Advanced Basel III Masterclass - Virtual Learning
This Basel III Masterclass equips banking and risk professionals to navigate today’s demanding capital and liquidity regulatory landscape with confidence. This training course blends regulatory depth with hands‑on implementation insights, ensuring participants can translate complex Basel rules into actionable strategies in their own institutions. Across five days, you will connect capital adequacy, leverage, liquidity, and risk-weighted asset (RWA) methodologies with real ICAAP/ILAAP, stress testing and supervisory review practices. The training course demystifies the Basel III “final reforms” (Basel III endgame), clarifying their impact on credit, market, operational and counterparty credit risk, as well as output floors and model constraints
Participants will work through realistic banking scenarios, examining trade-offs between RWA optimization, leverage constraints, and LCR/NSFR requirements to support sustainable business growth. You will explore how supervisors assess ICAAP and ILAAP, integrate stress testing into SREP, and translate qualitative expectations into quantitative capital and liquidity planning. The training course emphasizes peer discussion, practical tools, and implementation lessons learned from live Basel projects, enabling attendees to return with concrete ideas to strengthen their bank’s risk and capital framework
