Financial services firms more optimistic about future prospects
The financial services sector seems more positive about the coming year in comparison to respondents across all other sectors, according to the latest research from Thomsons Online Benefits. Almost half of financial services respondents anticipate a pay rise of either 2% or 3% in the coming year.
These are just some of the newest industry insights revealed in the first Thomsons “Employee Rewards Watch: Financial services”, in which 47 financial services organisations took part.
