Culture​

CLSA’s culture is defined by our employees.​

We value individuals, who collectively and collaboratively drive the organisation forward.​

Founded by two former journalists, CLSA was created to provide global asset managers differentiated insights and superior sales service. With clients at the centre of all that we do, CLSA’s culture is underpinned by our core values of excellence, innovation, integrity, inclusion and celebration.​

Diversity​

CLSA employees are global citizens whose diversity of academic, cultural, professional and life experiences enrich our corporate culture.​

Conscious efforts to diversify our employee base include recruiting, training and promoting women, taking interns from diverse economic backgrounds, providing an inclusive workplace for the LGBT population and people limited by physical disabilities.​

Employee Networks​

Employees represent their interests across the organisation.​

Collaborative employee networks provide opportunities for networking, knowledge sharing and greater collaboration across businesses, functions and cultures at CLSA. The CLSA Gender Equality Network and Women in IT network are active platforms for exchange.​

Area of Business​

CLSA employees work across Global Equities, Corporate Finance & Capital Markets and Asset Management as well as the corporate functions that support these businesses.​

CLSA’s global headquarters is Hong Kong where the majority of our business heads and support function heads are located. Our key offices across Asia, Australia, the Americas and Europe are managed by highly experienced global executives and supported by local and multi-cultural teams.​

Career Development

A career at CLSA puts you at the forefront of the global capital markets. We value professionals from diverse backgrounds and new professionals looking for a career in finance.

  • Experienced Professionals: Executives who join CLSA come from a variety of sectors and prefer a flat structure, non-bureaucratic work place where their ideas and experience are valued immediately.
  • New Professionals: CLSA takes young professionals with a minimum of three years’ experience rather than new graduates. We provide training and opportunities for movement across the business. 
  • Broking Academy: The CLSA Broking Academy is training programme for executives with three to five years professional experience. The programme is not currently open for application.
  • Learning and Development: Development is a two way process here at CLSA, the more you put in the more you will get out! From day one you have access to an extensive online platform which is complemented by various face to face development initiatives. Your ongoing career development will be supported from day one.

Internships

CLSA offers a comprehensive eight-week internship programme for aspiring graduates considering a career in financial services in Asia. From our global headquarters in Hong Kong, a cohort of interns benefit from a comprehensive introduction to Asia’s leading capital markets and investment firm.
