Lateral Transfer Into HK/SG Advice

Currently a 1st year analyst at a major European bank doing DCM/ECM and will be doing a short stint within the S&T side as well.

Does anyone have any advice or experience in terms of looking for external opportunities within either IB or S&T with firms within the Asia region?

From my understanding applying directly would yield me an asian contract (less pay etc). Is this true? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
