Course overview:

This one-day interactive workshop will raise awareness and understanding of recommended good-practice principles for bank ALCO governance and procedure. Aimed at ALCO members, non-executive directors and senior managers in any banking institution, as well as all staff involved in the ALCO process, the course presents essential tools required to inculcate the right governance culture in a bank. This includes a range of policy templates that can be applied in any bank, together with real-world examples and case studies to demonstrate techniques.

Delegates will gain a clearer understanding of how to formulate and drive the ALCO governance process in the most effective way, and what makes an effective ALCO MI pack, plus a toolkit of best-practice ALCO templates.

Learning outcomes:

  • Understand the proper role of the asset-liability committee in Bank governance and risk management
  • Learn how to implement a genuinely effective and robust ALCO process
  • Become familiar with ALCO (Asset-Liability Committee) organisation and operating framework
  • Understand the ALCO as part of the balance sheet risk triumvirate
  • Ensure the suite of ALCO balance sheet risk MI is fit-for-purpose
  • Draft, as part of a group exercise, the ALCO Agenda and MI Pack
