Talk:Walbrook Institute London

Why was this redirected from "Chartered Institute of Bankers", which is the proper legal name? Psnae 15:07, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

{{request edit}} Page title

Could the title of this article be altered to 'ifs University College' to reflect the institution being awarded 'university college' status in 2013.

This is no longer necessary as the name has changed once more. Gmseow (talk) 10:33, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

Close paraphrasing

This article contains extremely close paraphrasing, so close that it looks like cut-and-paste with minor structural changes, of material on the subjects website, such as About us, Our heritage and ifs Student Investor Challenge, as a quick sample. NebY (talk) 12:59, 9 October 2014 (UTC)

Update page title

Could the title of this article be altered to 'The London Institute of Banking & Finance' to reflect the institution rename as of 15 September 2016. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marketingifs (talk • contribs) 13:58, 15 September 2016 (UTC)

Professional body status

As a for-profit company owned by another company, it does not appear that LIBF meets the normal definitions of a professional association as a non-profit membership organisation (e.g. , ). That there was a chartered professional body is not in doubt, but the charter that established that body passed to LFBF so it is far from clear that LIBF is now a professional body.

Edit request and COI Declaration

Hi, I’d like to disclose that I work for Walbrook Institute London (previously known as LIBF). I’d like to propose some edits to improve the article and ensure accuracy. I’ll suggest changes here for review instead of editing directly to avoid conflicts of interest.

* Specific text to be added or removed:

Can the title of this page please be updated to be Walbrook Institute London? Additionally, I believe the specific changes listed below would help to explain this change further.

At the end of the introduction:

In 2025, LIBF expanded to offer qualifications on topics beyond banking and finance. To reflect this broader focus, the institution changed their name to Walbrook Institute London in 2025. LIBF remains a key part of Walbrook Institute, continuing to oversee its banking and finance qualifications.

−

LIBF Limited, trading as LIBF, holds UK taught degree awarding powers, allowing it to grant degrees up to taught master's degree level. The London Institute of Banking & Finance's Ofqual recognition was transferred to LIBF Limited in 2023.

Walbrook’s professional qualifications are provided under the name LIBF.

* Reason for the change: To better reflect the breadth of our educational offering, we have updated our name and will now be known as Walbrook Institute London rather than LIBF or The London Institute of Banking & Finance. This change went into affect April 2nd 2025. While our institution is now Walbrook Institute London, we will continue to use the LIBF name for our professional financial qualifications and membership services, so we would like to make the difference clear to prevent confusion among readers. *

@Walbrooklondon I can make the move and name changes in the article; thanks to the, official government name change, source you provided. WP:ROGD

But I don't feel comfortable making the other changes due to the sources being the Walbrook website and FE News appearing to fall under. WP:NEWSAGGWP:BLOGS
