About IFQ

The Islamic Finance Qualification (IFQ) is a ground-breaking qualification offered by the Chartered Institute of Securities & Investment (CISI) – the professional qualification and membership body for the securities and
investment industry.
The IFQ was initiated in 2006 by the Central Bank of Lebanon (Banque du Liban) and was developed by an Advisory Council for Islamic Finance (ACIF), a group of technical experts convened by the CISI in collaboration with Lebanese
Ecole Supérieure des Affaires (ESA)
