The Financial Services Board (FSB) has recognised two qualifications – the Postgraduate Diploma in Financial Planning and the Advanced Postgraduate Diploma in Financial Planning – offered by the University of the Free State’s (UFS) Centre for Financial Planning Law in the Faculty of Law in accordance with the Financial Advisory and Intermediary Services Act (FAIS). In addition to these the FSB has also recognised four degrees offered by the UFS’s School of Management. The degrees are:

  • B.Com. (Risk Management)
  • B.Com. (General Management)
  • B.Com. (Banking)
  • Bachelor of Management Leadership (BML)

All these qualifications are deemed fit and proper for compliance purposes by the FSB.

The Director of the UFS School of Management, Prof Helena van Zyl, says that the recognition of four degree programmes is yet another feather in the cap of the School of Management and the Faculty of Economic and Management Sciences.

Prof. Van Zyl says the School of Management fulfils a vital role in providing excellent and approved financial and business education in South Africa.
