Sulaiman Alnafa
Head of Riyad Academy
“Today, at Riyad Bank, we are proud of the significant successes achieved through our solid partnership with The Financial Academy (TFA), which has led to building the capacities of thousands of the Bank’s employees. Over 3,000 employees received training in a wide range of courses, most notably were:
- Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing (AML/CTF) programs
- A number of professional certificates
- Niche development programs supporting sustainable professional growth
This year (2025) was special for our partnership with TFA; as a number of the Academy's experts featured “Riyad Talk”, which hosted a select group of banking sector gurus to provide in-depth insights on various key issues such as cybersecurity, Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) standards, sustainability, and other topics related to the landscape of finance and banking systems.
This strategic partnership between Riyad Bank and The Financial Academy reflects a shared commitment to building and improving national talent in the banking sector, standing as a perfect example of supporting human capital and bolstering the sector's readiness to achieve the goals of Saudi Vision 2030.
