Bank Recovery and Resolution Planning (RRP) Certification Course
In our intensive five-day Bank Recovery and Resolution Planning Course, we delve into key issues, tools, and techniques essential for creating and managing an RRP. Explore real-life challenges encountered by banks in the RRP process.
Overview
This course is a targeted, practical training program designed to build professional competence in designing, evaluating, and implementing recovery and resolution plans for banks and financial institutions. In response to global financial crises and evolving supervisory frameworks, regulators now require institutions to prepare credible recovery strategies and resolution documentation that preserve financial stability and protect stakeholders.
This intensive course provides a comprehensive understanding of the international regulatory environment — including key attributes of effective resolution regimes — and delves into the key tools, techniques and governance approaches used in recovery and resolution planning (RRP). Through real‑world case examples, stress‑testing frameworks and scenario design, participants learn how to prepare actionable plans, engage with supervisors and build operational readiness to address crisis conditions at both firm‑wide and systemic levels.
