China

Established in China in 1903, ABN AMRO currently has 14 branches and employs more than 1,000 staff in China. In July 2007, we received approval from the China Banking Regulatory Commission for local incorporation in China and we're fully licensed and qualified to invest in the domestic stock market and provide derivatives services.

We were one of the first banks accepted to enter China's inter-bank foreign exchange trading market. In addition, since the introduction of Van Gogh Preferred Banking to China in 2003, our customer based has multiplied by more than five-fold. We were awarded "Most Innovative Wealth Management Product of Year 2006" for Van Gogh Preferred Banking in China.

Headquartered in Shanghai, we plan to grow our business in China by 300% over the next five years and expand our network to more than 20 branches by the end of 2008.

In China, on the Management Associate Programme, you can choose one of three business areas in which to develop your career.

You’ll be trained in our innovative commercial banking products, such as Derivatives, FX, Bonds and IPOs, and will develop your skills through rotations in Commercial Banking business, Client Coverage, Investment Banking, Fixed Income Sales, Fixed Income Trading, Structured Derivatives, Transaction Banking and Strategic Planning. It’s a broad programme that gives you an insight into the many different areas of commercial banking.

On our Consumer Banking programme, you'll develop the skills and expertise you need for a career in Wealth Management, Consumer Finance and Business Banking by focusing on developing your communication, marketing and analytical skills.

You'll discover how these teams work in partnership with the business to achieve their goals. Each area will enable you to develop your strategic thinking and project management skills to meet customer needs and provide opportunities to work on your own initiative or in teams. On completion of the programme, you'll have a good understanding of which team you'll want to join.
