A global alumni community working together to support new talent entering the industry

The ifs School of Finance has a remit to support the financial services industry in developing a highly skilled and competent workforce and is committed to ensuring that talented students from all backgrounds are given the best opportunities to pursue careers in banking and finance.

The Alumni Fund gives past ifs students the opportunity to participate in this vision and support diverse future generations of financial services professionals. The primary purpose of the Fund is to provide support for students undertaking the ifs’ full-time undergraduate degree programmes. With the cost of higher education ever increasing, such support will help to ensure that talented students are able to access ifs programmes, and from there progress into roles in banking and finance where they will contribute to a sustainable and positive future for the industry.

Every year the ifs publishes a report on the work of the Fund. The report is a celebration of the gifts received from donors who share a commitment to, and a belief in, the ongoing success of the ifs School of Finance and its students. It is also an opportunity for donors to learn about the various different projects the Fund has supported and the positive effect this has made towards the overall student learning experience. The report is made available to all donors and published on the ifs website.
