HSBC Malta Foundation supports the Human Capital Research Project The HSBC Malta Foundation is supporting the Human Capital Research Project through a donation of €120,000. The three year-long research project, headed by Dr Rose Marie Azzopardi and Prof Alexiei Dingli and endorsed by the Ministry for Education, will focus on identifying current and future skills in financial services and banking, information technology, communication, professional, scientific and technical services. Once concluded, the project will contribute to Malta's ongoing competitiveness in the global economy by delivering a series of evidence-based policy recommendations. Simon Vaughan Johnson, CEO at HSBC Malta said: "Malta's success has always been built on the skill and adaptability of its people. As technology continues to drive exponential change across the globe, it's never been more important to focus on upskilling and reskilling. The Human Capital Research Project will play a key role in the formation of national policy in this area, something which the HSBC Malta Foundation is committed to support."
