Course Overview ​
​
This Liquidity Risk Management course offers an in-depth examination of liquidity from multiple perspectives, highlighting its critical importance in financial stability and regulatory compliance, particularly under Basel III. Participants will explore the intricacies of liquidity across firm and systemic levels, including the definition and management of High Quality Liquid Assets (HQLA), understanding short-term funding, asset-liability mismatches, and the complexities of repo markets. ​
​
Through the analysis of case studies, the course addresses the challenges in securitised banking, the significance of stress testing, and strategies for managing liquidity risk. It covers essential topics such as funding and liquidity risk management, balance sheet and funds transfer pricing, and delves into the assessment of internal and macro liquidity risk indicators, alongside the impact of market micro-structure on liquidity.
