Why the MBA power shift from West to East is poised to gather pace

On the shift in demand for MBAs from the west to the east, Ang Ser Keng, Academic Director of SMU Master of Business Administration said there have “been some shifts in the centre of gravity for MBAs over the years”. There are several reasons for the shift. For one, Asian institutions have “come of age”. “They have invested heavily in world-class faculty and infrastructure, and they are now well-ranked globally,” he added.
