Basel IV: Strengthening Capital, Liquidity, & Risk Management | 2-Day Course
Welcome to this two-day Basel IV – Capital and Liquidity Requirements course in New York City, USA. This workshop delivers a comprehensive and practical overview of the new Basel IV (also known as Basel 3.1) regulatory framework that is reshaping global banking standards.
Â
Basel IV Reforms
The Basel IV framework—formally known as Basel III: Finalising post-crisis reforms—introduces major updates to how banks measure and manage credit, market, and operational risk.  Implementation begins in the European Union on 1 January 2025 under CRR III / CRD VI, with the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB) following in 2026.
The United Kingdom will adopt the standards from 1 January 2027, with the trading-book rules phased in by 2028 and a full transition running through 2030. UAE-licensed banks are expected to align with the Basel IV (Basel 3.1) reforms under CBUAE oversight, with detailed implementation plans projected through 2025-27.
These reforms, introduced by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, aim to enhance global capital consistency by limiting internal-model variability through an output floor, revising the leverage ratio, and overhauling frameworks for credit valuation adjustment (CVA) and operational risk. While the intent is to harmonise risk measurement, regional impacts will differ depending on banks’ modelling practices.
