Four Senior Bank Examiners have attended the three-
U.S. Federal Reserve Banking
week course of
the
School for Bank
Examiners.
Their study reports
showed that they were fully up to the standard
required. At a more junior level, staff have
attended courses to acquire their relevant
professional qualifications. Full advantage has been taken of the programmes conducted by the Civil
Service Training Centre and senior officers have
conducted induction and refresher courses for new
and junior staff. Training and operational needs
have, of course, to be kept in balance but to
supervise an industry undergoing fundamental
adjustments, the emphasis on training will
undoubtedly need to be increased.

As regards qualifications, all Senior Bank
Examiners who supervise the examination teams and
the Bank Examiners who lead the teams are
professionally qualified either in banking or in
accountancy. At the junior level some staff are also fully qualified while the majority of the
others are in the course of gaining their
qualifications. Fifty-three staff are qualified; 80
junior staff are in the process of qualifying.
