The financial industry covers: banking, securities, funds, futures, foreign exchange, and trusts. What we are talking about here are some mainstream and basic sectors, such as financial leasing, and the insurance industry is not within the scope of this discussion for the time being. Starting with banks, the income of employees at the traditional four major banks is on the lower side, compared with foreign banks. Securities and futures are compared together because the business of these two industries mainly depends on the department. The salary of the investment banking department of securities is not the same level as that of the branch sales manager. The income of futures research and trading positions is higher than that of other basic service positions in futures companies based on multiples. Funds are divided into private equity and public equity. Except for the well-known private equity funds, the salary is a little higher than that of public funds, but the gap is not very different. The income from public equity is basically higher than that from private equity. In addition to the sales account department, the average salary and benefits of the trust are also good. Domestic foreign exchange business has not been liberalized, and banks are playing the main role. Employees earn more than normal white-collar workers.

In general, the income of employees in the financial industry is slightly higher than that of other industries, but it depends on the position and professional quality and skills.
