We are LIBF
The London Institute of Banking & Finance has been providing education, training and insight for the financial sector for over 140 years.
Our journey started in 1879, when a group of bankers came together to establish industry benchmarks and best practices. Today, The London Institute of Banking & Finance continues to offer outstanding education and training to those looking to build a career in the sector. We were granted Taught Degree Awarding Powers in 2010, becoming the first professional body in the UK to achieve this distinction, and continue to lead the way in providing innovative financial solutions for the modern and ever-changing world of banking and finance.
As part of our commitment to support international competency development, we established our first regional office for MENA to deliver the same education and training that has set the industry standard in Britain. Our programmes cover everything from fintech to geopolitical risk and are delivered through a combination of flexible learning methods to ensure they are accessible by all. We also emphasise real-world, practical education, so those studying with us can quickly apply the knowledge and skills gained to their working lives as they help shape the future of the industry.

We are very happy to have worked with LIBF on the Ghaya programme, as they have set an amazing example of a perfectly socially responsible business. LIBF did an amazing job on developing the content of the programme but went above and beyond that by contributing their time to run the programme with Maan.
