Who should attend?
This course is a workshop based course and is aimed at those who want a hands-on, in-depth day analysing balance sheets and discussing the nuances of liquidity and interest rate risk. Those attending would benefit from already having attended the treasury risk course before-hand. The course would also be suitable for those who already have a fairly good knowledge of balance sheet management, liquidity risk and ALCO operations.

It will be useful for those who attend ALCO/Risk Committees, or work in related areas who require detailed understanding of treasury operations. It’s aimed at:
- those who work in first line lending and savings functions;
- executive and non-executive directors;
- senior management;
- second-line directors;
- managers and officers;
- auditors.
