About The Seminar

With some years of loss data collection now achieved, directors and regulators are expecting more and better use of it. CROs and Operational Risk managers need to upgrade the information and recommendations about risk strategies and about how to allocate resources for best control. OR units need to develop quantitative methods to demonstrate the reports and recommendations are based on fact and data, both from internal loss events and also from data outside the firm and combining it with expert opinion.

Regulators increasingly emphasise that banks should improve knowledge of how they could suffer major losses, and know how best to limit them. Use of quantitative techniques and data has to be greatly increased.

In this course, techniques for improving the quantitative assessment of risks, and especially the potential for the most significant losses, will be presented with worked examples and short practice exercises.

KEY LEARNING OUTCOMES

  • Recognize additional quantitative techniques for risk estimation
  • Gain confidence is using techniques in estimation
  • Improve data for qualitative and quantitative methods
  • Enhance the value to directors of the risk assessments and reporting
  • Handle data breaks and inconsistencies
  • Handle Interrelationships between risks
  • Implement growing regulatory requirements and expectations of risk assessment
  • Develop techniques for assessing major risks for scenario analysis and stress testing
  • Improve Risk Identification and root cause analysis
  • Assess control effectiveness
  • Improve risk aggregation for Capital Adequacy assessments (Basel requirements)
  • Formulate risk reporting through good KRIs and report formats

Central bank proposes lighter Sukuk rules, temporary incentives to build Philippine market

Read our full daily cover story here: https://www.islamicfinancenews.com/central-bank-proposes-lighter-sukuk-rules-temporary-incentives-to-build-philippine-market.html

LATEST POSTS

September has got off to a strong start for dollar September has got off to a strong start for dollar-denominated Sukuk, with issuance in the first week already matching the combined total raised in July and August.

Four benchmark Sukuk have been printed so far this month: the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB)’s US$1.5 billion offering, its second in 2026; Arab National Bank’s US$750 million Additional Tier 1 Sukuk; Kuwait International Bank’s (KIB) unsecured US$500 million paper; and the Saudi government’s US$3.25 billion Sukuk. The dollar pipeline is looking promising with alrajhi bank preparing to tap the market with a Tier 2 social Sukuk.

The Saudi government issuance is notable given that Fitch Ratings had said in July that it was not anticipating any new public external US dollar sovereign Sukuk in the second half of 2026, after Saudi Arabia concluded its funding plan. Malaysia’s US$1.5 billion return to the dollar Sukuk market in July was similarly notable, coming after a five-year hiatus.
