A robust and skilled workforce will strengthen Singapore’s ability to serve the growing global sustainable finance market. Singapore’s financial services sector workforce will undergo upskilling within the next three years to seize these opportunities.

Why it Matters

Talent and skills form the foundation of any thriving sector, and as Singapore moves towards a low-carbon economy, the demand for sustainable finance is on the rise. It is crucial to understand the sustainable finance roles and skills required by the Financial Services (FS) sector to prepare its workforce adequately for this transition.
