The Chartered Banker Institute plays a leading role in developing and embedding socially purposeful, responsible and professional banking by developing and supporting professional bankers throughout their careers. Responsible banking must be delivered by professional bankers. Through this, we contribute to rebuilding confidence and trust in banks and bankers and restoring pride in the banking profession.
The Institute was one of the first UK organisations to endorse the UN Principles for Responsible Banking, and the first in the World to launch a Certificate in Green and Sustainable Finance. Through initiatives like these, the Institute aims to build a responsible, professional and sustainable banking profession, which is accessible to all.
