Demand reaching almost unprecented levels
The compliance recruitment market rebounded strongly during the first half of 2010. A highly accommodative monetary policy has allowed the financial sector to grow at its fastest pace since 2007. This growth combined with far more aggressive regulatory oversight has produced almost unprecedented demand for compliance specialists. The strength of demand has far exceeded our expectations as little as six months ago.
On current trends the attitude of the regulatory authorities is likely to support the continued generation of vacancies. Redundancies have now returned to pre-crisis levels and salaries are recovering. Candidate shortages are emerging and there is strong competition within the financial sector not only to attract candidates with specialist skills, but to retain them.
We are optimistic that demand will continue in the second half of 2010. However, in spite of the rebound in the recruitment market, the economic environment remains fragile.
