Guess how much a CFO in Hong Kong earns

It's a whopping HKD$2.2
-
3.5m per annum.

According to Robert Walters' 2013 Global Salary Survey, Hong Kong's financial services sector was impacted by challenging global market conditions and job levels remained relatively low throughout the year. 

However, the survey noted that there were some encouraging signs in the front office space, where banks sought corporate bankers in trade finance and supply chain, private bankers and sales professionals in the consumer banking and insurance sectors.

The survey also added that salary levels are expected to remain unchanged across all sectors. However, due to the shortage of
candidates
with
both
finance management
and
business
partnering
skills in
the
market,
Robert Walters
predicts
modest
salary increments
at
managerial
and
director
levels.

In the accounting and finance sector, Chief Finance Officers received a salary of HKD$2.2
-
3.5m+ per annum in 2012. This is likely to stay at $2.0
-
3.5m+ per year in 2013. Figure 1 shows the salary list of professionals under the Accounting and Finance sector.
