What you will learn

  • Explain and compare Value-at-Risk (VaR) methodologies in English, including historical simulation, variance–covariance, and Monte Carlo approaches.
  • Calculate and interpret tail risk measures in English, such as VaR and Expected Shortfall, while understanding their strengths and limitations.
  • Apply stress testing techniques in English (historical, hypothetical, and reverse stress testing) to assess portfolio resilience under extreme conditions.
  • Evaluate and backtest risk models in English using the Kupiec test, Christoffersen test, and other exam-relevant approaches.
  • Integrate VaR with stress testing in English to form a comprehensive risk management toolkit aligned with regulatory expectations.

Course Description

AI Disclosure: This course was developed using AI-assisted tools.

Master the full lifecycle of Credit Risk Modelling — from raw data to regulatory-compliant Expected Credit Loss (ECL) estimates.

This comprehensive 10-hour masterclass takes you through the complete IFRS 9 and Basel 3.1 modelling process in SAS, covering Probability of Default (PD), Loss Given Default (LGD), Exposure at Default (EAD), and Expected Credit Loss (ECL) computation.

You will learn how banks design, calibrate, validate, and deploy credit risk models, with step-by-step SAS examples, reusable macros, and ready-to-customize templates for both retail and wholesale portfolios.

What You Will Learn

  • End-to-End Credit Risk Modelling Framework under IFRS 9

  • Point-in-Time (PIT) and Through-the-Cycle (TTC) PD Model Development

  • LGD Modelling using Regression and Segment-Level Approaches

  • EAD and Credit Conversion Factor (CCF) Estimation Techniques

  • ECL Computation and Scenario-Based Forecasting

  • Staging Logic (Stage 1, 2, 3) and Lifetime PD Derivation

  • Model Validation – KS, Gini, ROC, Brier Score, PSI, and Hosmer-Lemeshow Test

  • SAS Macro Automation for Data Preparation, WOE, and Model Execution

  • Basel 3.1 and IFRS 9 Integration with Capital Planning Concepts

  • Professional Reporting via ODS EXCEL and ODS PDF Outputs

Why This Course?

Banks and regulators are demanding transparent, data-driven, and auditable credit risk models.
This masterclass equips you with real-world, job-ready modelling skills that go beyond theory.

By the end of the course, you will be able to:

  • Build and validate regulatory-grade PD, LGD, EAD, and ECL models in SAS.

  • Automate data quality, variable selection, and model reporting.

  • Implement IFRS 9 staging and macroeconomic overlays.

  • Understand how these models feed into Basel capital requirements and IFRS 9 provisioning.

Tools and Techniques

  • SAS Base and Enterprise Guide

  • PROC LOGISTIC, PROC REG, PROC MODEL, PROC HPLOGISTIC

  • Weight of Evidence (WOE) and Information Value (IV) transformations

  • Macro automation and data quality controls

  • ODS EXCEL/PDF reporting for model documentation

  • Macroeconomic scenario tagging and model validation dashboards

Who This Course Is For

  • Credit Risk Analysts, Modellers, and Quantitative Risk Professionals

  • IFRS 9 and Basel 3.1 Implementation Teams

  • Financial Analysts and Data Scientists working with SAS

  • Banking Professionals preparing for FRM, CFA, or Actuarial exams

  • Anyone seeking to advance into Credit Risk Modelling and ECL Analytics

What’s Included

  • Over 10 hours of detailed video lectures

  • SAS code templates and macro libraries

  • Excel dashboards for model monitoring

  • IFRS 9 staging, validation, and ECL calculator tools

  • Lifetime access and certificate of completion

I need more and more practicle exercised that are customized to Financial Institutions

By kaushlendra gaur on 6/1/2026

Need more detailed input on each topic.

By Rafael Urdaneta on 2/28/2026

Lecture 4 displays the wrong slides, and the voice description of the section is incorrect. It shows the Historical Simulation Approach, and then this same material is repeated in Lecture 5

By Jihan Rana Ayunda Dewana on 12/28/2025

This course really help for us to know End-to-End Credit Risk Models. It's very detail and easy to catch up every step

By Somanshu Mehta on 12/19/2025

Very good course with SAS code.

By Aryan on 12/4/2025

Content is half baked, and sometimes just an overview. for example, in vintage analysis it should be in depth as it usually asked in interview but it not enough.

By Muchaneta Njaji on 11/2/2025

An outstanding and practical Credit Masterclass! This course breaks down IFRS 9 Expected Credit Loss (ECL) modelling step by step — from data preparation to PD, LGD, and EAD estimation, all the way to lifetime ECL computation. The instructor explains every concept clearly and connects the theory directly to real SAS, and Excel implementations. The examples, templates, and reporting dashboards make it easy to apply these techniques in real-world banking environments. Highly recommended for anyone in credit risk, finance, or data analytics who wants to master IFRS 9 modelling and ECL reporting.

I’m still going through the course, but so far it’s been a great learning experience. The explanations are clear, and the instructor does a good job breaking down complex credit risk modeling concepts.

By mukundi huchu on 10/26/2025

Best credit risk course I’ve taken. Clear IFRS 9 + Basel 3.1 coverage, hands-on PD/LGD/EAD builds, and practical SAS/Python walkthroughs. Immediate ROI

By Timothy King on 10/26/2025

Exceptionally structured and genuinely practical. The instructor demystifies PIT vs. Lifetime PD, ECL, staging, and validation with production-ready SAS/SQL/Python. If you work in credit risk, this is a must.
