IESGB x IFTA  Annual Conference

The Institute of Financial Technologists of Asia (IFTA) is a non-profit organization established in Hong Kong in September 2017. Our main goals are to elevate the professional standards of financial technology in Asia, drive fintech education, and cultivate talent for the industry. Building upon the collaboration between IFTA, the London Institute of Banking and Finance (LIBF), and the launch of the Certified FinTech Practitioner (CFP) program last year, we have developed certification requirements for financial technology professionals this year, known as the Certified Financial Technologist (CFT) designation. Our vision is to expand the reach of financial and technology courses to Mainland China, Taiwan, and other regions in Asia. In addition to our comprehensive courses, IFTA organizes a wide range of activities, including seminars, Fintech Awards, and workshops, to promote the development of fintech, nurture professionals, and encourage participation from government bodies, regulatory agencies, universities, corporations, and startups.
