Market Risk, FX Risk, IRR, Stress Testing & Liquidity Strategy in Emerging Markets

Market, FX and interest rate risk management built for emerging markets — dollarised systems, constrained liquidity and stress scenarios drawn from real events.

The programme

Emerging markets punish imported risk frameworks: currency volatility, constrained liquidity and macro-financial instability make textbook assumptions fail exactly when they are needed. This intensive masterclass equips banking professionals to manage market risk, FX risk, interest rate risk, liquidity and stress testing in these environments — including dollarised and semi-dollarised systems with limited access to long-term funding and growing regulatory scrutiny. Participants work through NII and EVE approaches to IRR, repricing gaps, duration analysis and behavioural assumptions, FX mismatch in dual-currency economies, and liquidity stress scenarios based on real market events. The through-line is alignment: ALCO governance, stronger risk culture across Finance, Risk and Treasury, and forward-looking balance-sheet strategy.

What you will do

Measure IRR with NII and EVE approaches, working through repricing gaps, duration analysis and behavioural assumptions.
Analyse FX mismatch risks in dual-currency economies and build mitigation suited to dollarised systems.
Design credible liquidity stress scenarios from real market events, and link stress testing to strategic decision-making.
Prepare for liquidity disruption with structured contingency planning, reading early warning indicators before the shock.
Trace how interest rate and FX shocks hit the capital structure and P&L, balancing profitability, liquidity and risk appetite.
Strengthen ALCO alignment and executive oversight, meeting emerging regulatory expectations for liquidity and market risk supervision.

Who attends

  • CROs, CFOs and executive directors
  • Heads of treasury and ALM, and senior market and liquidity risk managers
  • ALCO members and risk committee advisors
  • Finance strategy, regulatory reporting and funding teams
  • Supervisory and audit officers from central banks and DFIs

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.
