Hong Kong Academy of Finance’s 2023 intake of the Financial Leaders Programme is open for application

The Hong Kong Academy of Finance (AoF) announced that the 2023 intake of the Financial Leaders Programme (FLP) is open for application today (10 October).  Commencing in 2022, the FLP aims to inspire financial talents, to equip them with a mindset to lead and look at issues from a macro perspective, as well as to expand their network.

The FLP offers a unique opportunity for participants to engage in dialogue with top leaders in financial services and other sectors.  Each year, the FLP will admit around 20 promising financial talents from a diverse background at approximately two levels below the Chief Executive Officer position.  The FLP will be offered on a part-time basis and last for about nine months, with the 2023 Programme commencing in April 2023.  Application will open between 10 October and 11 December 2022.  Applications received will be considered by the Membership Committee of the AoF.  Further information about the FLP and the application form are available from the AoF website.

The FLP is jointly supported by the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau and the financial regulators in Hong Kong, namely the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), the Securities and Futures Commission, the Insurance Authority and the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Authority.

Mr Eddie Yue, the Chairman of the AoF and the Chief Executive of the HKMA, said, “Building a pipeline of top financial talents with global perspectives and thought leadership capabilities is important to the further development of Hong Kong as an international financial centre.  I strongly recommend this prestigious programme and encourage our financial talents to grasp the opportunity to join or nominate your promising staff to join the FLP.”
