The eligibility criteria for two new recruitment schemes targeting foreign financial sector professionals have been made public in Macao, according to local media reports.
Applicants should have either a bachelor’s degree (or higher) in their field of expertise as well as at least four years of work experience. Those who have no tertiary qualifications should have at least six years of work experience.
Areas of expertise accepted under the schemes include: finance, economics, accounting, actuarial science, risk management, business analysis, data analysis, business administration, fintech, mathematics, statistics, computer science, engineering, sustainable development, or law.

Applicants will also be assessed based on their age, language proficiency, family background, professional experience, and personal accomplishments. Each person will be scored out of 300.
Macao is looking to recruit people with experience in bond markets, wealth management, sustainable finance, commercial banking, insurance, financial technology, and academic research – among other areas.
A new law in Macao covering talent recruitment came into effect in July this year.
