This training program is being jointly implemented by the Asia-Pacific Finance and Development Center (AFDC) in Shanghai and the Melbourne APEC Finance Centre (MAFC). Policy makers and regulators from APEC developing economies banking supervisory systems will be exposed to current thinking and practices regarding the implementation of Basel II from both a regulatory and an industry practitioners’ perspective.
The objective of the program is to focus on key aspects of risk - credit, market, and operational risks - and the techniques to measure and manage risk. Liquidity risk and the pressures arising from rising interest rates, tightening global credit and liquidity conditions and measures to deal with them in the region’s banking systems will be analysed. How banking regulators might approach banking risks arising under current liquidity conditions will also be considered. Finally, the pressures for reforms to governance arrangements in banking supervisory agencies and in commercial banks to implement Basel II and to manage emerging financial pressures will be assessed. The program will consist of a four day training program followed by one day of site visits to financial institutions in Shanghai. 8 - 11 December 2008 at the Shanghai National Accounting Institute in Shnaghai, China. The latest program and presentations are available here. This event is kindly sponsored by the APEC Support Fund and the Victorian Government.
