Remember that golden boy with a monthly salary of 80 thousand+dazzled by his little wife? He seems to have been fired by CICC recently and is looking for a new job. Anyway, the job is gone, and I don't know if the love between two people is still there.

Judging from the job hunting intention of China Golden Boy, his expected salary is between 30,000 and 40,000, but 24 salary! This means that the annual salary is between 720,000 and 960,000, which is basically the same as his annual salary when he "resigned" at CICC.

You know, this CICC trader only passed CFA Level 2! I majored in actuarial science and minored in risk management, and my postgraduate was statistics of Columbia University. Have a relatively systematic financial professional knowledge system, including: financial mathematics, programming modeling, macro and micro economics, statistics, python programming, etc.

Working for three years, the annual salary is nearly one million, including the consideration of academic qualifications, and of course the consideration of certificates.

1. Does the salary limit order affect us?

CICC trader's little wife changed the salary structure of an industry on her own. Shortly after the incident, the Ministry of Finance issued the Notice on Further Strengthening the Financial Management of State-owned Financial Enterprises.

The salary limit order is threatening, is it that financial migrant workers are not fragrant?

Read the notice carefully. In fact, the state intends to actively optimize the internal income distribution structure, scientifically design the salary system, and reasonably control the difference in post distribution level. The notice requires that "financial enterprises should reasonably control the post distribution grade difference, fully mobilize the enthusiasm of front-line employees and grassroots employees, and effectively balance the income distribution relationship among leading bodies, middle-level cadres and grassroots employees. If the average salary of headquarters employees is significantly higher than the average salary of employees in this enterprise, the total annual salary should be further increased to front-line employees and grassroots employees. "

Look, the salary limit order is mainly to limit the salary level of senior executives in the financial industry, better protect the salary level of grassroots employees and narrow the gap. Therefore, the salary limit order is good news for the vast majority of financial workers!

Second, the employment prospects of the financial industry

202 1 is the first year of China's 14th Five-Year Plan. As an important blood transfusion channel serving the real economy, the financial industry bears a very important task. The Matthew effect of the whole financial market is becoming more and more obvious, and long-term value investment has become an inevitable trend. At the same time, the pace of innovation in the financial market has obviously accelerated, and enterprises are trying to explore the road of sustainable development to help China's economy take off, from quantitative change to qualitative change.

Looking at the investment field of the secondary market, the equity investment market is relatively hot, the theme fund has been concerned and welcomed by the market recently, and the "fixed income+"products have also been sought after by the market with their good performance. Quantification, derivative investment and investment business can all remain hot. The Head Office continuously optimizes the incentive mechanism to retain star fund managers. Large-scale bank wealth management companies, family offices and other institutions have been established one after another, and trillions of asset management aircraft carriers have set sail one after another, hoping to build their own professional investment and research teams and build their own core competitiveness by attracting specialized talents.

From the perspective of talent demand, the equity market is relatively hot, and businesses such as "fixed income plus", derivatives investment and trading, and fund investment are relatively hot, so the demand for talents such as industry research, stock investment, fixed income investment, and FOF investment is relatively high. Mainly concentrated in Public Offering of Fund, securities companies, wealth management companies, insurance companies, private placements and other institutions.

202 1 is a year of rapid development of domestic securities investment banking business. With the continuous promotion of the registration system and the establishment of the North Stock Exchange, the investment banking business development mode of domestic securities companies tends to be diversified, which provides more development channels and ways for enterprises to go public and finance, and also brings opportunities for the rapid expansion of securities companies and investment banking business teams.

Coupled with China's growing influence in the world, China's financial market is becoming more and more open. This year, many foreign financial institutions have tried to apply for a securities company license in China, and are waiting for the approval of the application for establishment.

From the perspective of talent demand, since the beginning of this year, various brokers have shown a substantial expansion demand for investment banking talents, mainly professional talents and resource-based talents, such as project leaders and contractors. The average salary level of investment banks is also obvious to the whole financial industry. The data of the top ten brokers' annual salary per capita in 202 1 year are as follows:

It is worth noting that this is already the salary level after the salary reduction in the investment banking circle.

Third, how can I earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year?

When it comes to the financial circle, it is not an exaggeration to describe it with talented people. Education and certificates must not be less. Whether it is a brokerage firm, an asset management institution, an insurance company, or a financial supervision and management institution, the requirements for job recruitment clearly indicate the need to "have financial related certificates such as CFA".

It can be called an access card for the financial circle. Having CFA certificate is the dream goal of financial elites, and even People's Daily has repeatedly recommended it! It is worth mentioning that Zhang Lei, founder and CEO of Gaochun Capital, is a CFA holder and a director of Beijing CFA Association.

According to the data released by CFA Institute in official website, as of August 24th, 2022, the number of CFA holders in China was 10852. Accounting for 0.0008% of the national population, the scarce professional ability must match the corresponding high salary!

Moreover, CFA holders have been listed as financial shortage talents in the 13 th Five-Year Plan. In the next 10 year, the financial gap will be huge. Aren't you going to act quickly?
