Course Overview
Capital, liquidity and reputation are all exposed by weak handling of sovereign risk and international financing. Growth built on poorly controlled international financing reverses faster than it accumulated. The programme converts this part of financial and banking practice from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. Applied research in financial and banking practice consistently shows that early structure around sovereign risk and international financing reduces downstream rework. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of the financial and banking practice discipline and supervised application. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for international financing, not for observers of it. They leave able to brief senior management on sovereign risk and international financing in terms that support a decision. A common pattern is strong design of international financing paired with weak follow-through. Participants leave with a plan for the wider financial and banking practice agenda sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.
