ABOUT EIF
Established in 1983, the EIF is building upon 40 years of excellence to enter a new era. With a new three-year strategy
(2023-2026) developed based on strong foresight of future trends in the sector, EIF is perfectly positioned to ensure the realization of its key objectives:
- Setting a regional benchmark and becoming a world-class institute, building capabilities for a stronger and more diverse financial services sector,
- Elevating existing competencies within the sector for both Emiratis and expats,
- Supporting thought leadership and industry research in the sector, and
- Leading the efforts to achieve the Emiratization agenda, by attracting Emirati nationals to pursue a career in the financial services sector.
Our new 2023-2026 strategy is based on two main pillars:
- Human Capital Development (training and certifications, standard setting, Emiratization, SMART human capital Management)
- Innovation Lab (Technical sandbox, Networking platform, Think Tank)
OUR VISION
Enabling the next generation of world-class financial services specialists by building capabilities, setting standards, and fostering innovation in the sector.
OUR MISSION
The new strategy is designed to take EIF from a “Traditional Training Institute” into a “World-Class Centre for Talent Development and Innovation,” supporting the sustainability of the financial services sector, by providing:
