Plenty of professionals can recite the principles of Islamic finance; far fewer can navigate its practical realities under live conditions. This two-day masterclass, built for mid-to-senior management, practitioners and professionals with interests in Islamic finance, covers the field in both its theoretical and practical dimensions — deliberately issue-driven, thematic and current rather than product-by-product. For those already working in the industry, sessions fast-track the practical understanding that otherwise takes years to absorb on the job. The cohort works across the areas that matter for retail, corporate and investment banking alike, from client-facing roles through to risk, support and administration.

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.
