Description
As banks strive for value creation in a highly competitive environment they inevitably create risks. The greatest threat to a financial institution is when such risks are not properly identified, measured or managed.
The regulatory response to recent events is contained in Basel III which sets out to make capital requirements more risk-sensitive, enhance risk coverage and strengthen the loss absorbency of available capital. Basel III further introduces new liquidity management standards.
Notwithstanding Basel III, banks continue to focus their risk management programmes, among other things, on finding an expression of their true economic exposure to risk in the form of economic capital.
This course examines the latest tools, techniques and best practices surrounding economic capital calculation and management and how to structure an Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) that maximizes its inherent motivational incentives. It considers the Basel accords, with particular focus on Basel III, and examines the composition and interrelationship between the various types of capital - available (book), regulatory and economic - and explores frameworks for their effective management.
