Advanced Capital and Liquidity Adequacy (Basel IV, CRD IV & CRR) Masterclass

How the Basel rules land in CRD IV and CRR — capital ratios, credit RWA, LCR, NSFR and liquidity stress testing for banks that must hold the line.

The programme

The Basel rules only bite once they are transposed into the Capital Requirements Directives and Regulations — and since the Great Financial Crisis and the Eurozone crisis exposed the old framework, they have been revised substantially. Anyone connected to the financial sector needs to know which areas of regulation are changing, in which direction, and with what force. This masterclass applies the Basel capital adequacy rules to specific banks: the three approaches to credit RWA calculation, the Basel IV internal ratings-based approach, and specific exposures from derivatives and contingent exposures to securitisation and covered bonds. The cohort works through managing liquidity through a crisis — LCR, NSFR and ILAAP compliance, scenario design and liquidity stress testing — and the effect of capital ratios on the balance sheet and revenues.

What you will do

Apply the Basel capital adequacy rules to a specific bank, not just recite them in the abstract.
Track which areas of regulation are changing and how hard each lands, from Basel III liquidity monitoring tools to the Basel IV internal ratings-based approach.
Calculate credit RWA under the three recognised approaches, including derivatives, contingent exposures, securitisation and covered bonds.
Design and run liquidity stress scenarios, and manage the metrics that fall out of them.
Maintain compliance with LCR, NSFR and ILAAP requirements without letting them dictate the balance sheet.
Quantify the effect of capital ratios on the balance sheet and revenues, and manage liquidity through a crisis.

Who attends

  • Heads of risk, capital management and treasury
  • Credit risk, Basel and ALM teams
  • Heads of internal audit and compliance
  • Basel IV project managers
  • C-suite members — CFO, COO, CRO and Chief Internal Auditor

Cohorts bring together board members, executives and the rising leaders behind them — kept deliberately small, so every seat is a peer’s.

Frequently asked

Do these programmes cover the Basel III final reforms and the ICAAP/ILAAP cycle?

Yes. The BIZENIUS banking curriculum is built around the Basel III endgame, ICAAP, ILAAP, IRRBB, IFRS 9 provisioning, stress testing and BCBS 239. Participants leave able to quantify the output floor on their own portfolios, write capital and liquidity documents that withstand supervisory review, and defend the numbers to their board.

Are the programmes adapted to regional supervisors such as SAMA, CBUAE or BCEAO?

Casework is built around supervisory documents rather than textbook theory, and faculty include former practitioners who have sat on both sides of an examination. Programmes address the questions SAMA, CBUAE, BCEAO and other home regulators actually put to the desk, and an in-house edition can be tailored to a single jurisdiction.

How do I secure a seat on a banking programme?

Apply for a seat or request the brochure from the programme page. A senior practitioner — not a sales team — responds within one business day, and the brochure arrives with that reply. BIZENIUS runs on enquiry: there is no online checkout.

Can a programme run in-house for our bank?

Every BIZENIUS programme can be delivered in-house, tailored to your balance sheet, your regulator and your data, in English or French. Many institutions start with an open cohort, then commission a private edition for the wider team.
