At a festive awards ceremony, 20 participants in the continuing education programme in National and International Taxation recently celebrated their successful graduation from the University of Liechtenstein.

In his congratulatory speech, Roger H. Hartmann, CEO of VP Bank, emphasized the necessity of lifelong continuing education with regard to the high demands placed on people that are active in the financial services industry, and in private wealth management in particular. For people who are active in the financial services industry in Europe, fundamental knowledge of national and international taxation is a necessity nowadays in order to provide client-oriented consulting services, and thus a key component to success.
