About the programme

Course Overview

Capital, liquidity and reputation are all exposed by weak handling of instant settlement solutions. The audit trail behind the financial and banking practice capability matters as much as the decision itself. Participants test their assumptions about this area of financial and banking practice against scenarios designed to break weak ones. Where instant settlement solutions is measured, it improves; where it is only discussed, it drifts. The programme builds the judgement to know which parts of the wider financial and banking practice agenda to standardise and which to leave flexible. Most organisations already have a policy on the financial and banking practice discipline; far fewer can show it working. The course sets out a working method for instant settlement solutions that participants can apply the week they return. The content is relevant to those who own this part of financial and banking practice and to those who are held accountable for its results. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on the practice within financial and banking practice ready to put in front of a decision maker.
