The Soltesz Institute Recognised as Best Payment & Banking Education Provider 2026

The Soltesz Institute has been named Best Payment & Banking Education Provider 2026 at the Business Excellence Awards 2026, a programme that recognises organisations driving measurable impact, innovation, and industry progress.

This recognition reflects a clear shift in how businesses approach payments and banking. What was once treated as a back-office function now defines growth, risk, and operational stability across global companies.

Viktoria Soltesz, Founder of The Soltesz Institute, commented:“We are proud to receive this recognition. This achievement belongs to our clients and our team, who trusted the vision and supported the work from day one. Every programme we deliver reflects real business challenges and this award confirms that the industry is ready for a structured and professional approach.”

Since its establishment, The Soltesz Institute has focused on one objective: building standards in an industry where no formal education previously existed. The institute delivers independent, EU and UAE certified education covering how money moves globally, how banks evaluate risk, and how businesses structure their payment and banking operations. The Institute has launched the first and only EU MBA in Payments and Banking specialisation globaly.

This recognition also reinforces the Institute’s broader mission: to create a transparent and ethical payment and banking industry where decisions are based on knowledge, and where businesses operate with full control over how money moves through their organisation.
