Upskilling Malaysian Finance

The banking world is changing fast, with digital banking reshaping how we work and what skills we need. But are Malaysia’s bankers ready to meet the demands of this new era?

Edward Ling joins us to talk about the skill gaps in Malaysia’s banking sector and what it takes to stay relevant in a digital-first industry. From the challenges financial institutions face to the training programs helping bridge the gap, we’ll explore how the sector can prepare its people for the future.
