SBV and ATTF cooperate in transferring financial technology
The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) in coordination with Agence de Transfer de Technologies Financiere (ATTF) of Luxembourg have organized several training courses under the sponsorship of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Luxembourg for a large number of staff working in the financial and banking sector of Vietnam. This program falls under the framework of the Protocol signed by the Governments of Vietnam and Luxembourg in 2000.
ATTF was founded in October, 1999 with the mission of transferring financial technology to developing countries in Europe and Asia. Accordingly, ATTF has coordinated with the SBV in organizing such training courses ever since.
As an entity of the SBV and assigned by the SBV Governor, the Banking Training Center has coordinated with various SBV departments, namely, the International Cooperation Department, the Personnel Department and other relevant entities have been successfully and effectively carrying out many training programs of ATTF in Vietnam in order to make a great contribution to capacity building for banking staff. Two main programs namely “Key operations in managing a commercial bank” and “International Financial Markets” have been implemented in recent years. These programs aim at helping trainees to gain basic understanding of international financial markets as well as providing trainees with comprehensive, systematic and updated knowledge of key operations in commercial bank management, and so on.
As a follow up of the successful courses over the past years, in 2009, the ATTF continues to coordinate with the SBV in implementing “Key operations in managing a commercial bank” Program and the second phase of “International Financial Markets” Program. In addition, the ATTF plans to open other new programs such as the preparatory course for exams to obtain ACI Dealing Certificate granted by the International Financial Market Association. The course aims at helping the trainees to grasp necessary knowledge and skills of a money and foreign exchange trader in line with international standards.
After nearly 10 years of training programs in Vietnam, the cooperation between the SBV and ATTF has increasingly born fruit. In its ongoing coordination with the ATTF, the Banking Training Center has become a reliable destination to meet the training requirement of enriching the knowledge and the professional and management skills for Vietnamese banking and financial staff.
