Debt Restructuring Masterclass

Early problem-loan workout as applied craft — restructuring techniques from international finance, worked through case studies where one size never fits all.

Format

Classroom · Live Virtual

The programme

In debt restructuring there are no one-size-fits-all answers — the financier must be open-minded, flexible and quick to react as circumstances change. This masterclass builds an applied approach to early problem-loan workout using the range of techniques currently applied in international finance. Through case studies, financing scenarios and workshop exercises, the cohort develops a broad working command of the methods that assist recovery of financial exposure — and the judgement to know which one fits the situation in front of them.

What you will do

Spot problem loans early and choose a workout route before value drains away.
Apply a range of restructuring techniques currently used in international finance.
Test potential workouts against financing scenarios, using case studies drawn from practice.
Structure recoveries of financial exposure where standard solutions do not fit.
React with flexibility as circumstances change, keeping recovery options open throughout the workout.

Who attends

  • Bank credit officers and investment bankers
  • Bond credit analysts and fixed income/credit traders and sales
  • Fund managers and treasurers
  • Management consultants, compliance officers and corporate financial decision-makers

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.
