You think MAS is stupid then you better exit Singapore financial sector because your bank might find this place so stupid to business with stupid rules and stupid returns to fill that it fires you and close down in SG. If that did not happen and everything seeems fine, is because your CEO in HQ decided that it is better deal to hire compliance and spend the resources to deal with MAS.
As a Singaporean, do you think MAS can offer to hire stupid and incompetent officers? This is the central bank that dictates the value of SGD, the regulator that make sure the banks and market do not got rogue and tmr your bank account do not simply become zero, it is also the agengy giving many grants funded by taxes behind the scenes to persuade the CEOs of high paying foreign banks, family offices and fund managers to please keep the jobs here and hire locals.
If MAS can be made up of incompetent people, then great because SGporeans can save some tax monies . |
You have to be kidding. The interview process at
MAS is the same as that of other businesses. What gives you the impression that they can only recognize individuals of the highest caliber? The fact is that although having a great educational background is beneficial, they occasionally wind up hiring subpar employees. The private sector will terminate these employees, but in the
MAS, they are not allowed to be fired and their task is transferred to other employees since the manager does not want his own KpIs to be compromised by underperforming employees.
