I might be wrong here, but it does sound like one of those management trainee programs, where they take in graduates from almost any background for training. And if that is the case, then it's likely going to be for something related to their core business, which is finance/investment, not IT. But that's just my suspicion, which might be wrong. To find out for sure, ask them this question. on what types of work are you most likely to be doing if you do get absorbed, and if it'll be in IT or not.

From what ive hear, the programme took graduates from any background for the training and they prioritize graduate that took scholarship from them. Thank you, ill try to call them and ask them regarding the question. Much appreciated.

It's not a secret that most of the firm's do offer management trainee programs
