Basel III for Financial Institutions: Latest Reforms & Updates
A Two-Part, Online Course

Date:  24th & 25th February 2021

Course Introduction

Basel III was first introduced over a decade ago as an attempt to remedy serious shortcomings of Basel II highlighted by the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-8. In particular, Basel II led to insufficient capitalization of banks, insufficient bank liquidity, and furthermore, did not provide a meaningful macroprudential framework to deal with systemic risk, that being whole-system failure.

Since its first release in 2009, there have been several extremely important updates which practitioners need to be aware of. These include, for example, the market risk amendment released in 2016, which changed the way both market risk and credit risk capital charges are calculated for traded securities. Additionally, there are important changes to the standardized approach for credit risk, which impacts capital charges for banking book positions, an entire replacement of prior methods used for operational risk, and IFRS9 has replaced IAS39, with important consequences for credit risk provisions.

This highly interactive course offers a valuable and timely opportunity for banking practitioners to update their knowledge of Basel regulations. The course will provide an in-depth understanding of amendments to Basel III since its introduction, as well as giving a thorough overview of Basel III in its entirety to ensure delegates who are less familiar with banking regulations are able to significantly advance their awareness.

  • Key Highlights
    • Gain a thorough overview of Basel III across all types of risks
    • Learn about and understand important updates and reforms to Basel III since it was first introduced
    • Appreciate other relevant changes which impact capital charges

EXPERT COURSE DIRECTOR


Dr Ken Baldwin 
Former Director, Financial Policies & Planning, Islamic Development Bank

Dr. Ken Baldwin has worked as a practitioner in banking and finance for over 25 years in senior positions spanning the front and middle offices. Having graduated from Oxford University with a first-class honors degree in Physics in 1989, he qualified as a Chartered Accountant with PWC, before joining UBS, and then later Credit Suisse, in derivatives risk and control functions based in London.

He gained a PhD in the microeconomic theory of risk sharing in Islamic contracts, and worked in the GCC for 15 years in Islamic retail and Islamic investment banks. Whilst at Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank, Dr. Ken built an ALM analytic technology platform capable of capturing liquidity and interest rate risks inherent in the many varied Islamic financing products used at retail and corporate levels. He then moved to take up the position of MENA Regional Head of Quantitative Analysis for Citigroup. At Citicorp, Dr. Ken worked on structuring complex products used by Gulf-regional corporations to hedge FX and interest risks. Still residing in Bahrain, Dr. Ken then joined Investcorp, where he worked on the risk due diligence of corporate private equity and real estate private equity transactions and portfolio management. After leaving Investcorp, he set up the risk management department for venture capital bank, providing Basel III compliance and deal analysis for the bank. He then operationalized a new Islamic investment bank as its Chief Operating Officer for 3 years, before his most recent industry role at the Islamic Development Bank, where he set up and ran a new department tasked with developing Financial Policies and Planning underpinned by robust financial analytic tools and methodologies designed specifically for the IDB. Dr. Ken is currently a senior university lecturer in finance in the UK. He has published quantitative finance articles in peer-reviewed academic journals including the Journal of Risk, and during his earlier career, taught CFA and FRM professional certifications as a pastime for the Bahrain Institute of Banking and Finance.
