Course Description

What will this course be about? In today’s complex and ever-evolving financial landscape, the successful operation of banks and financial institutions relies on a delicate balance between profitability and risk mitigation. At the heart of this equilibrium lie two fundamental pillars: Risk Management and Asset Liability Management.

We will explore the significance of these crucial elements and their interplay in sustaining a stable, secure, and thriving financial institution. We'll understand how they act as the compass guiding the decisions, strategies, and overall health of banks in the midst of an unpredictable and dynamic environment. The content covered will be the following:


  1. Basic concepts in the realm of bank steering - i.e., understanding the fundamental concepts and the synergies between risk and asset liability management.

  2. Risk Management aspects - here we will dive deeper into the comprehensive aspects of risk management, including credit, market, and liquidity risks, and their significance in financial institutions

  3. Asset Liability Management and Funds Transfer Pricing - i.e., among other things, exploring the critical role of FTP in pricing funds internally and how it impacts a bank's profitability and risk management strategies.

great course to refresh the principle and practice of systemic risk management in banking sector. the case studies of financial crises are also very helpful for anyone to understand what was happening and the response of the policy makers. overall I can recommend to the course to anyone from those wanting to know, to experts in the banking systemic risk field

By Arun Kohli on 9/2/2025

This is an excellent course to build a strong foundation in risk management principles applicable to the traditional banking industry. The learnings from the lectures are reinforced by visiting a number of scenarios from the pre- and post-GFC era. My only recommendation is for additional quiz questions and assignments for learners to validate their understanding.

Some errors in the examples, i.e. in Section 6, the RWA was calcualted wrong. Speacer is very monotone and I think, all the time he only reads his complete script

By Soham Adla on 7/13/2025

Script is as if it is read out from a transcript, not creative or inviting to a beginner.
