The London Institute of Banking & Finance (LIBF) India announced its strategic partnership with the leading management education provider, Management Development Institute (MDI) Gurgaon, during the BFSI Connect 2023 event held on Saturday, October 7 2023.

This collaboration opens doors for banking and finance professionals of India to access bespoke training programmes, Continuing Professional Development (CPD) courses, and Management Development Programmes (MDP) under the esteemed banner of The London Institute of Banking & Finance. This will empower them to excel academically, and prepare for lucrative careers as international banking professionals, particularly in the rapidly growing fintech, banking, and finance sector.

According to McKinsey’s Global Banking Annual Review, approximately 80% of the projected $1.3 trillion increase in global banking revenue between 2021 and 2025 is expected to be concentrated in emerging parts of the world like India, Middle East, Singapore, China, UK, Latin America, and some parts of the United States.
