Insper was founded in São Paulo in 1987 as a branch of Ibmec (Brazilian Institute of Capital Markets, See Ibmec São Paulo), another Brazilian business school, which was itself initially founded in Rio de Janeiro in the mid-1980s.

At its foundation, Insper's flagship program was its MBA degree in finance.
