Treasury & Budgeting

The 10-Day International Financial Reporting & Treasury Risk Management

This ten-day programme connects what an organization reports with the risks it carries, moving from the IFRS framework through instruments, impairment and consolidation into treasury risk. Participants build skills in risk measurement, hedging with hedge accounting documentation, and treasury controls and board risk reporting.

Introduction

The 10-Day International Financial Reporting & Treasury Risk Management Training Course connects what an organization reports with the risks it carries. Across ten days, participants work through the IFRS framework, revenue, leases, instruments, impairment and consolidation, then move into treasury risk: liquidity, interest rate, foreign exchange, credit and counterparty risk, hedging, and treasury controls. The programme links accounting recognition with risk measurement, because financial instruments sit at the centre of both. As a result, learners gain a connected view of reporting and risk. Furthermore, the course strengthens hedging judgement, model quality, and the governance that keeps both defensible.
