The Course
The course includes a large array of treasury management exercises and case studies based on well known multinationals in five sectors: technology; pulp and paper; airlines, consumer goods and finance. Participants will therefore learn the dynamic practice of treasury management as well as the generally held ideas and beliefs which support this practice.
Some of the Learning Outcomes
Communicate with confidence
This course aims to augment your ability to discuss treasury risks with clients, customers, prospects and your colleagues within your division of your firm. It reflects the need for bankers to develop a detailed knowledge of customers and the sector in which they operate and for corporate and other institutional hedgers to understand bankers and the hedging solutions they offer. The course encourages a dialogue among the participants, as well as with the trainer, which allows bankers and their customers to explore the customers’ needs, before determining how best to cover these needs and the role banks play in this.
