The Chicago workforce outlook
Chicago is a major center of activity in the insurance industry. It is home to the most geographically diverse economy in the United States, as well as the third-highest employment rate in the insurance and financial sectors. This economic diversity and the need for financial products have enabled the development of the earliest private banks and exchanges and has led to the emergence of fintech as one of the most rapidly expanding tech verticals in the city. According to a World Business Chicago study, fintech is one of the fastest-growing verticals in Chicago.
A study conducted by World Business Chicago revealed that:
Insurance is one of the most prominent industries in Chicago, owing to its long-standing heritage and capacity for innovation.
Chicago's economic diversity has been a hallmark of the city since its inception. This diversity has been instrumental in the development of the insurance and financial industries and in the formation of the first privately owned banks and stock exchanges, which were established in the city nearly two centuries ago. Today, the city's economic diversity continues to drive innovation and development in the financial technology sector, particularly in the area of Fintech.
Chicago is home to a vibrant Fintech sector, with more than 40,000 people employed in the sector. The majority of those employed in Fintech occupy a variety of positions, ranging from software developers to computer systems analysts. Financial and investment analysts are the most common occupations, followed by financial managers and market research analysts. Market research analysts and marketing managers are also common. This shared talent pool serves as a testament to the strong relationship between the Fintech sector and the wider Finance and Insurance sector. Chicago boasts a higher-than-average number of financial analysts, analysts, and managers, which has seen considerable growth in the past five years.
Chicago ranks third in the United States in terms of employment in the Finance and Insurance sector, however, it lags behind other major metropolitan areas when it comes to attracting and developing talent for key Fintech roles.
