Compagnie Monégasque de Banque hosted on Tuesday 24 October 2017 the first session of the Philanthropy Academy at the Méridien hotel which is the Bank’s response to a growing demand from its clientele in this area.
The six-module course covers all the topics that a philanthropist needs to understand in order to embark on the adventure: evaluation criteria, vision, opportunities, resources and partners, in short, all the ingredients necessary for the success of his/her project.
CMB's team of lecturers is also supported by external experts and guest speakers who will shed light on topics such as taxation specific to philanthropic actions.
For its kickoff, the first guest speaker was, His Excellency Bernard Fautrier, Vice-President and CEO of the Albert II Foundation. Other personalities will come to share their experience, including Sir Stelios, founder of the Stelios Philanthropic Foundation and President of Easy Jet Group.
The Philanthropy Academy is in line with its older sister, the Academy Women & Finance which is already in its second cycle.
