A recovery plan written for the file drawer fails at the exact moment it exists for. Post-crisis reform requires every bank to hold clear, tested strategies for restoring capital and liquidity through severe scenarios — complementing ring-fencing and higher capital and liquidity requirements in lowering the probability of failure and contagion. This masterclass works through the central bank’s minimum requirements for bank recovery plans: the key issues, tools and techniques of building and managing one, and the real-life challenges institutions face in the RRP process. Case studies, past crisis examples and exercises carry the cohort from trigger frameworks and stress scenarios to recovery options and plan assessment.

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.

A recovery plan is not a document. It is an argument the board must win under stress.
