As an ITE grad, you have done very well. I recommend you to stick with what you know best, being in your current position.

You have zero chance in competing with the rest by going the econs and finance route.

First, you got to take "O" levels first.

Second, you got to take "A" levels.

Third, you get into SIM UOL in Econs and Finance.

6 to 7 yrs later, assuming you ace all your exams, you will enter the banks in an operations role earning 3k for a start.

If you have stayed in your current role, you will have probably reached 10k per month.

I will suggest you go for a part time IT diploma in NYP, then go for part time computer science degree in NTU.

That will solidify your knowledge in the event that your bank downsize and suddenly decide that you need to be let go.

Are you really willing to spend 6-7 years just to get into banking operations? This is because you have no chance at all getting into mid or front office anyway. Because you will be very old by then. There is just too much risk with very little benefits.
