IFRS does not stand still, and finance teams that certified their knowledge years ago are quietly out of date. This refresher masterclass is anchored on IFRS 9 — classification and measurement, hedge accounting and expected credit loss treatment under stressed conditions — then sweeps the more prevalent standards across the framework, including the latest developments from 2023 onward. Sessions open with IAS 1 presentation of financial statements and the standards touching non-current assets, then move through income taxes, provisions, IFRS 13 fair value measurement, business combinations and the consolidation suite. The cohort works through PD, LGD and EAD modelling and how ECL insight sharpens credit-risk decisions.

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.
