Carolyn Neo, Chief Executive Officer, IBF: “IBF is delighted to convene key financial institutions, local Polytechnics and Universities to create multiple pathways for polytechnic talent to access meaningful training opportunities in the financial sector. This partnership is very timely – young talent could gain valuable exposures and develop in-demand skills in the financial sector through internships, traineeships and work-and-study initiatives in a period of heightened uncertainties in the global economy.”
Dean Tong, Head of Group Human Resources, UOB: “UOB has always been a strong believer in building a diverse and future-ready workforce. Through initiatives like our U Unleash Programme launched in 2023, we have consistently championed career and internship opportunities that give students hands-on experiences in the financial sector. This MOU marks another step forward in our commitment to build our own timber – by collaborating with universities to introduce work-and-study programmes, we aim to enable polytechnic graduates to gain work experience with UOB while pursuing their academic education. This not only gives them a valuable head start in their careers but also supports those who aspire to further their studies while staying anchored in the industry. Through efforts like this, we continue to invest in a new generation of financial professionals who are keen to grow with us in banking.”
