The opportunities that Malta’s financial services industry offers in terms of career paths will be the topic of the second in a series of free interactive webinars organised by FinanceMalta to support the sector in post-COVID-19 recovery.

The one-hour webinar, to be held on July 15 at 11am, aims at addressing one of the main challenges that the industry faces, namely skills shortages. In 2019, there were over 12,000 persons working in the financial services industry, representing around five per cent of the total employed population.
