The technical grounding to read insurers properly — product mechanics, financial statements across accounting standards, and the key ratios that measure financial strength.

The programme

Insurance company accounts conceal as much as they reveal — and the same insurer can look materially different under different accounting standards. This masterclass provides the technical background to insurance products, financial statements and analysis. Participants work through the key components of the main product lines, how an insurer’s financial statements are constructed and why the presentation varies with the accounting standard applied, and the key ratios that measure financial strength. The cohort finishes able to trace product economics through to the balance sheet and income statement and to compare insurers across regimes without being misled.

Who attends

  • Equity, fixed income and credit analysts
  • Treasury, risk management and ALM professionals
  • Insurance brokers, investment managers and commercial and investment bankers
  • Supervisors, lawyers and corporate communications officers

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.
