Tomorrow’s Bank Treasury and ALCO: Charting a path towards true enlightened balance sheet optimization.
It comes as no surprise that post the Basel III era, banks are facing significant challenges in trying to deliver the elevated ROC numbers seen pre-the global financial crisis. Depending on the size of the institution the quantitative and qualitative obligations that need to be continually met are not insubstantial. In addition, it would be fair to say banks’ financial performance is not being helped by the current uncertain global geo-political environment.
Given the heavy regulatory burdens, changing market dynamics and less than robust global economic outlook, should bank shareholders expectations be tempered accordingly?
A bank’s Asset-Liability Committee (ALCO) and its Treasury are now at the forefront in driving the group’s business operating model and ensuring an optimised balance sheet, but how can this strategy be best executed?
Webinar Agenda Part 2:
- Challenges to the operating model status quo
- Embracing a new digital vision for Treasury, delaying it could have wider negative ramifications
- Implications for ALCO and strategic balance sheet management
- Transition and roadmap, what are the tools and technologies needed to crystalize the vision
