Hedge Fund Administrator Training

Monday September 1st, 2008

The Bahamas Institute of Financial Services (BIFS) will introduce a Diploma in Hedge Fund Administration programme this Fall, in conjunction with CLT International and the University of Manchester.

An Industry Training Sub Committee of BFSB’s Funds Working Group has collaborated with BIFS and CLT in promoting the launch of the programme. Chairman of the Sub-Group, Antoine Bastian of Genesis Fund Services, says “I think the Hedge Fund Diploma Programme provides a critical, focused and needed academic tool that will foster and enhance current and future employees in the fund industry with technical and systematic training and development. It can only benefit the investment fund business in The Bahamas.”

The programme offers a degree level, certificated programme resulting in a recognised practical qualification, awarded in association with the University of Manchester’s Business School. It offers a variety of study options and extensive support and resource material.
