Financial Institutions and their clients are increasingly being asked to take responsibility for the impact their investments and funding activities have on society. Today, the Bahrain Institute of Banking and Finance (BIBF) announced that it is partnering with Fitch Learning and The London Institute of Banking & Finance (LIBF), to launch its Sustainable Development Academy (SDA) to reskill and upskill banking and finance professionals. This initiative is seen as key to helping the Kingdom achieve its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and realising Bahrain Economic Vision 2030.
The Sustainable Development Academy brings together the best and brightest changemakers and professionals within the industry to deliver a carefully identified suite of programmes that will equip participants with knowledge and competencies essential to undertake crucial work in the field of sustainable finance.
