Asset & Liability Management (ALM) with Capital Planning and Stress Testing Masterclass

Hands-on ALM with capital planning and stress testing — Excel workshops, best-practice risk reports and a pandemic stress simulation to optimise a real balance sheet.

Format

Classroom · Live Virtual

The programme

Every risk measurement tool has practical disadvantages, and the ALM function that cannot name them will misuse them. This masterclass takes bank risk managers, auditors and regulators through the issues and challenges of asset-liability management with an insistently practical bias: samples of best-practice risk reports, Excel workshops on rate-risk measurement and liquidity stress testing, and one sample bank used throughout so that measurement, reporting and hedging examples compare cleanly. The cohort works through balance-sheet dynamics, liquidity governance and forecasting, Value at Risk and cash-flow techniques, regulatory capital rules, and interest-rate stress testing — finishing with a pandemic stress-testing simulation in which participants optimise the bank’s ALM position. Basic knowledge of risk management and statistics is assumed.

What you will do

Map the dynamics of your balance sheet, identifying the key risk factors acting on it and how to minimise them.
Measure and hedge interest-rate and liquidity exposures, with the practical trade-offs of each tool made explicit.
Run liquidity governance, forecasting and stress testing to the standard supervisors expect.
Apply cash-flow management and Value at Risk techniques across all forms of financial exposure.
Benchmark your current ALM practice and build an action plan to bring it to the highest standard.
Optimise a bank’s ALM position under a pandemic stress simulation, applying the full toolkit on the final day.

Who attends

  • Chief Risk Officers and heads of liquidity, market risk and treasury
  • Heads of finance, compliance and audit
  • ICAAP and ILAAP programme directors and project managers
  • Basel III project managers and capital management teams
  • Regulators and senior executive management

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.
