Quote from Aadel in the UAE, I was excited to begin my career with a company where I could develop while applying what I learned at school. The graduate programme is doing this and more. There is support, opportunities, and most importantly, a culture of fostering talent.

Quote from Angela in Taiwan, The experience I got on my rotations in the frontline, middle office and control function gave me a high-level business perspective that helped me greatly when I took up my first role in the bank.
