The need was established following a business trip and series of introductions to New Zealand captains of industry, Institute of Director members and Government officials by Philippa Foster Back in August 2010.
The IBE has signed two Memoranda of Understanding, with the Institute of Financial Advisers and with Kensington Swan

Institute of Financial Advisers
In January 2011 the IBE signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Institute of Financial Advisers to provide the financial services sector in New Zealand with business ethics training for the first time >>link to press release. "Doing business ethically is an integral part of establishing trusting relationships and an effective business culture, and I am delighted that the Institute of Business Ethics will be able to contribute towards a stronger appreciation of professional ethics in the New Zealand finance sector by working with the IFA," says Philippa Foster Back OBE, Director of the IBE.
"The leadership displayed by the IFA in this area will help ensure that financial advisers in NZ are indeed amongst the best trained and most professional at what they do. I hope that this partnership will be the first of many in New Zealand.
Short, 2 hour Professionalism courses for IFA members (2 CPD points available) and others in financial services will be available from May 2011. Further details in the press release here.
