In a statement, HDFC Bank said the programme will help it create a pipeline of qualified young executives. The Future Bankers programme is a full-time residential course where participants spend the first six months at MGA-BFSI’s campus and the next six with the bank as an intern.

"We believe that customer experience will define the future of banking. Giving them a uniform yet high-quality experience across touchpoints is what will set a winner apart. The Future Bankers programme will allow the bank to have at its disposal a cadre of highly-trained, well-rounded professionals to do just that," said Vinay Razdan, Chief Human Resource Officer, HDFC Bank.
