Treasury Risk Policy and Financial Risk Governance Framework Design

Sound treasury depends on clear policy that defines who may take which financial risks and within what limits. This course guides finance leaders in designing a treasury policy and financial risk governance framework covering liquidity, funding, currency, interest rate and counterparty risk. It draws on the governance expectations that boards and auditors apply to African corporates and their treasuries.
