Course Overview

This 6-day program delivers a comprehensive understanding of how banks manage treasury functions, liquidity, cash flow, and balance sheet strategies. The first three days build a solid theoretical foundation in treasury operations, financial risk management, liquidity forecasting, ALM, corporate funding, and treasury management systems. The final three days take place inside a major Dubai bank, where participants observe real-time treasury activities, including FX and money market dealing, intraday liquidity management, counterparty controls, hedge execution, and full trade-processing workflows. By interacting directly with treasury, risk, finance, and back-office teams, participants gain firsthand insight into operational processes, compliance practices, regulatory reporting, and ALCO decision-making. This combined learning experience ensures participants develop both the analytical knowledge and practical skills needed to operate effectively in real banking environments.
