Because it's banking, not a start up - go to Silicon Valley of you want to be around creative and inspiring people

I think NYC has more creative and inspiring people in some ways. Silicon Valley had turned into a monoculture. Just get out of finance or working in a super old industry.

That's a very generic association for creativity

But in terms of creativity - it plays into how you succeed in this business. There is some creativity but the general work is very structured which either relates to the type of person that chooses it or affects all of us in the way we think (in a less flexible way).

Well, you asked a very generic question :) Indeed, there are some inspiring people in the industry. But their experience is much more valuable than their imagination or creativity. Especially these days, when regulators are doing their best to shut down any creative ideas in banking..

Creativity = risk. To many risk averse people in this industry.
