The history of LIBF

Back in 1879, there were no qualifications for bank workers and few opportunities to progress. United by the need for professional recognition for their skills and experience, a small group of banking professionals set up the first Institute of Bankers in England and Wales, which later became LIBF. Today, LIBF provides students all around the world with everything they need to learn flexibly through online or blended courses and is the only professional body in the world with taught degree awarding powers. They have a global community of students and alumni spanning over 130 countries.

Life & Culture in the UK

The UK offers a vibrant and diverse culture, with its multicultural cities, landscapes, and rich history. London, the site of LIBF's main campus, is a hub for arts, culture, and business. Studying in such a historically diverse city allows students from all over the globe to be integrated into a melting pot of cultures. Furthermore, it enhances your networking sphere via its part-time jobs and graduate roles in one of the world’s leading financial hubs.

Health Care

Once you arrive in the UK, it is recommended that you register with a local doctor (General Practitioner or GP). As part of the student visa process, you will be required to pay an immigration health surcharge, which gives you access to the National Health Service (NHS) in the same way UK residents have. This covers most health care, although there can be charges for dental treatment and medicines.

Ensuring your academic success is a cornerstone of LIBF's approach. Their dedicated tutors are always ready to support you, offering guidance to understand complex concepts and overcome study challenges.
