Integrated Stress-testing for Financial Institutions: Credit, Market, Operational & Liquidity Risks
Online training program

Date:  22nd - 25th May 2023

COURSE BACKGROUND

Stress-testing is essential to banks and regulators. It forms the backbone of a bank’s ICAAP (Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process), and answers a simple question: can a bank survive extreme but plausible scenarios which adversely impact its profitability, liquidity, and capital adequacy? However, stress-testing is complicated. It requires an integrated approach starting with how scenarios should be selected and calibrated, and how these scenarios ultimately translate into financial impact whilst respecting the various interrelationships between different types of risks.

This course has been designed for practitioners needing to understand how to implement and/or improve stress-testing frameworks in their banks. Since credit risk is central to the business models of most financial institutions, the course starts by taking a deep-dive into credit risk stress-testing by building an evolution of PDs (probabilities of default) based on stress-testing scenarios, and then translating scenario parameter values into financial impact using the staging rules of IFRS9. Stress-testing for market risk is explained by using numerical illustrations of how losses are determined for interest-rate risk in the banking book, FX exposures, equity portfolios, and bond investments. For operational risk stress-testing, the course shows how to capture high-frequency low impact events as well as low-frequency high impact events. Liquidity risk stress-testing is also explained, including how to embed the impact on bank survival of an inability to refinance funding liabilities when credit conditions deteriorate.

The course provides significant opportunity for discussion and questions, and is aided most importantly by clear illustrations and numerical examples which assist in learning several different methodologies and techniques that can be immediately applied in practice.

  • Key Highlights and Learning Outcomes:
    • Learn essential methodologies applied by banks for integrated stress testing
    • Understand techniques which translate stress testing scenarios into their resulting impact on bank earnings, liquidity, and capital adequacy
    • See in detail how stressed losses arise and how they are calculated for credit risk, interest rate risk in the banking book, FX exposures, equity portfolios, bond investments, and operational risk.

AGENDA

The program is highly interactive and will encourage participation through exercises and case studies that the delegates will solve individually or in small workgroups. These activities are designed to allow delegates to practice and to consolidate the concepts that will be discussed during the lectured sessions of the program. The program will focus on the practical realities of the market, rather than taking an excessively mathematical or academic approach.

He gained a PhD in microeconomics, and worked in the GCC for 15 years in retail and 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 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 derivatives products used by Gulf-regional corporations to hedge FX and interest rate 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 risk-based pricing of the bank’s Islamic financing products. Dr. Ken is currently an Assistant Professor of Finance in the UK.
