Description
Treasury is a key finance function that is vital to the financial health and success of every business, large or small. The treasury function has evolved from traditional cash and liquidity management to a more strategic function encompassing broader working capital, corporate finance and risk management activities. Treasury involves the management of money and financial risks in a business. Its priority is to ensure the business has the money it needs to manage its day-to-day business obligations, while also helping develop its long term financial strategy and policies. This seminar will provide treasury professionals and financial managers with an understanding of the treasury function, and how to apply the fundamental principles of the treasury function within the finance department of their organizations. Participants will work through detailed calculations (e.g. components of WACC, foreign exchange contracts, financial modeling, impacts of COVID-19 on treasury), case studies, and examples.
It's the treasury professional's role to identify, assess and manage liquidity and financial risks so they support the business's objectives. You'll also help to identify and create new opportunities that could benefit the business.
