On 24 March 2025, the Diploma Programme in Fiduciary Services at the University of Liechtenstein was launched once again, welcoming a new cohort of 40 students. Offered by the Professorship for Company, Foundation and Trust Law, this specialised and practice-oriented programme is designed to prepare participants for qualified careers in the fiduciary sector. The curriculum provides in-depth knowledge in the areas of law, taxation, business administration, asset management, and investment advisory.

Both the Diploma and Certificate Programmes in Fiduciary Services—which also serve as preparation for the Liechtenstein fiduciary licensing examination—have enjoyed strong popularity for many years. This reflects not only the appeal of the programme but also the high competitiveness of Liechtenstein’s fiduciary sector, which is characterised by strong value creation and resilience in times of crisis. Serving national and international clients requires deep expertise in legal, economic, fiscal, and social matters. To meet these demands, the Diploma Programme combines academic insight with practical content delivered by experienced industry professionals.

This year marks the first-time collaboration with VP Bank. Through this new partnership, VP Bank employees will have the opportunity to attend selected sessions within the Diploma Programme. The tailor-made course is specifically designed to meet the continuing education needs of VP Bank, particularly in its role as an intermediary bank.
