Description:

Basel III is a global regulatory standard governing bank capital adequacy, stress testing and market liquidity risk. Initially agreed upon by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in 2010–11, amendments to The Accord have extended implementation until 31 March 2019. Basel III strengthens bank capital requirements by increasing liquidity buffers and reducing leverage.
Unlike Basel I and II, Basel III mandates different reserve levels for various deposit types and borrowing arrangements; rather than replacing its predecessors, it operates alongside them.
Navigating this complex and ever-evolving landscape can be challenging. Our course and training programme are designed to help you manage anticipated changes and their impact on your institution.
