Cities to Consider for A Career in Finance

The global demand for professionals in finance is on the rise. Specifically, as the global economy is rising from the downtime. As it continues to recover, there are gaps being discovered by the human resource development teams, in skills requirements and expertise. Now there are finance jobs that can be found in most cities around the world, but there is a huge difference in the skill set and sector where the opportunity arises. A career in finances in most cases is considered very lucrative. A move to a new city will only be worthwhile for a financial professional if the place they plan to shift to has good opportunities, and to simply put it, you are able to increase your take-home considerably after paying off all the taxes and housing expenses.
London, Germany, Canada, Hong Kong, Japan are the most competitive countries, ideal if you are looking for a stable career in finance.
