Certified Bank Director Introduction 01
A Few Words from
Dr. Margaret Cullen, Programme Director,
Certified Bank Director Programme.
Through the Corporate Governance Code for Credit Institutions and Insurance Undertakings 2013 and the Fitness & Probity Standards 2011, the Central Bank of Ireland introduced new rules to ensure that robust governance arrangements and appropriate oversight and standards are in place to avoid or minimise the risk of a future crisis. The banking sector has gone through a fundamental and unprecedented restructuring, with banks having to redefine and re-engineer their banking models. Against the background of more stringent capital and liquidity requirements in Basel III, Boards of Directors are tasked with rebuilding their organisations and developing strategies that provide sustainable profitable growth. Bank Directors face significant challenges bringing the industry forward due to the need to change business models and to implement regulation. Culture and good governance are key to achieving success.
Michael Feeney
Chief Executive Officer The Institute of Banking
Understanding the risk profile and risk appetite in the context of overall strategy and the dynamic relationship between risk appetite, profitability and stakeholder value maximisation are key features of the Central Bank’s Corporate Governance Code for Credit Institutions and Insurance Undertakings. Board directors therefore should be highly aware of the key issues and be in a position to offer well-grounded views and provide challenge as part of their board responsibilities and participation. The Certified Bank Director programme is unique in the Irish market, designed specifically for Bank Directors, (executive and non-executive directors). It is an intensive 10 day programme completed in two separate blocks.
The programme provides participants with a comprehensive understanding of the unique governance issues associated with banks arising from the inherent complexity of banking business models and their risk profile. It also provides an understanding of the duties and responsibilities of directors and the behaviours required from them and well-functioning boards. Inadequate credit assessment was identified as a key contributor to the banking crisis and governance issues in relation to risk will receive particular attention during the programme. Strongly rooted in academic research, theory and regulation, the programme is designed to provide practical knowledge and application. We look forward to welcoming you to the programme.

PROGRAMME DELIVERY AND CURRICULUM
The Certified Bank Director programme is delivered two times per year in Dublin. From 2016, the programme will also be delivered once a year in London. The programme comprises 9 modules delivered over 10 days across two blocks of five days’ duration each. A panel of subject area experts drawn from academia and industry lead each of the individual modules. The emphasis in the programme is on the application of key concepts to enhance the skills of participants and to create a learning forum where challenges can be explored and wisdom and insights dissected and shared.
ON COMPLETION OF THIS PROGRAMME CANDIDATES WILL:
- Understand the essence of a bank, the banking system, the lessons from the banking crisis, and the likely future development of banking post-crisis including the implications of Basel III;
- Appreciate the implications of recent regulatory changes and the legal, regulatory and governance framework relevant to board directors;
- Know the components, measurement and control of bank risk, stress testing, funding and credit risk;
- Comprehend the unique risk profile of banking models, including the systematic and systemic implications of risk-related policies in the context of strategy and the relationship between risk appetite, profitability and stakeholder maximisation;
- Appreciate the efficacy of the internal governance processes and the application of best practice;
- Understand the behaviours required from well-functioning boards and the expectations and requirements of individual directors.
WHO SHOULD UNDERTAKE THIS PROGRAMME?
The Certified Bank Director programme is targeted at executive and non-executive directors of the main and subsidiary boards of banks. It will be highly beneficial, not only to individuals new to the roles and responsibilities of being a bank director, but also to experienced bank directors operating in a significantly changed regulatory landscape. This programme is also targeted at senior managers aspiring to be bank executive directors and/ or identified as potential future executive directors within their organisation.
ASSESSMENT
An assessment is attached to each module to ensure that the learning outcomes associated with the module have been achieved. The assessment will take the form of a learning journal recorded by programme participants during and on completion of each block. A learning journal is a reflective log that records a participant’s learning experience of a particular topic/module. It allows participants to reflect on how their study and learning has developed during each module, what they are learning and the relevance or application of this learning to their own experiences in a work setting. The content of the learning journal will be unique to each participant and will reflect their experiences during the class and their own interpretation of the material presented. The learning journal will be evaluated and graded by the Programme Director to assess the participant’s knowledge, synthesis, analysis and development.
AWARD
On successful completion of this programme, candidates will earn the professional designation of Certified Bank Director from the Institute of Banking.
CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Certified Bank Directors have an obligation to develop and maintain the level of professional competence relevant to their positions. The Institute of Banking offers Certified Bank Directors a comprehensive CPD programme to help them meet their CPD requirements. The Institute supports Certified Bank Directors through the ongoing provision of regulatory and best practice readings and updates.
About the CBD Programme
“An excellent programme designed by the Institute of Banking. I found the structured delivery and content of lectures, workshops and assignments were very comprehensive and afforded the opportunity to explore the unique governance issues in banks arising from the complexity of their business model, risk profile and regulation. More critically it also encouraged a deep understanding of the development and monitoring of strategy plans to enable profitable, sustainable growth aligned with fair outcomes for customers. Real diversity in the cohort of participants from across financial services also contributed strongly to the learning within the classroom and the overall value of the programme.”

“Having spent over eight years as an Executive Director of Citibank Europe plc, I was very attracted to the Certified Bank Director Programme as a means of benchmarking my understanding of banking business models and governance against a formally organised professional programme.
The benefits were tremendous, not least my ability to formally review all pertinent industry and regulatory material again as well as to reflect on and debate strategic issues. It also provided a focused opportunity to thoroughly reflect on the material and draw deep learning experiences from that exercise as well as engaging interactively with a network of very senior bank directors on important industry topics - past, current and future. There is also a valuable continuing professional development component to enable those who undertake the programme to keep up to date with governance related issues.
The standards of the modules delivered through an expert group of industry and academic lecturers were enhanced further by the deep insights gleaned from the debates.
This programme is a must for those involved with bank boards and it will enhance professional standards and knowledge in the sector at board level.”
