CFTE and Elevandi published the report with the discussion with leading experts to help governments, organisations and individuals address the current skills gap in finance and build a digital-resilient workforce in the industry.

The acceleration of financial innovations in the past decade has transformed the jobs in industry and the skills and competencies required. A majority of people in finance may find it difficult to understand these changes as the curriculum they followed did not cover this industry knowledge. What they learnt is becoming less and less relevant as Finance is converging into Tech.

This reports explore the new skills in financial services required for professionals, organisations and countries to fuel their growth. This report further addresses this skills gap by shedding light on the ways to build a resilient education system.
