Upon completion of this course, participants are meant to have acquired a solid understanding of the above-mentioned topics. The course is meant to be "hands-on" in large parts, meaning that various analytical tools will be provided to course participants under the topical blocks and participants be trained for their use. This will include, for example, quantitative methods to measure systemic risk (balance sheet-based, market data-based), credit risk model components pertaining to IFRS 9, etc. Participants can take such model components with them to their home institutions, which should further aid their understanding and application of the relevant methods in their future work.
