Course Overview

In finance the difference between a healthy position on emerging market volatility risk and a dangerous one is often a single assumption. Regulators no longer accept intent as evidence of control over volatility risk. The programme is built to be used, and every section of the financial and banking practice capability it covers ends in something applicable. Each session closes with a decision the participant must justify about emerging market volatility risk in their own setting. Participants who influence this aspect of financial and banking practice without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better volatility risk is rarely technical. Moving emerging market volatility risk from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. Participants gain a realistic view of what volatility risk costs and what it returns. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for this strand of financial and banking practice survives a hostile question.
