Fund Training

International Fund Officer

Secure a strategic knowledge advantage in the international fund business – in just 3 days of training in Luxembourg, Dublin or Dubai.

As a complementary qualification to the Swiss Fund Officer, Fund Academy offers the International Fund Officer – a compact, three-day intensive programme in Luxembourg or Dublin. Of course, you can also participate at both locations. The programme takes place as part of our Know the FUNDamentals courses in Luxembourg and Dublin.

Through practical modules, you will expand your knowledge of the regulatory, product-specific and market-specific characteristics of two of Europe’s leading fund centres. The programme concludes with a certification exam.

All Swiss Fund Officers can obtain the International Fund Officer by successfully completing a Know the FUNDamentals course in Luxembourg, Dublin or Dubai.
The title “International Fund Officer” not only demonstrates your international expertise but also strengthens your position in the global fund market.

Part of the Know the FUNDamentals programmes in Luxembourg, Dublin and Dubai.
