1 RESPONSIBLE BANKING COURSES (Online) 1

2 Introduction The Responsible Banking Educational Programmes are organized by three major international players in the banking and academic sectors (the IEB, the World Savings Banks Institute and the London School of Economics Executive Education). The Executive Master in Responsible Banking (MRB) and the Responsible Finance Management Programme (RFMP) seek to inspire bankers to implement the necessary cultural changes inside the banking and financial industry to win back client trust and to gain a competitive advantage; as we understand it, the future of banking will depend on organisations behaving with integrity, covering environmental, social, economic and governance issues while respecting all stakeholders. We offer the possibility of completing the Executive Master in Responsible Banking courses (Advanced Courses) or the Responsible Finance Management Programme courses (Foundation Courses) separately. Responsible Banking Advanced Courses The Executive Master contains 7 courses; five courses for Module 1, one course for Module II and one course for Module III as seen in the attached diagram. Each course lasts 6 weeks and on completion, students obtain an Advanced Certificate in that Responsible Banking Course.
