Bank Capital Adequacy Under Basel III
Basel III is a global regulatory standard on bank capital adequacy, It is an international regulatory accord that introduced a set of reforms designed to improve the regulation, supervision and risk management within the banking sector. This training course provides a comprehensive overview of not only what the past, present and likely future rules are, and how they apply to different institutions, but also what their underlying purpose is, why they have evolved in the way they have, and how banks can adopt optimal strategies to maximise their profits and minimise risk whilst at the same time staying fully compliant with the spirit and the letter of the rules.
The overall goal of this Five-day course is to provide participants with a general overview of current financial regulation under the Basel Accords.
