Market risk management and the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB) represent a modern regulatory framework designed to strengthen the measurement, governance, and capital treatment of market risk within financial institutions. They integrate market risk measurement, trading book governance, capital adequacy, risk modeling, regulatory compliance, and model validation to improve the resilience and transparency of financial markets. This training program explores market risk management frameworks, FRTB standards, standardized and internal model approaches, risk measurement methodologies, capital calculation models, and governance practices aligned with international regulatory requirements.
