The Malaysian financial landscape has been transformed in the recent years to one that is sound, competitive and well-diversified. To support the dynamic growth of the Malaysian financial sector, the financial services industry comprising commercial banks, investment banks, Islamic banks, development financial institutions, insurance companies and takaful operators unveiled the Financial Sector Talent Enrichment Programme (FSTEP) in September 2007 to develop new talents.
FSTEP, the brainchild of the Governor of Bank Negara Malaysia Tan Sri Dr Zeti Akhtar Aziz is managed by Institut Bank-Bank Malaysia and driven by the financial services industry with the objective to train and prepare highly calibre graduates for employment in the financial services institutions.
FSTEP Marks A Fresh Starts With Syllabus Enhancement
Kuala Lumpur, 20 July 2010 – Financial Sector Talent Enrichment Programme (FSTEP) which is managed by Institut Bank-Bank Malaysia (IBBM) in collaboration with Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) today has unveiled the new enhanced syllabus for its next intake in early 2011.
To date, FSTEP has trained more than 680 aspiring graduates spanning over 4 batches starting December 2007. Some of the FSTEP graduates have secured responsible positions in the banking and financial industry.
The syllabus is a culmination of collaborative efforts between FSTEP Quality Assurance Committee, Senior Officers of Bank Negara Malaysia and the experienced industry practitioners of both banking and insurance industries. The syllabus enhancement involves two aspects namely, the programme design and the delivery methods to benchmark against the best practices in the area of human resource development.
