Masterclass: Asset-Liability Committee (ALCO) - Governance Framework

Masterclass overview:

The asset-liability committee (ALCO) is the primary balance sheet risk forum in a bank, and its importance was recognised by the Regulatory Authorities in an FSA “Dear CEO” letter issued in January 2011 and by the PRA in LSS1/13 published in 2013.

This 90-minute masterclass brings together “lessons learned” from the banking failures of 2023 and discusses the latest thinking on best-practice ALCO governance framework.

Learning outcomes:

Have a good understanding of how lax ALM discipline, and lack of ALCO oversight, led to the demise of several large US banks in 2023
Be aware of what elements constitute a good-practice ALCO operating model
Understand what aspects of the ALCO operation are most important for the bank they are working in

We also run this masterclass on 24 September. Full details here.
