Hello. Why was sign on bonus given? Due to upcoming bonus foregone in ur existing employment?

Default Bad time to move?

Hi guys, could use some advice... I know the industry isn't doing well now, but I have been looking at jumping to another bank. I have 2.5yr exp in FO corp banking at a large non-IB foreign bank.

But I feel underpaid... Currently drawing around 5k and bonus has been terrible (like 1-2 months..) despite good performance! Do you guys think my expectations are too high or is this the industry norm? Will I get more elsewhere?

Hi, I think definitely underpaid. What is your rank now?? Associate?? I have been working for 1.5 years and I'm getting 6k with about 4 months bonus. I'm the equivalent of an associate rank. So one rank above the lowest rank of analyst. Just got promoted beginning of the year.

Yes, I'm an Associate too... Are you also at a foreign non-IB? My gut feeling was that market for this kinda exp should be 6-7k!

Yes I'm also at a large foreign bank. My bak does IB too but I'm in a non-IB function. I expect to be paid 7k next year without any promotion.

For your experience it ought to be ~7.5k with 5+ months bonus.

Not really, corporate banking doesn't pay that well.

And if you aren't in a BB then salaries would be worse.

Default Investment banking landscape in Singapore

Hey guys,

I am studying in the US and I will be joining a bulge bracket bank in New York as an analyst in IBD. Just wanted to get some views on the compensation structure, career progression, deal type in the Singapore/SEA market.

I am offered a base salary of USD 85k with bonus ranging from 40% to 100% which equates to ~SGD 180k before tax assuming 60% bonus. Are the salaries comparable in Singapore?

Hi Mate,

Yes, the remuneration scheme is similar to home but the economy is not that good so don't expect more than 6 months of bonus at this point okay
