Strengthening Risk Management Frameworks in Banks Masterclass

Risk frameworks rebuilt to the PRA’s stated priorities — capital and liquidity expectations, model risk, climate stress testing and operational resilience.

The programme

When the Prudential Regulation Authority writes to bank chief executives about governance, risk management and controls, the message is not advisory — it is the supervisory agenda. This masterclass rebuilds the risk framework against the PRA’s stated priorities: the 2024 capital and liquidity expectations, interest rate and FX risk under scrutiny, the model risk sitting inside risk assessment and capital planning models, and the newer fronts — emerging geopolitical, economic and technology risks, ESG integration, climate risk in stress testing and scenario analysis, and operational resilience with cybersecurity preparedness. The cohort returns to their organisation with actionable tools, templates and strategies rather than a summary of the letter.

What you will do

Align the risk framework with the PRA’s priorities, including its 2024 capital and liquidity expectations.
Manage interest rate risk and FX fluctuations, to the standard the supervisor expects.
Control model risk, across the financial models used in risk assessment and capital planning.
Integrate climate risk into stress testing and scenario analysis, measuring the potential impact on banking operations.
Track emerging geopolitical, economic and technology risks, and adapt risk strategy for future challenges and opportunities.
Put ESG integration to work, for long-term sustainability and risk mitigation.
Harden operational resilience and cybersecurity preparedness, returning with actionable tools, templates and strategies.

Who attends

  • Heads of risk, treasury and capital management
  • ALM, credit risk and forex teams

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