The AFLP is one of the best leadership programmes I have attended. Very pragmatic and thought-provoking concepts and practices shared by leaders both from the Industry and the Academia.

Gireesh Bhargava, Joint General Manager, Head - Offshore Corporate Banking, South Asia, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation

The programme has not only exposed us to world class academicians and practitioners globally, but it has also been a real catalyst to forge friendships and learnings through peers who are at the top of their field in the finance industry in Singapore. These bonds are invaluable.
