Financial Management, Banking, and Insurance Thailand

Risk Management in Banking Training Course

Risk management in banking training is the systematic process of identifying, assessing, and mitigating financial and non-financial threats to a banking institution's capital and earnings. It enables professionals to protect assets, ensure regulatory compliance, and maintain institutional stability. In an era where digital transformation and AI-driven credit scoring are reshaping the financial landscape, the gap between traditional risk models and modern market volatility has never been wider.

This course serves as the bridge from conceptual awareness to evidence-based action, providing the technical depth required to navigate the complexities of Basel III and Basel IV frameworks. Designed for credit risk analysts, treasury managers, and compliance officers, the program focuses on practical outputs such as risk appetite statements and ICAAP documentation. You will move beyond theoretical definitions to apply stress testing methodologies and liquidity coverage ratios in real-world scenarios. By the end of this training, you will possess the capability to lead risk initiatives that satisfy both internal governance requirements and international regulatory expectations, positioning yourself as a practitioner-leader in the global banking sector.

About the Course

Modern banking institutions demand risk professionals who can demonstrate results through structured systems rather than scattered knowledge. This course addresses the core problem of managing systemic and idiosyncratic risks in a high-velocity financial environment. You will develop the capability to calculate Value at Risk (VaR), design Key Risk Indicators (KRIs), and implement the COSO ERM framework within a banking context. The curriculum is built for professionals who must deliver measurable stability under conditions of budget constraints and accelerating regulatory change. Risk Management in Banking Training is a comprehensive program where you will learn to align risk strategy with business objectives. It involves the application of quantitative and qualitative tools to safeguard the balance sheet. Professionals use it to minimize loan losses, optimize capital allocation, and ensure continuous operation during market disruptions.

Throughout the five days, you will practice hands-on modeling for credit risk using Probability of Default (PD) and Loss Given Default (LGD) metrics. You will be introduced to the nuances of market risk, including interest rate risk in the banking book (IRRBB) and foreign exchange exposure. The approach turns complex regulatory requirements into actionable operational workflows. You will gain specific capabilities in drafting Risk Appetite Statements (RAS), conducting Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Processes (ICAAP), and building liquidity stress tests. This training is specifically designed for those who need to demonstrate immediate value to leadership through improved risk reporting and more accurate risk-weighted asset (RWA) calculations. We distinguish between the conceptual overview of emerging fintech risks and the hands-on implementation of core credit and operational risk controls.


Target Audience

This program is essential for professionals responsible for safeguarding bank assets and ensuring institutional compliance with international standards.

This course is designed for:

  • Banking Risk Analysts responsible for credit portfolio monitoring
  • Credit Officers evaluating corporate and retail loan applications
  • Treasury Managers overseeing liquidity and interest rate risk
  • Compliance Officers ensuring adherence to Basel III/IV standards
  • Internal Auditors reviewing risk management frameworks and controls
  • Operational Risk Managers developing resilience and recovery plans
  • Finance Directors reporting on risk-weighted assets and capital
  • Relationship Managers requiring a deeper understanding of credit risk
  • Regulatory Reporting Specialists preparing ICAAP and ILAAP filings
  • IT Risk Specialists managing cybersecurity and digital banking threats

Course Objectives

This course equips you to design, execute, and report banking risk initiatives that ensure financial stability, regulatory compliance, and strategic alignment.

By the end of this course, you'll be able to:

  • Assess current risk maturity using the ISO 31000 risk management standard
  • Apply Basel III capital adequacy requirements to institutional balance sheets
  • Construct a comprehensive Risk Appetite Statement (RAS) for banking operations
  • Calculate Credit Risk metrics including PD, LGD, and EAD for portfolios
  • Evaluate Market Risk exposure using Value at Risk (VaR) methodologies
  • Navigate the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) reporting requirements
  • Implement Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) for monitoring operational risk events
  • Synthesize stress testing results into actionable executive-level risk reports

Requirements & Prerequisites

Participants should have a foundational understanding of banking operations and basic financial statements. No prior experience in risk modeling is required, but familiarity with Microsoft Excel for basic calculations is highly recommended. This course is suitable for those moving into risk roles or seeking to formalize their existing risk management knowledge.


Local Application and Business Return

How participants can apply the training in local operating conditions, and the return their organisation can plan for.

How participants apply this

Participants in Thailand apply these skills by aligning internal risk models with the Bank of Thailand's (BoT) specific notifications on Basel III capital adequacy and liquidity coverage ratios (LCR). They focus on implementing TFRS 9 for forward-looking credit loss provisioning and managing the unique risks associated with the 'Solo Consolidated' supervision of financial business groups. Professionals also use these methodologies to draft Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) documents that satisfy BoT's Pillar 2 requirements, particularly for Domestic Systemically Important Banks (D-SIBs).

Expected ROI

Within 12 months, institutions can expect a more optimized capital structure, potentially reducing the cost of capital by aligning more closely with BoT's risk-weighted asset (RWA) guidelines. Improved credit risk modeling under TFRS 9 typically leads to more accurate provisioning, reducing unexpected hits to earnings. Additionally, the ability to produce high-quality ICAAP and stress-testing reports reduces the likelihood of regulatory penalties or additional capital add-ons imposed by the Bank of Thailand during annual examinations.

Training Methodology

This is a practical, outcome-driven course designed to turn banking risk aspiration into measurable action and credible reporting.

Methodology includes:

  • Hands-on calculation of Risk-Weighted Assets (RWA) using provided datasets
  • Scenario simulation of a liquidity crisis requiring LCR and NSFR adjustments
  • Audit of a sample Risk Appetite Statement against ISO 31000 principles
  • Stakeholder mapping for the ICAAP and ILAAP reporting chain
  • Case study analysis of banking failures in the retail and investment sectors
  • Group workshop producing a functional Operational Risk Register deliverable
  • Reflection exercise benchmarking current bank practices against Basel IV standards

    As of June 2025, the bank maintained a Tier 1 capital ratio of 17.83% and a total capital ratio of 18.94%, significantly exceeding the BoT's minimum regulatory requirements and ensuring resilience against market volatility.
