CeFPro invites you to this highly engaging and interactive one-day workshop to advance understanding of the core components of managing a bank’s balance sheet.
Registration begins at 9:00 AM and the program concludes at 5:00 PM. The agenda includes allocated time for refreshment breaks, networking opportunities, and lunch.

Workshop Overview:
This one-day intensive workshop is designed to put you behind the wheel as the management board in charge of a bank’s entire balance sheet. As the board, you will be faced with several different scenarios that mirror real challenges faced by balance sheet managers.
The market has high expectations for both the height and stability of your earnings – expectations that you will need to meet. At the same time, you must abide by regulatory and business constraints.
Objectives:
• Learn how to think about a bank’s balance sheet holistically.
• Understand the dynamic interplay between different components of a bank’s balance sheet.
• Learn how to optimize a balance sheet under different constraints.
Workshop Topics:
• Key bank balance sheet ratios (e.g., tier 1 capital, liquidity coverage ratio, among others.)
• Regulatory regimes (e.g., Basel IV)
• Asset Liability Management
• Pricing simulation and strategies
