Course Overview
In finance the difference between a healthy position on country risk in trade and a dangerous one is often a single assumption. Regulators no longer accept intent as evidence of control over risk in trade. The course sets out a working method for this aspect of financial and banking practice that participants can apply the week they return. Buying a tool rarely fixes country risk in trade; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better the financial and banking practice discipline is rarely technical. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on risk in trade and revise it on evidence. Participants test their assumptions about country risk in trade against scenarios designed to break weak ones. It suits anyone whose decisions touch risk in trade, in large organisations and small ones alike. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for this strand of financial and banking practice survives a hostile question.
