Market and Liquidity Risk Management for Insurers Masterclass

Market and liquidity risk as insurers actually face them — ALM, lapse risk, stress testing and the demands of Solvency II, IAIS ICPs and IFRS 17.

The programme

Insurers carry market and liquidity risks that bank-style frameworks miss: lapse risk, early redemption, and duration mismatch between long liabilities and the assets backing them. This masterclass covers the identification, measurement, monitoring and mitigation of market and liquidity risk as they actually present in insurance portfolios — asset-liability matching, interest rate risk, stress testing and liquidity planning for shocks and cash-flow mismatch — within the regulatory frame of Solvency II, IAIS Insurance Core Principles and the risk-measurement implications of IFRS 17. Working from real insurance-sector examples, the cohort leaves with methods and frameworks that can be applied immediately.

What you will do

Identify, measure and monitor market and liquidity risk as they present in insurance portfolios specifically.
Match assets to liabilities, managing interest rate risk and duration mismatches.
Plan for liquidity shocks — lapse risk, early redemption and cash-flow mismatch.
Design stress-testing frameworks aligned with internal and supervisory expectations.
Align risk measurement with Solvency II, IAIS ICPs and IFRS 17 as regulation continues to move.
Apply the tools immediately, working from real insurance-sector case studies.

  • Heads of risk, treasury and ALM in insurance companies

Frequently asked

Who should attend this market and liquidity risk masterclass?

It is designed for heads of risk, treasury and ALM in insurance companies, actuaries, internal auditors and finance professionals, compliance officers and regulatory reporting teams, insurance supervisors, and ALCO professionals, financial controllers and corporate treasurers.

How does this differ from bank-style market risk training?

The masterclass addresses risks that bank-style frameworks miss: lapse risk, early redemption, and duration mismatch between long liabilities and the assets backing them. Measurement and mitigation are framed by Solvency II, the IAIS Insurance Core Principles and the risk-measurement implications of IFRS 17 — treated as professional training, not regulatory advice — and worked through real insurance-sector examples.

Is the programme available in-house and in French?

Yes. BIZENIUS delivers in English and French, and an in-house edition can be tailored to your portfolios, ALM framework and supervisory context. Sessions run on a rolling calendar with dates confirmed on request; fees and quotations are provided on enquiry.
