Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/27/2021 -- The fear of uncertainty due to the virus outbreak dictated the economic climate in 2020. As we approach the end of January 2021, we can see that businesses are remaining cautiously optimistic, as many remain unsure about the rate of market recovery. Companies in industries that are driven by growth, like banking and financial services are likely to remain robust in Singapore, with some even looking to expand. The growth in these industries is, for the moment, largely driven by the increasing use of digital technology by both businesses and consumers. As organisations continue to strengthen their capabilities to capitalise on the growing digital economy, the talent demand for 2021 should increase. Here are three key highlights to look out for in the 2021 job market; the pandemics impact on Singapore's labour market and businesses. The popularity and competition for financial and banking services careers, and lastly, the anticipated job mobility and candidate expectations across key financial industries.
One of the main areas to focus on is asset management. As more Hong Kong, London, and U.S. hedge funds plan to establish firms and hire staff in Singapore, the opportunities for top fund managers, quant researchers and developers to live and work in Singapore have risen tremendously.
