Mission & Vision

The SFAS Foundation aims to enable talented young individuals to pursue professional education and training both domestically and abroad, with a particular focus on promoting exchange and collaboration at the international level as well as fostering international understanding. Through scholarships in specialized fields, it seeks to provide future specialists and leaders with a solid foundation for their professional careers.

Target groups

Talented young people and students who wish to further their education in the fields of auditing, business and tax law, as well as journalism, are supported. Furthermore, the foundation is aimed at domestic and international scholarship holders who seek to contribute to international understanding and cooperation through professional stays and networking. Due to limited funds, the focus is on the first two subject areas.
