Treasury Risk Management, Funding, Liquidity, Interest Rate, FX

Recorded Session
60 Minutes

The treasury function manages a firm's liquidity, funding and interest rate risk, and often its foreign exchange and capital risk as well. This 60-minute treasury risk management webinar focuses on the bank treasury, though nonbank corporations face many of the same risks and processes.

You'll see how liquidity risk comes from a firm's ability to create assets and fund them, how interest rate (interest maturity) risk arises from mismatched asset and liability maturities, and when FX exposure appears. The session covers the nature of funding, liquidity and gap analysis, derivatives, stress testing, hedging, transfer pricing, capital ratios and the ALCO's oversight role.

It includes model reports treasury uses to manage liquidity and interest maturity risk.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

Treasury is one of the most important and demanding areas of a bank or corporation, and senior management needs to understand the balance sheet, its risks and how they are managed. This session explains each area of treasury risk, how to think about it, and the tools and management information used to control it.

It suits treasury managers, senior executives and board members with oversight duties, treasury risk, compliance and audit staff, regulators and university educators.
