From January 2014 to April 2014, Anagram Group, a training company headquartered in Singapore, conducted a global survey to gauge the training environment for banks in 2014.

 

About the survey

The survey was conducted by Anagram Group from January to April 2014 through a web-based survey tool.

 

840 senior level banking professionals around the world completed the survey. 

 

Due to the key markets that Anagram operates in, 26% of survey respondents were from Singapore, and 21% were from the UK. The rest of the respondents were from Australia, Shanghai, Hong Kong, India, Dubai and the US.

Summary

 

  • 95% of respondents believe that more training would benefit their career. 50% expect to receive more hours of training this year compared to 2013 whilst a further 30% see no change.
