Award for LBA - pro-active and leading in shaping the future
The Liechtenstein Bankers Association receives the prestigious 2019 award for outstanding contribution to good governance Liechtenstein from Capital Finance International (CFI.co).
Capital Finance International (CFI.co), awarded the Liechtenstein Bankers Association (LBA) the prestigious prize for outstanding contribution to good governance in Liechtenstein. CFI.co mentions that it was impressed by LBA’s instinctive understanding of shaping the future of a financial centre. The LBA is characterised by strong leadership and co-operation, combined with a future-oriented and innovative approach. For CFI.co this dedication was instrumental in successfully shaping the tax conformity strategy of the years following 2010. According to CFI.co the Roadmap 2015 as well as the subsequent Roadmap 2020 and their consequent implementation over the last couple of years has been important for the successful transformation of the financial centre. For them it is clear that the two pillars - sustainability and digitalisation – are the key drivers and primary issues in moving forward. CFI.co concludes that as a result, the LBA is the financial centre’s main voice and Liechtenstein’s most significant trade association.
Simon Tribelhorn, the CEO of LBA, is delighted and honoured to receive this award: “The award confirms that our efforts to serve our members as well as to advance Liechtenstein as a banking and financial centre are bearing fruit. I am especially proud that CFI.co recognizes our pro-active approach and particularly mentions the day-care centre for employees’ children (Villa Wirbelwind) as a very practical best practice example”. He continues: “The award is a fantastic recognition of our amazing team and the result of our hard work. But it is also an incentive for us to continue pursuing the path we have taken and the professionalisation of the Bankers Association as an innovative, modern and dynamic trade association."
