IB in Hong Kong?

I’m a Singaporean who will be reading economics at ucl this fall. I’m just curious how recruiting in Hong Kong works (particularly visa sponsorships, application timelines and whether ucl is treated as a target school there), as I’ve seen a couple of uk degree holders who managed to work in Hong Kong after graduation. Obviously the main goal would be breaking into the London and Singapore offices but having another potential option would be great too.

Background: Am fluent in mandarin as that’s basically the language I speak at home, currently familiarising myself with finance terms in mandarin.
