FAQ:

What specific qualifications or prerequisites are needed for participants before enrolling in the course?

A background in public finance, economics, accounting, or risk management is beneficial. No prior experience in fiscal risk tools is required.

How long is each day's session, and is there a total number of hours required for the entire course?

Each day's session is generally structured to last around 4-5 hours, with breaks and interactive activities included. The total course duration spans one week, approximately 20-25 hours of instruction.

What is the difference between implicit and explicit contingent liabilities?

Explicit liabilities are legally binding obligations, like loan guarantees or PPP contracts. Implicit liabilities are not formalized but arise from public expectations (e.g., bailouts or disaster response funding).
