The Spanish Institute of Banking and Finance (IEBF) is an initiative of CUNEF University and the AEB Foundation that fosters the exchange of knowledge and ideas on the present and future of the financial sector.
The IEBF is an alliance between the academic world, researchers affiliated with financial institutions, and professionals, aiming to contribute to closing the gap between academic thought and practical applications.
Its mission is structured as a think tank from which to disseminate knowledge of interest to businesses and society, always with the rigor of academic research.
To this end, it periodically conducts analyses on current topics and organizes seminars, dialogue tables, and debate forums, most notably the ‘Banking Lab’—a space for reflection on relevant issues for the banking sector that has become a benchmark since its creation in 2018. Likewise, the IEBF promotes technical reports, working papers, and technical notes.
