ABBL scholarship: a strategic commitment to academic and leadership excellence
Published on 13 May 2025
In a financial sector where change is constant – driven by digitalisation and evolving regulations – strengthening talent requires more than technical expertise. It calls for a structured development path that blends technical, cross-sectoral and soft skills, along with access to higher education programmes tailored to the industry’s needs. The ABBL Scholarship, developed in close partnership with HEC Liège Luxembourg, reflects a shared conviction: supporting access to higher education and leadership training for the talents of Luxembourg’s financial centre.
Summary
A scholarship reserved for ABBL member employees
Exclusively available to employees of ABBL member institutions, the scholarship offers €10,000 towards tuition fees for the HEC Liège Luxembourg International MBA Programme. With total tuition set at €29,000, the remaining €19,000 may be covered according to each employer’s internal policy.
