MARKET OVERVIEW FOR 2012 It was a positive start to 2011 as the economy continued to demonstrate an appetite for growth, with organisations investing in people, projects and development. There was significant media attention on bonus payments and reform within the banking sector, but still an air of optimism, which filtered through to hiring plans and growth for most of our clients. However, confidence deteriorated as the year progressed and the issues in Europe magnified, and towards the close of the year there were job losses, hiring freezes and companies scrutinising their budgets for 2012. Overall, 2011 was similar to 2010 in that much of the permanent hiring took place in the first half of the year, when organisations clearly understood the need to attract the right talent. Looking forward to 2012, we foresee a year where retaining this key talent will be a key priority. We anticipate a greater availability of candidates during this year, but when managers are in a position to hire, the pressure to get this right will be significant. While 2012 promises to be tight, there will still be a need for key hires in certain areas (e.g. change, compliance, risk and treasury) a result of the weight of regulatory reform, which will not ease for some years. The reforms will inevitably force companies to become better capitalised. They will also have no choice but to erect risk-mitigating structures to ensure their entire lines of liquidity cannot dry up overnight. One thing is certain: uncertainty. Many people have opinions on how the year will look, but a prevailing view has not emerged. It is expected that the biggest demand in recruitment will be for people who can reduce the uncertainty, and for those who can clearly demonstrate the value of their contribution. However, considering most organisations are carrying out relatively similar work and budgets are guaranteed in some areas, many financial professionals will be happy to stay in their current role unless there are significant incentives to move. As always, running a smooth recruitment process will be a key differentiator in attracting and hiring the right candidates. Although the availability of candidates is likely to rise year on year, there will be common needs across financial services organisations. So to ensure recruitment is successful, organisations will need to understand their teams needs from a competency perspective as well as the technical skills they require. Once these needs are established, measuring and assessing them consistently will be a key factor in making the right hiring choices. LONDON BANKING & FINANCIAL SERVICES HUDSON SALARY GUIDE 2012 3

COMPLIANCE More than three years have passed since the demise of Lehman Brothers and the crisis that engulfed the global financial market. This has resulted in financial and political bodies taking a far stricter view on regulation in the banking and financial services sector. The focus has now changed from a political perspective. The Government needs to be seen to be acting in the best interests of the country, ensuring financial institutions are fully equipped to withstand future financial strain and uncertainty. As the Government and politicians have changed, the major part of this rebuilding has been left to regulators. Governing bodies are insisting on greater capital requirements within the banks; and, while regulators may not fully understand the risks involved, they are able to regulate policies, procedures and daily activities to ensure a more structured and transparent industry. This new focus on regulation and governance has resulted in a greater need for experienced compliance professionals. Recruitment in the compliance industry grew through the early months of 2010 and continued in this vein throughout the year. The demand for experienced and specialist compliance personnel is now exceeding pre-recession levels, which is the result of the revised regulatory overview of the FSA and new and increased UK and EU regulation. There has been a significant increase in the number of specialist compliance staff coming into the market to meet the required resources for regulation and brand new teams are being created across a variety of areas. The increasing demand for specialist skills has had a knock-on effect on salaries. Attracting top talent for key compliance functions now requires remuneration above the typical market rate. In London, the average increase in salary across the compliance industry was at 9 per cent in 2009, 15 per cent in 2010, and 20 to 22 per cent in 2011. As the industry is experiencing a limited pool of specialist candidates, good candidates can expect to receive multiple offers from prospective employers and strong counter offers from existing employers. The increase in bonus guarantees has also risen sharply for senior individuals. 6 BANKING & FINANCIAL SERVICES HUDSON SALARY GUIDE 2012

FINANCE After a steady year of recruitment in 2010, hiring levels in 2011 for the London market were somewhat unpredictable for the finance sector. The first half of the year was reasonably stable. Client activity focused on senior level accountants, but the recruitment of personnel from the newly qualified to 2-3 years post qualified experience (PQE) bracket was significantly lower. The demand for these candidates fell further still as the year progressed. There was increased competition to retain and secure key talent. As a result counteroffers became more common from current employers. In such a competitive marketplace, the businesses that secured the best people were typically those that could be flexible on salaries, and those that sold the benefits of new jobs most effectively. Companies employing multiple interview phases that ran over a long period of time invariably missed out on their first choice candidates, while those that moved quickly did not. Despite the decreased level of recruitment, candidates that moved into a new job expected a minimum 10 per cent pay rise. This reflected increased competition for technical accountants with banking experience, rises in staff turnover, and small opportunities for growth, expansion and investment hiring. There was also a restructuring of compensation packages, which meant less of an emphasis on bonuses and ultimately less of a motivation for employees to make a move to another employer. Culture and work-life balance are now increasingly important factors for candidates considering a move. There was greater demand for financial controllers in 2011 than in previous years and an increased call for management accountants who could drive businesses forward. Also sought after and in short supply were technical accountants with strong International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and International Accounting Standards (IAS) experience, primarily as growing organisations focused on contractors with core technical accounting skills. The employers with competitive and attractive compensation packages were able to secure the best technical professionals. Regulatory reporting experience was also in high demand, corresponding to new FSA and compliance related requirements that led to ledger implementations and alterations to improve the accuracy of reporting. 10 BANKING & FINANCIAL SERVICES HUDSON SALARY GUIDE 2012

In the second half of the year, there was a decline in the recruitment of both newly qualified and senior hires; and an increased pressure on cost led to heavy off-shoring and a waning demand for recruitment altogether. Hiring freezes or pauses were a common response to market uncertainty, cost saving and the Eurozone crisis particularly for investment banks. Banks were still recruiting in some areas, but it was increasingly difficult to find people for senior roles (e.g. managers, directors and vice presidents). These candidates were waiting on bonuses, due at the end of the year, which meant employers were also holding off for 2012, when it was expected that the candidate pool would open up again. During the last months of the year, employers spent the majority of their recruitment budgets on hires that were considered critical to the business. Ironically, most of these critical hires were at a senior level the candidates that were holding out for bonuses which created a complex cycle. In alternative investment firms, the year started positively and there was a renewed sense of urgency to fill allocated headcount. It was a challenging year overall as a flight to safety created a downward pressure on Assets Under Management (AUM), causing companies to consider their overheads and backoffice staffing levels. The increase in market confidence we expected at the beginning of the year did not materialise and we saw decreased recruitment and an increase in headcount freezes and reviews, especially during the second half of the year. Cost-saving and company restructuring have become common practice and in the second half of the year recruitment was limited to businesscritical hires rather than led by organic growth. We have seen steady demand for experienced fund accountants, candidates with good regulatory reporting experience and proven finance directors. Candidates moving to another company could expect a pay increase of approximately 10 per cent, depending on how critical the hire was, but bonus percentages largely stayed level with the previous year. With the markets in apparent turmoil and a continuing Eurozone crisis, we expect recruitment levels to be low in 2012 especially in H1 and also for businesses to focus on replacement hires rather than growth. Employers will be focused on strategic hiring and it is likely that they will be looking for technical accountants, internal auditors and regulatory reporting specialists, though recruitment will only materialise once the markets are stable and firms feel that they are strong enough to build on their current teams.

IT Activity across the sector was very similar to that of 2010: in the first half of 2011 hiring and competition levels were strong; but in the second half these levels reduced, and there was less movement from the candidate community due to the uncertainty in the economy and wellpublicised cost cutting measures that came into effect. However the technology world continues to attract talent. This is particularly true of financial services, where ongoing investment in IT remains critical to the success of a business and is seen as a key differentiator. IT staff are clearly valued by their employers and the user communities for the impact they can make in improving what is already in place and for their ability to translate key business drivers into strategic solutions. Indeed, the candidates that demonstrate technical proficiency and a thirst for solving business problems will be at the heart of the war for talent in 2012. In broad terms, the demand for strong candidates in application development was typically high, particularly within FX, equities (including derivatives) and risk (significantly in counterpart exposure management). Some institutions hired heavily in development roles to build greater cross-asset class systems, and by the midpoint of the year clients were beginning to look for talented individuals outside the industry. Across infrastructure and support there were elevated levels of recruitment around cloud computing and grid initiatives. Outside this, there was significant competition in front office application support, Direct Market Access (DMA) and for professionals with core competencies relating to minimising latency (outside of core decision-making systems). Project work remained buoyant for most of 2011, which was good news for business analysts, project managers and business transformation professionals. The split between permanent hires and contractors was quite even, as it was in 2010, but there was less of a push to hire contractors in the second half of 2011, in line with budget and project reviews. Retaining existing talent will be important in 2012. We expect to see a greater pressure to ensure every pound is well spent, as well as the need to balance the requirements of the business with tighter budgets. Clients will have high expectations when hiring and should ensure they have rigorous recruitment processes, including sound competencybased assessments. The competency profile fit of a candidate will be as important as his or her technical skills, and getting hiring right will ensure new additions are a sound investment. In summary, we do not expect recruitment levels to be as buoyant in 2012 as they were in 2011. There will be areas of growth and ongoing investment, but this will come with the pressure to ensure recruitment decisions demonstrate a tangible return on investment. Our recommendation to all clients is to run an efficient recruitment process and to make sure that all those who are involved in recruitment processes can effectively articulate the opportunities on offer to candidates. There will be a plentiful supply of candidates in the early stages of the year, but with this there will be a greater level of choice. Organisations and interviewers who impress candidates in all areas of the interview process including the basic elements of assessments stand the greatest chance of hiring the people they want. 16 BANKING & FINANCIAL SERVICES HUDSON SALARY GUIDE 2012

OPERATIONS The year has been challenging for operations, with organisations suffering from reduced headcount expectations and final approval procedures becoming more stringent. Quarter 1 and 2 were fairly consistent. The majority of posts at Assistant Vice President (AVP) level and higher were covered by permanent hires, whereas the posts at analyst and senior analyst level were covered by interim hires. This trend continued into Q3 and Q4, though roles slowly became more focused on projects that included elements of change management and process improvement. As a result of the poor market conditions, organisations have started to look for a higher calibre of candidate. Generally, they are no longer looking for people who can merely do the job, but personnel who can add extra value by driving new processes and procedures. Consequently, the recruitment process has become increasingly difficult and drawn-out, plus an increasing pressure to headhunt candidates from rival businesses has developed. The demand for traditional back-office and core operations roles has remained limited and, as a cost-saving exercise, some investment banks have off-shored or near-shored these areas of the business. The call for settlements, reconciliations, collateral, corporate actions and similar skill sets has decreased, and a shortage of these candidates in London has had a knock-on effect on the numbers of candidates following the natural progression into middle office. With the demand for these back office roles at a minimum, the emphasis in London has shifted to process improvements, projects and exposure to multiple asset classes, change management and new market initiatives. The perceived outlook for 2012 is very similar to that of the latter parts of 2011 namely, more outsourcing of traditional core operations roles and a focus on projects, change and business improvements. Organisations expectations are believed to stay the same and that the in-demand candidates will be those who can carry out project work over and above their business-asusual tasks. Most banks will look to bulk-up middle office areas across all asset classes, but particularly in interest rate derivatives, credit derivatives and equity derivatives. As a result of the market crash, and where pure reconciliation and settlement roles have mainly been off-shored or near-shored, there has been and will be more emphasis on risk and controls within middle office. This is attractive to candidates as they gain more exposure and responsibility on top of their traditional middle office/trade support duties. We expect the key areas of hiring to be change management, process improvement and business analysis. These positions are vital to many of the re-engineering, off-shoring and general ledger implementation programmes that the majority of organisations are embarking on.

PROJECTS & CHANGE MANAGEMENT The projects and change management market remained largely steady during 2011 in London, but experienced a slight slowdown towards the end of the year. This slowdown was largely due to the pressures of the wider economic environment and resulted in organisations focusing their activity on delivering key strategic and regulatory programmes, while postponing or cancelling other non-critical programmes. As a result, many permanent and interim positions were cancelled or put on hold as part of a larger recruitment freeze until the economic environment becomes more stable. In spite of this slowdown, there was a high demand for Project Management Officers (PMOs) and change managers, as an ever-increasing focus on governance and control affects the way the industry conducts its changes, with organisations investing in central change teams to drive efficiencies and compliance across major programmes. Change professionals with skills in a given asset class, product control and/or a recognised accountancy qualification continue to be in demand, as well as candidates with a background in pure consulting change. The net effect of the slowdown towards the end of 2011 is that there is greater competition for roles. While employers continue to seek the top candidates, they expect these candidates to have as broad a skill set as possible to maximise the effectiveness of their hires. The depressed outlook for the wider financial services market may continue in 2012, but we believe project and change are likely to be among the first areas to pick up and will therefore remain steady over the year as a whole. This is due to the fact that almost all financial services organisations are under pressure to complete key business and finance change projects, either regulatory or structural. Candidates with strong business and process improvement skills are likely to be in demand as organisations look to make efficiency savings where possible. This should ensure that projects and change management remains a lucrative interim market for those with the in-demand skills. Candidates who have been reluctant to enter such a candidateheavy field will be provided with the relevant opportunities in core business and finance change projects.

RISK Recruitment in the risk market was somewhat unpredictable over the course of 2011. In the first half of the year, hiring volumes were high across all risk types a continuation of activity from H2 of 2010. There was huge demand for risk staff up until the end of Quarter 2 in 2011, but in the second half of the year the demand for risk managers levelled off and then began to decline. The compromised global economy and Eurozone crisis have had knock-on effects. Investment banks, in general, recorded losses in H2 of 2011, which meant there were only a few winners in investment banking over the year. Trading revenues were down and this has led to restricted budgets, redundancies and cost-cutting across the City. Statistics showed a significant reduction in hiring mandates, as banks introduced hiring pauses and attempted to build out internal recruitment teams. There were also redundancies in many financial services departments including risk management and as a consequence many firms focused heavily on hiring internally rather than going out to the market. Despite all this, it should be said that although the demand for risk staff dropped in Q2 2011, risk management was still an area less affected than many other vertical markets in the financial services sector. The increasing regulatory and political pressures on financial institutions increased the demand for risk staff in several key areas. Individuals with experience of risk projects, risk modelling, credit analysis and operational risk and controls became highly sought after. Other key pockets of hiring were in commodity trading houses and consultancies. The big four have also been building out their risk advisory capability to put themselves in a good position to win business in 2012 while regulatory pressure continues, budgets remain tight and hiring is limited. From a profile perspective, it is clear that the last couple of years have actually been good for risk management. The quality of staff, the numbers of people employed in risk management, and the influence risk managers now have in businesses are significantly higher. Risk now has a prominent role in each firm and risk teams need to be seen and heard internally and externally. There has been a larger demand for candidates that don t have a background in risk but are looking to work in risk management, including those from trading, front office, auditing, finance and operations roles. Given the higher profile and calibre of risk management employees, however, client companies have been able to hold out for the best candidates and this has created a noticeable imbalance between supply and demand. It is still commonplace for the best candidates to receive multiple offers from interested companies and buy backs from their current employers.
