At the Chartered Banker Institute, we are committed to raising the standards of professionalism in banking
and nancial services. We do this by engaging with the sector to develop customer-focused professional
standards and qualications relevant for todays bankers. In 2011, we launched the Chartered BankerProfessional Standards Board (CB:PSB), to enhance and sustain professionalism in banking. Please see
www.cbpsb.org for more details.
What is Chartered Banker?
Chartered Banker is the gold standard for professionals working in the banking sector. Recognised and
supported by major nancial services organisations across the globe, Chartered Banker gives you a world
class qualication that will help you achieve and maintain the standards of excellence and professionalism
expected by clients and employers.
Chartered Banker is a practical, professional programme that combines theory and practice. The
overall aim of the programme is to provide you with an extensive, detailed and critical knowledge and
understanding of the banking sector and to develop your skills and abilities to make professional
judgements and informed decisions in relevant work situations.
In a YouGov UK-wide survey, when asked about condence in the banking sector:
almost twice as many respondents would have more trust in a banker who is a qualied Chartered
Banker than a banker with an MBA.
almost six times as many respondents would have more trust in a banker who is a qualied
Chartered Banker than a banker with a degree.
57% of business decision-makers, who expressed an opinion, had a preference for working
with a relationship manager who is a Chartered Banker.
A Chartered Banker:
has demonstrated and continues to demonstrate standards of professional excellence;
continually develops their skills and knowledge; and
complies with the Chartered Banker Institutes Code of Professional Conduct.
Who should become a Chartered Banker?
We believe that if you are committed to a career in banking and improving the standards of
professionalism in the sector you will benet from Chartered Banker status.
How can I become a Chartered Banker?
We understand that there are many different career paths in banking and have therefore developed a
variety of routes to Chartered Banker status. So, whether you are new to banking or have many years
experience, there is a route to suit you.
