Strengthening Risk and Treasury Management for Banks under Basel III Masterclass

Basel III capital, liquidity and treasury discipline for Azerbaijani banks — buffers, LCR/NSFR, stress testing and FTP against an oil-exposed economy.

Format

Classroom · Live Virtual

The programme

Basel III compliance in Azerbaijan is not a box-ticking exercise: banks must strengthen capital adequacy, liquidity risk management and leverage ratios against an economy exposed to oil price swings and currency pressure. Falling short invites regulatory penalties; getting it right builds resilience to the next financial crisis. This masterclass gives Azerbaijani banks practical guidance on aligning with Basel III principles — capital buffers and RWA, LCR and NSFR mechanics, stress testing for oil-dependent economies — and on running treasury and Funds Transfer Pricing so that risk and return line up. The cohort works through the regulatory requirements and the strategic tools that reach beyond them.

What you will do

Align capital adequacy, liquidity and leverage ratios with Basel III, strengthening buffers and risk-weighted assets.
Master LCR and NSFR requirements and manage liquidity through volatile markets.
Run stress tests for economic shocks, calibrated to oil-dependent economies.
Price funds internally through FTP so risk aligns with returns across the balance sheet.
Manage credit, market and operational risk with tools that hold under supervisory scrutiny.
Improve treasury management strategies for cash flow, liquidity and balance-sheet resilience.
Make informed decisions under financial stress, aligned with the Central Bank’s evolving regulations.

Who attends

  • Heads of treasury, risk and capital management
  • ALM, ALCO and credit risk professionals
  • Forex teams, dealers, corporate treasurers and cash managers
  • Finance professionals, financial controllers and accountants
  • Bank supervisors, business heads, investment managers and auditors

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.
