The Iraqi Private Banks League, in collaboration with the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, concluded a specialized training course titled "Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and Risk Management for Banks." This aligns with the Central Bank of Iraq’s strategy to enhance ESG standards across the banking sector.
The course drew participation from managers and staff across credit, compliance, risk, marketing, sales, and administrative departments, which contributed to enhancing the capacity of Iraqi banking professionals to adopt international best practices in ESG governance and risk management, thereby achieving greater sustainability within the local banking sector.
