Risk Management MBA: ICAAP & ILAAP, Stress Testing, IRRBB, ALM & FTP, Market Liquidity and Basel Reform

The full prudential stack in one programme — ICAAP and ILAAP, IRRBB, liquidity risk, ALM and FTP, and the Basel reforms heading toward Basel IV.

The programme

Supervisors read ICAAP and ILAAP as one story; banks that build them in silos get found out. This exclusive masterclass brings insight from a recent prudential supervisor on the critical success factors banks should address in their capital and liquidity adequacy approach, then works outward through the full prudential stack. Case studies and simulations cover meeting Basel III requirements; the limitations of traditional liquidity measures like the quick and current ratios; a practical framework for assessing liquidity under stress; and ALM strategy and framework. The programme closes with the final revisions to Basel III — preparing the cohort for the adoption of Basel IV.

What you will do

Build an ICAAP and ILAAP a supervisor recognises, around the critical success factors prudential reviewers look for.
Implement a best-practice IRRBB regime in your bank, including reverse stress testing and low-rate and negative-rate challenges.
Stand up a liquidity risk management framework, with stress testing and a contingency funding plan.
Qualify capital under Basel III, from the role of regulatory bank capital to the Basel treatment of market risk.
Manage credit concentration risk and large exposures, with modelling and stress testing to match.
Price credit value adjustment (CVA) and collateral into the risk picture, where the reforms demand it.
Assess Basel III’s impact on the business model of banking, and prepare for Basel IV.

Who attends

  • Chief risk officers and heads of risk
  • Heads of treasury, liquidity risk, market risk and balance sheet management
  • Heads of finance, compliance and audit

  • Senior and executive management

Cohorts bring together board members, executives and the rising leaders behind them — kept deliberately small, so every seat is a peer’s.

Frequently asked

Is the Risk Management MBA an academic degree?

No — it is an exclusive masterclass, not a university degree. The "MBA" signals the breadth: the full prudential stack in one programme, covering ICAAP and ILAAP, stress testing, IRRBB, ALM and FTP, market liquidity and the Basel reforms heading toward Basel IV, taught through case studies and simulations.

What supervisory insight does the programme bring?

The masterclass brings insight from a recent prudential supervisor on the critical success factors banks should address in their capital and liquidity adequacy approach — because supervisors read ICAAP and ILAAP as one story, and banks that build them in silos get found out.

Who should attend this programme?

Chief risk officers and heads of risk, heads of treasury, liquidity risk, market risk and balance sheet management, heads of finance, compliance and audit, ICAAP managers, Basel III project managers and capital management teams, and senior and executive management.

In which languages and formats is it delivered?

BIZENIUS delivers the programme in English and French, with an in-house edition tailored to your bank’s prudential agenda. Sessions run on a rolling calendar with dates confirmed on request; fees and quotations are provided on enquiry.

Who teaches this

Practitioners, not presenters.

Led by practitioners who hold, or have held, the seats this programme prepares you for: group treasurers and heads of asset–liability management, chief risk officers, heads of credit and capital management, and former central-bank supervisors who examined the very frameworks they now teach. Between cohorts the same people advise banks on those frameworks, so what you learn is what is being defended in front of boards and regulators today.

What the bench brings

  • ALCO practice and treasury policy
  • Funds transfer pricing design and restructuring
  • IRRBB measurement: EVE and NII sensitivity
  • Liquidity risk: LCR, NSFR and contingency funding
  • Basel capital frameworks from Pillar 1 to Pillar 3
  • ICAAP and ILAAP construction and supervisory review

Where they have practised

Current and former practitioners — people who hold the seat today alongside those who have held it.

Sectors: Banking & financial services · Professional services · Insurance · Central banking & supervision

Regions: Africa · the Middle East · Europe · Asia · the Americas

How they teach

  • Live case studies from real institutions
  • Modelling labs and balance-sheet simulations
  • Regulator-style challenge sessions
  • Group problem-solving on realistic institutional cases
  • Knowledge checks and a personal action plan

Cohorts are kept small so every exercise is worked on the participants’ own situations — in person or live virtual.
