Overview

Global regulators are increasingly tying the amount of risk banks assume to the capital they must hold, leading financial institutions to adopt risk-based management practices. As banks, their products, regulations, and the global market grow more complex, effective risk management faces greater challenges. A key lesson from the banking crisis over the past five years is that risks are highly interconnected; thus, banks must understand these interactions to manage them efficiently.

Key features include:

• Explanations of current risk-based regulations
• A detailed review of the major risks banks face
• Industry best practices for adopting an enterprise-wide approach to integrating risk management
• Utilizing governance techniques to foster a group-wide culture where everyone actively participates in managing risks in alignment with the bank’s strategic objectives
• An exploration of future challenges risk managers may encounter

Throughout the five-day course, case studies will be extensively used to explore, examine, and reinforce the concepts and ideas presented. Historical events at banks will illustrate how risk management failures occurred and highlight actions that could have prevented losses.

Objectives

• Major risks within the financial industry and key international risk regulations
• Strategies for managing a bank’s assets and liabilities while maximizing returns
