Supervisory escalation rarely arrives unannounced — regulators watch defined triggers, and banks that cannot see the same signals are negotiating blind. This masterclass shows how Azerbaijani regulators assess bank risk, determine capital add-ons and monitor governance practices. It works through the Central Bank of Azerbaijan’s ARAS framework and supervisory priorities, structuring ICAAP and ILAAP to local expectations and international best practice, and preparing for SREP-like evaluations, inspection findings and Pillar 2 capital requirements. The cohort designs internal early-warning indicators aligned with those regulators use, integrates stress testing and risk appetite into forward-looking capital and liquidity planning, and applies it all through simulations and case studies tailored to Azerbaijani banking operations.

Frequently asked
Will these programmes prepare our team for supervisory review?
That is what they are built for. Casework is structured around the evidence supervisors request — risk-appetite articulation, documentation, attestation — and participants leave able to assemble the evidence trail before it is asked for and defend the framework in examination. Faculty include practitioners who have sat on the supervisor’s side of the table.
Which risk frameworks does the curriculum cover?
The risk and compliance curriculum spans enterprise risk management on the COSO framework, credit, market, liquidity and operational risk, IFRS 9 provisioning, stress testing, and financial-crime disciplines including fraud detection and AML/CFT. Each programme page states the frames it works in and what participants will build with them.
Can we attend in French?
Yes. BIZENIUS delivers in English and French, in classroom, live virtual and hybrid formats. French-language cohorts serve institutions across BCEAO jurisdictions and other francophone markets.
What happens after we enquire about a programme?
A senior practitioner replies within one business day with the brochure attached. The conversation then covers dates, format, any tailoring your institution needs, and the fee — BIZENIUS shares fees in that proposal, not on a public price list.

Capital frameworks built to run the bank, not to satisfy a filing
Most frameworks are written to satisfy the regulator. We build the kind that run the bank.
