The Monetary Authority of Macao is preparing to launch a foundational training course for bank employees, with courses and examinations expected to be organized through the Macau Institute of Financial Services. The program will cover core banking activities and strengthen employees’ understanding of bank operations, local financial laws, supervisory guidance, risk prevention and control, and professional ethics. A steering working group and an expert group will plan the program and develop its professional content, curriculum and assessment system, taking account of international standards and local requirements. The authority is also considering phased advanced training, including specialist courses in the bond market and wealth management.
