Our History

The Institute is a not-for-profit institution established in 1974 to support the Bahamas’ financial services industry development. It was the idea of Mr. T.

We have earned a strong international reputation for our comprehensive suite of high-quality, industry relevant and cutting-edge training and  education programmes
