Mastering Corporate Treasury Risk

Complexities of the current marketplace, with its connections with countries around the world, have made the requirements of the Treasury even more complex. With increasing uncertainties in the market (within the FX and IRR space), companies are having to become more self reliant in hedging against risks which hinder their ability to do business.

The financial crisis of 2008 revealed the inability of banks to hedge their own risks. It is imperative that the new treasury departments learn to dictate to the banks their desires and expectations and play a lead role in determining the pricing and requirements of the treasury strategies in place. Failure to hedge and forecast properly can have disastrous consequences including potential bankruptcy, loss of shareholder confidence and investor wrath.

This three day Mastering Corporate Treasury Risk training course is designed with these needs in mind. Prepared after extensive research, the course is an intermediate level course designed for seasoned professionals to not only update their knowledge regarding new developments in hedging techniques and tools; but also equip them with the knowledge to implement within their departments readily.  The first day focuses on developing effective strategies to mitigate liquidity risk within the GCC perspective. The second day focuses on intermediate to advanced strategies related to controlling of the main risks associated with the treasury department. The third day is optional but highly recommended hands on excel modelling workshop that will help gel the learning from the first two days and allow professionals to intellectually and operationally solve their modelling challenges. In all, the three days should leave attendees with a sense of accomplishment and allow them to further the aims of their department and become the drivers of organisational value.
