The Basel Accords were created by the G10 to provide a framework for the banking and financial system. The latest Basel III reform aims to adapt banking regulation following the 2008 crisis. Implementing the latest Basel II and Basel III guidelines is essential for all banks to comply with international standards and regulations.
This concise 4-day course will enable you to understand and master the main aspects of ongoing Basel reforms and improve risk management. It also explains the impact of this new prudential framework on the activities of banks in the West African Monetary Union (WAMU/UMOA).
