦于这月初开通未来市场活跃度预计将进一步提高。on the other hand,深圳前海亦将影响整个香港区域的经济活动为打造另一个中环前海十分欢迎香港公司在当地开业并且发展迅速,Many companies visit every day。虽然前海仍未公布太多具体细节但预计未来将需要大量证券人才

金融从业者发展建议强化专业修养与实习经验

不少毕业生对中台和后勤部门职位的实际情况认识不足导致相关岗位同样出现人手短缺有业内人士指出大学并不是职业训练所主要教授理论知识加上学生平日较常接触零售及企业银行、online banking、asset Management等前台职位因而对其他岗位缺乏全面认识

毕业生选择职位时往往以薪酬为主要考量由于投资银行薪金较高许多毕业生会集中投身相关岗位但投资银行通常更倾向聘请已有专业经验的人士例如曾在四大会计师行工作或从事银行销售工作的人才因此较少优先考虑经验不足的应届毕业生

要真正理解金融业的整体运作在校生应积极参加实习计划通过实际工作认识行业发展,Paving the way for a career in finance after graduation。at the same time,职业视野应放得更远不必排斥保险金融经纪等销售岗位只要持续积累客户经验产品知识及管理能力同样有机会晋升至管理层
