Opleiding: Bank Asset-Liability Management: A 3-day guide through the key areas of bank ALM
Basel III and Basel 3.1 implementation is now nearing its final stages and banks need to adopt an integrated, optimized approach to balance sheet management in order to satisfy the sometimes competing demands of the regulator, the customer and the shareholder, and to preserve shareholder value efficiency. Efficient and effective asset-liability management (ALM) practice is the primary part of this process.
This 3-day workshop guides participants through the key areas of bank ALM: integrated ALM origination framework, capital management, liquidity risk, Funds Transfer Pricing (FTP) and interest rate risk in the banking book (IRRBB). It addresses both the challenge of implementing an efficient regulatory submissions process (ICAAP and ILAAP), to ensure that a bank is able to implement best-practice processes, and the “3-dimensional” optimization problem of meeting the requirements of all stakeholders.
Material from the instructor’s books The Moorad Choudhry Anthology and The Principles of Banking is used in the workshop. Case studies and group exercises are used throughout the course to reinforce learning.
