Islamic Treasury & Liquidity Management
Islamic banks face every liquidity risk conventional banks face — with a fraction of the instruments and none of the excuses.

Liquidity is where Islamic banking’s constraints bite hardest: no conventional interbank deposits, thin secondary markets, a short menu of eligible high-quality assets. This programme trains the desk that lives with those constraints — the instrument set as it actually trades: commodity murabaha and wakala placements, sukuk held for liquidity, central bank facilities where they exist; asset-liability management without conventional derivatives — profit-rate risk measured and managed through structure rather than swaps; the LCR and NSFR met with Sharia-compliant components; and the contingency plan for the day the constraint becomes the crisis. Aligned to IFSB guidance throughout.
What you will do

Frequently asked
Which liquidity instruments does the course cover?
The instrument set as it actually trades: commodity murabaha and wakala placements, sukuk held for liquidity — eligibility, market depth and haircuts — and central bank facilities where they exist, including the lender-of-last-resort question. The constraint of thin secondary markets runs through the whole programme.
How can an Islamic bank manage rate risk without swaps?
The programme manages profit-rate risk through structure rather than derivatives: measurement, structural balance-sheet management, behavioural assumptions for profit-sharing deposits and the honest handling of displaced commercial risk on investment accounts. IFSB guidance is applied throughout.
Does it cover LCR and NSFR for Islamic banks?
Yes — the LCR and NSFR met with Sharia-compliant components under IFSB guidance, stress testing of the constrained balance sheet and the contingency funding plan for the day the constraint becomes the crisis. This is professional training, not a sharia-compliance ruling on specific instruments.
Can conventional treasurers attend?
Yes — the audience explicitly includes conventional treasurers moving across, alongside treasury and ALM staff of Islamic banks and windows, liquidity risk managers and central bank supervisors. BIZENIUS delivers in English and French, in-house editions are available, sessions run on a rolling calendar and fees are quoted on enquiry.
