IBF is turning 50 this year! #ibf50

The story of IBF has been one of partnership and collaboration since its inception in 1974.

In the early years, IBF started off as a training institute. In 2001, IBF repositioned itself to take on a more strategic role of setting competency standards, and accrediting training programmes for the financial sector. In 2018, our mandate expanded to include jobs development. We have continually reinvented ourselves, and co-created many bold initiatives with the industry. Every milestone was only possible with the support of our tripartite partners.

As we celebrate our 50th Anniversary this year, we look forward to strengthening our partnerships to drive professional excellence and career resilience of the financial sector workforce.

Visit our anniversary microsite to learn more about our 50 year journey and Golden Jubilee celebrations!

Today we launched the 🌟IBF Golden Jubilee ITE Scholarship🌟, which would provide 50 eligible ITE final-year students with a study award and a 5-month internship with a financial institution. This initiative would offer selected ITE students the opportunity to gain practical experience and acquire relevant skills within the financial sector.

13 Financial Institutions (FIs), including BNP Paribas, DBS Bank, GREAT EASTERN, HSBC, Howden, J.P. Morgan, Maybank Singapore, Mizuho Bank, MSIG Insurance, OCBC, Prudential Assurance Company Singapore, Singapore Exchange and UOB are partnering IBF and ITE to make this possible.

Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) were signed between IBF, ITE and the participating FIs to further solidify our collective commitment to provide scholarship and internship opportunities to ITE students and graduates.

🌱 The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and Institute of Banking and Finance (IBF), supported by Workforce Singapore (WSG), today launched the Sustainable Finance Jobs Transformation Map (JTM), which lays out the impact of sustainability trends on jobs in Singapore’s financial services sector and the emerging skills that the workforce will require to serve sustainable financing demands in the region.
