In response to an ever-evolving financial landscape, House of Training, in partnership with ABBL (Association des Banques et Banquiers, Luxembourg) and ALFI (Association of the Luxembourg Fund Industry), is launching two new risk management certifications. Designed for banking and investment fund professionals, these certifications integrate the latest regulatory developments and industry best practices, covering both public and private markets.
Certifications aligned with market needs and future challenges
Developed in close collaboration with ABBL and ALFI, and shaped by an in-depth analysis of their members ‘expectations, these certifications address emerging trends and evolving regulations. Their content will be regularly reviewed and updated to stay aligned with market realities and regulatory shifts.
The blended learning approach combines theory with practical applications, ensuring that participants understand core principles while building skills that can be directly applied to their professional activities.
"Developing training programmes that meet professionals’ needs is essential for ensuring effective risk management. This certification provides a valuable opportunity to enhance expertise and address both current and future challenges.” – Jerry Grbic, CEO of ABBL.
A modular, practical, and results-driven training programme
These certifications offer a well-balanced mix of theoretical learning and with real-world case studies. The modular structure allows professionals to progress at their own pace, ensuring an optimal balance between training and their professional commitments.
For those seeking rapid upskilling, an intensive multi-day seminar will be available, providing a fast-track path to certification. Delivered by recognised experts selected in partnership with ABBL and ALFI, these training programmes guarantee a high level of expertise, industry insight and quality.
"This certification responds to the growing risk management demands in the investment fund industry. It equips professionals with the critical skills and knowledge needed to navigate the rapid growth of private assets over the past decade, enabling them to anticipate and manage emerging challenges effectively," adds Serge Weyland, CEO of ALFI.
A phased rollout for the financial sector
The Risk Management certification for banking professionals will be available in the first half of 2025, while the certification for investment fund professionals will be launched in the second half of the year. These programmes will continuously evolve to keep pace with new financial risks, regulatory developments and market expectations.
With these certifications, House of Training reaffirms its commitment and role as forward-thinking industry partner, empowering financial professionals with the expertise needed to tackle tomorrow’s risk management challenges with confidence and precision.
