After working in 3 banks over past 5 years I guarantee you this is not the case. When you are a contractor, nobody really cares which bank you are posted to. A perm staff from DBS can at least develop his career within DBS, a contractor posted to JPM is just deployed there for a specific narrow work and every 6-12 mths need to see if the bank is willing to renew with the contract agency.
