Now there's news that the bank I'm working in is moving jobs out of Singapore to other cheap destinations. My team (product control/risk) is at risk, already there's news it might become redundant.
I don't want to leave Singapore.
What is the chance I'll lose my job sometime this year?
If I lose my job, what is the chance I'll find another job or I'll be made to leave Singapore?

you qualifications and background makes no sense for an MBA. you would do better with a professional qualification like FRM or CFA.

As I said, I wish to stay on in Singapore only & with a significantly better paying job. I think INSEAD Singapore is the best school for that.

Product control/risk is a costs center and not a revenue generating unit. The hard truth is that generally personnel working in costs center are likely to lose their jobs first. Have you started looking around yet? Are you able to point to something within your seven years of experience which can count?

I have worked in two of the big "four" audit firms prior to this bank but I'm not too keen to go back to audit, besides my contemporaries have moved up, I will have to take up a junior role.
What are my chances of getting into INSEAD? I have done a Masters in Finance & Accounting from Australia. My GMAT score is 680

Please return to your motherland, be thankful of the open door policy in the past, Singapore has treated you well, but you are crying like a baby
Times have changed, Singaporeans will be considered first for jobs paying up to 12k/mth
Your salary is at associate-senior associate level, easily replaceable by cheaper fresh graduates
You should be VP by 30, but you didnt make the mark, so you missed the boat.
