Pension funds hold the long-term savings of millions of members, and failures in governance, investment, or administration can wipe out those savings. Supervisors cannot examine every fund in equal depth, so effective supervision depends on knowing where the greatest risks lie and focusing attention and resources there. This is the idea behind risk-based supervision, which supports early detection of emerging problems, makes better use of limited supervisory resources, and encourages funds to manage themselves well.
This five-day course takes participants step by step through risk-based supervision of pension funds, from identifying and assessing the main risks, through the regulatory components that support supervision and the design of a supervisory framework, to supervisory response, risk mitigation, and the governance mechanisms that protect members. It draws on international good practice, including the OECD and IOPS guidance on pension supervision, and on the experience of supervisors in Southern Africa and elsewhere.
Through case studies, practical exercises, and group work, participants gain the knowledge and tools to implement and oversee risk-based supervision, build quality assurance into each stage, and strengthen governance in their own funds or institutions.
By the end of this Risk-Based Pension Funds Supervision and Governance course, participants will be able to:
Our diverse instructional approaches ensure effective learning:
– Lectures & Presentations: Engage with expert-driven, stimulating content.
– Course Material: Access well-crafted supporting resources.
– Group Work: Collaborate on discussions and case studies for practical insights.
– Workshops & Role-Play: Participate in immersive, scenario-based activities.
– Practical Application: Focus on applying theoretical knowledge in real situations.
– Post-Training Support: Receive extensive support after training for skill implementation.
The course instructor may adjust the programme for technical reasons, but the course objectives will always be met. The ten modules are spread over five days, two per day.

The Fraud Risk Management training was clear, practical, and very relevant to day-to-day work. Content was well structured and the real world case studies made concepts easy to apply. Presenter knowledge and engagement kept the session interactive. Overall a valuable program that strengthened my understanding of fraud detection, prevention, and regulatory requirements.
The facilitator was exceptionally good, approachable eloquent and was able to structure the course content to relate to our specific work designations, it was just perfect service delivery
