Overview

Regulators worldwide are increasingly tying the level of risk a bank assumes to the amount of capital it must hold, while financial institutions are adopting risk-centric management practices. As banks, their products, regulatory frameworks, and global markets grow more intricate, effective risk management faces escalating challenges. A critical lesson from the banking crisis of the past five years is that risks are deeply interconnected; to manage them efficiently, banks must comprehend these interdependencies.

Key features include:

• an explanation of current risk-based regulations
• a detailed review of the major risks confronting banks
• industry best practices for implementing an enterprise-wide approach to integrating risk management
• the application of governance techniques to foster a group-wide culture that ensures active participation in risk management aligned with the bank’s strategic objectives
• an exploration of the challenges risk managers may encounter in the future.

The course utilises extensive case studies designed to explore, examine, and reinforce the concepts and ideas covered over the five days. Historical events at banks are employed throughout to highlight failures in risk management and the actions that could have prevented losses.
