Build the audit evidence that demonstrates banking accounting and reporting standards operated as designed.
Advanced Banking Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards
Build a working method for banking accounting and reporting standards that stands up to scrutiny and survives daily pressure.
Course Overview
Capital, liquidity and reputation are all exposed by weak handling of banking accounting and reporting standards. Regulators no longer accept intent as evidence of control over reporting standards. Organisations that document the financial and banking practice capability properly resolve disputes about it far more quickly. The level assumes working familiarity with the business line but no prior formal training in banking accounting and reporting standards. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of the practice within financial and banking practice rather than to abstract argument. This programme builds reporting standards from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. Moving banking accounting and reporting standards from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about reporting standards under scrutiny. The final session converts the week's work on this part of financial and banking practice into commitments with owners and dates.
