The In­sti­tute of Bank­ing and Fi­nance (IBF) turned the spot­light on its 2025 grad­u­at­ing class dur­ing its An­nu­al Vir­tu­al Grad­u­a­tion Cer­e­mo­ny yes­ter­day, high­light­ing the next gen­er­a­tion of cer­ti­fied fi­nan­cial ad­vi­sors poised to take on the chal­lenges of an evolv­ing, tech­nol­o­gy-dri­ven fi­nan­cial land­scape.

The event un­der­scored the IBF’s on­go­ing push to strength­en pro­fes­sion­al­ism and in­tegri­ty across the sec­tor, while en­cour­ag­ing grad­u­ates to see their cer­ti­fi­ca­tion as the start of a life­long jour­ney of growth and learn­ing.

Vale­dic­to­ri­an Nicholas Abra­ham, speak­ing on be­half of the class, re­flect­ed on the dis­ci­pline and de­ter­mi­na­tion re­quired to com­plete the rig­or­ous cer­ti­fi­ca­tion, much of which was done through self-study.
