IFRS S2 is now effective and the Basel Committee’s ESG principles are gaining supervisory traction — yet in most banks, climate risk still lives in a sustainability report rather than in ICAAP, ILAAP, ALM and credit processes where it belongs. This masterclass, built for financial institutions in Uganda and comparable emerging markets, gives practical guidance on making the integration real: ESG governance structures, materiality assessment including double materiality, scenario analysis, climate-related target-setting and financed-emissions reporting. Beyond compliance, it builds the internal capacity to produce credible disclosures that satisfy supervisors and strengthen investor trust. The cohort leaves with tools and implementation roadmaps to lead ESG integration across the organisation.

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.
