ICAAP & ILAAP Masterclass: Capital & Liquidity Frameworks

A two-day working build of ICAAP and ILAAP frameworks under Basel II/III — templates, stress tests, funding plans and SREP-ready documentation for emerging-market institutions.

The programme

An ICAAP written for the filing cabinet fails at its one job: convincing the supervisor the bank understands its own risks. This two-day masterclass guides banks and financial institutions through practical implementation of the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process and the Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process — rooted in Basel II/III guidelines, tailored to emerging and developing markets, and delivered bilingually in English and French. Participants work hands-on with ready-to-use templates and real-world case studies covering risks beyond Pillar 1, internal stress testing, LCR, NSFR and survival horizons, contingency funding and supervisory engagement under SREP. Whether building a first framework or upgrading an existing one, the cohort leaves with a clear roadmap to embed ICAAP and ILAAP in enterprise-wide risk management and strategic planning.

What you will do

Stand up ICAAP and ILAAP frameworks under the Basel framework, with governance, oversight and execution roles defined.
Identify material risks beyond Pillar 1 — credit, market, operational, IRRBB and liquidity — and quantify capital requirements with simplified and internal models.
Run single-risk, combined and reverse stress tests, translating the results into capital and liquidity buffers.
Calculate and interpret LCR, NSFR and survival horizons, reading liquidity exposure from cash flow mismatches and funding gaps.
Design forward-looking, multi-year capital plans and a contingency funding plan aligned with business continuity.
Draft ICAAP and ILAAP documentation for board and regulators, ready for supervisory engagement under SREP and for audit.
Integrate the outcomes into business strategy and ALCO reporting, so the frameworks steer the institution rather than shadow it.

Who attends

  • Chief Risk Officers, Chief Financial Officers and board or ALCO committee members
  • Heads of risk, ALM and treasury
  • Basel compliance, regulatory reporting and capital planning teams
  • Internal auditors, risk controllers and advisory professionals working with banks
  • Senior management of development banks and microfinance institutions

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

Frequently asked

Is the masterclass suitable for a bank building its first ICAAP or ILAAP?

Yes. The programme serves institutions building a first framework and those upgrading an existing one. Participants work hands-on with ready-to-use templates and real-world case studies rooted in Basel II/III guidelines, and leave with a clear roadmap to embed ICAAP and ILAAP in enterprise-wide risk management and strategic planning. It is deliberately tailored to emerging and developing markets.

What does the programme cover on the liquidity side?

The ILAAP build works through liquidity exposure read from cash flow mismatches and funding gaps, the calculation and interpretation of LCR, NSFR and survival horizons, and the design of a contingency funding plan aligned with business continuity. Stress testing then translates single-risk, combined and reverse scenarios into the liquidity buffers the framework must justify to the supervisor.

How long is the masterclass, and in which languages is it delivered?

It is a two-day masterclass, delivered bilingually in English and French. Sessions run on a rolling calendar, with dates confirmed on request, and fees and quotations are shared on enquiry. The programme is also available in-house, tailored to your institution — often the right route when the ICAAP and ILAAP under construction are your own.

Who should attend the ICAAP & ILAAP masterclass?

Chief Risk Officers, Chief Financial Officers and board or ALCO committee members; heads of risk, ALM and treasury; and Basel compliance, regulatory reporting and capital planning teams. Internal auditors, risk controllers and advisory professionals working with banks also attend, as does the senior management of development banks and microfinance institutions — the frameworks apply well beyond large commercial banks.
