About the course
In this three-day interactive learning opportunity, participants will enhance their understanding of IFRS 9 best practice by developing the skills to consistently manage IFRS 9 model risk, evaluate risk stage determination, and explore IFRS 9 model validation and its alternatives to develop a robust framework.
Participants will explore practical examples of the IFRS 9 implementation challenges, focusing on data management and the implications of quality and availability, as well as the difficulties of stress-testing under IFRS 9.
Interactive sessions will connect the expert tutor with participants through active discussion. With correct implementation of models fundamental in the current uncertain environment, participants will learn how to deal with loss and exposure given default.
