Corporate Banking & Institutional Coverage Mastery
Cover corporates with sector fluency instead of product menus.
The executive challenge
The problem this program solves
Your institution still earns most of its margin from products the mobile rails have commoditised, and the board is asking what corporate banking changes about that — this year. Margin erosion is quiet and compounding, and it is revealed only when it is expensive to reverse. The programme teaches the operator's craft in corporate banking: reading capital, liquidity and unit economics so the next decision is yours, not your vendor's.

What you will be able to do

- Stress-test corporate banking strategy against rate, FX and credit scenarios before the board or the supervisor does.
- Diagnose where your institution creates — and destroys — value in corporate banking across the balance sheet.
- Present a corporate banking position to boards and supervisors with evidence they will accept.
The IPAT Course Standard
The five-day journey
Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.
IPAT Signature Case™
Deposits Leave at the Speed of a Rumour
A viral post questions a tier-two African bank’s solvency. The institution is sound, but its deposit base is concentrated and its app is the third-slowest in the market. By morning, the interbank line has tightened.
Your decision: Set the 72-hour posture — liquidity, communication and regulator engagement — with incomplete information about how far the run goes.
IPAT Data Lab™
A a mobile-money platform cannot see where its book is quietly deteriorating.
Dataset: Synthetic loan-book panel for a mobile-money platform: 80,000 facilities across segments with vintage and behaviour data.
Your task: Segment the portfolio, find concentration and deterioration, and design the repricing and workout response.
