FLAIRS - The Real Deal or Good Fake

FLAIRS is the biggest annual interbank event in the Netherlands, where young and ambitious bankers share their ideas about the financial sector through thought-provoking workshops, presentations and inspiring panel discussions.

FLAIRS is a unique event for young financial professionals in the Netherlands: it is hosted by young professionals for young professionals, it combines knowledge sharing and discussions with inspiring presentations by leading financial figures, and it helps young professionals to establish networks within the financial sector.

The first FLAIRS event was organised back in 2006 for the members of the youth associations from Fortis, van Lanschot, ABN AMRO, ING, Rabobank and SNS Reaal. As the organisations have changed form, the current audience of FLAIRS exists of the youth associations from ABN AMRO, ING, Rabobank, de Volksbank and Van Lanschot Kempen. Each year, FLAIRS is organised as a one-day event for the young ambitious bankers of these youth associations, with a program that addresses the current situation in the financial industry and the interests of young financial professionals.
