Course Overview

In today’s fast-paced financial environment, the ability of banking institutions to manage funding, maintain liquidity, and ensure capital adequacy is no longer just a regulatory requirement—it is a strategic imperative. At Pideya Learning Academy, the “Funding, Liquidity, and Capital Management” training equips professionals with advanced financial management tools to confidently navigate an evolving financial ecosystem. This course offers a structured deep dive into the mechanisms that govern modern banking stability, with a special emphasis on the interrelationship between funding strategies, liquidity safeguards, and capital resilience.
The financial services industry continues to face growing complexities in response to macroeconomic volatility, increasing interest rate fluctuations, and stricter capital regulations. As of Q4 2023, the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) reported that global liquidity surpassed USD 100 trillion, reflecting not only the immense scale of financial markets but also the increasing challenges in liquidity risk management. Moreover, the implementation of Basel III and IV standards has intensified the pressure on banks to adhere to stringent capital and liquidity benchmarks, while simultaneously satisfying profitability targets and shareholder expectations. Financial institutions must now adopt integrated frameworks that address compliance and strategic planning in equal measure.
Pideya Learning Academy’s course on Funding, Liquidity, and Capital Management is designed to help professionals build resilient financial strategies that align with both market and regulatory demands. The curriculum delves into the evaluation of funding structures, examining the cost and risk profiles of retail deposits, interbank funding, and capital market instruments. Learners will gain a thorough understanding of liquidity planning methodologies, including stress testing models, liquidity buffers, and emergency funding plans. Equally important is the detailed analysis of capital adequacy requirements, risk-weighted asset allocation, and techniques for optimizing capital structures without undermining risk tolerance or profitability.
The training further empowers participants to design forward-looking capital management frameworks and recovery strategies that enhance institutional stability and investor confidence. Throughout the program, participants will explore how funding decisions affect balance sheet health and how capital planning aligns with both regulatory expectations and long-term business strategy.
Participants will also benefit from expert-led modules that feature:
Thorough evaluation of funding instruments and their impact on interest rate risk and liquidity positioning
Insight into liquidity stress testing frameworks, contingency planning, and funding risk mitigation
Exploration of capital optimization tools, including capital structure design and return on equity assessments
Comprehensive breakdown of LCR (Liquidity Coverage Ratio) and NSFR (Net Stable Funding Ratio) compliance strategies
Strategies to balance capital planning between regulatory compliance and shareholder value creation
Analysis of integrated treasury and risk functions to improve decision-making and governance effectiveness
