Course Overview

In today’s interconnected and fast-evolving financial landscape, organizations face growing exposure to various forms of financial risk, ranging from liquidity shortages and foreign exchange volatility to interest rate fluctuations and credit defaults. The ability to proactively identify, assess, and manage these risks has become a strategic necessity rather than an operational preference. According to the 2024 PwC Global Treasury Survey, over 75% of CFOs across industries now prioritize financial risk management as a critical focus area, particularly in response to increasing global uncertainty, market turbulence, and evolving regulatory expectations. In this context, strengthening treasury capabilities is key to maintaining enterprise value, ensuring compliance, and driving long-term financial resilience.
Pideya Learning Academy proudly presents the “Financial Risk Identification and Management in Treasury” training course—a comprehensive and insightful learning journey tailored to empower finance and treasury professionals with the knowledge and strategies needed to navigate today’s risk-heavy environment. This program is meticulously structured to integrate essential concepts in treasury operations with risk management best practices, enabling participants to make informed, data-driven decisions that strengthen financial stability and support strategic growth.
The course delves into the fundamental roles and responsibilities of the treasury function, equipping participants with a solid foundation in liquidity planning, cash forecasting, and capital structure management. Through detailed modules, learners will uncover techniques to analyze financial exposure, manage cash flow volatility, and align treasury policies with broader organizational goals. Key topics such as interest rate sensitivity, currency risk mitigation, and credit risk assessment are covered using globally recognized frameworks and methodologies.
Participants will also gain an in-depth understanding of modern treasury management systems and how they enhance transparency, accuracy, and compliance. Real-world use cases will illustrate how these systems facilitate automated reporting, financial analytics, and internal control enforcement—making treasury a more strategic partner within the organization. Additionally, the course explores critical global regulations that impact treasury operations, including IFRS updates, Basel III norms, and ESG-linked financial disclosures, helping participants stay ahead in a dynamic regulatory environment.
To prepare attendees for complex financial disruptions, the course offers exposure to advanced forecasting models, scenario analysis, and stress testing approaches that simulate unpredictable financial conditions. Strategic decision-making tools such as value-at-risk (VaR), risk-adjusted return analysis, and counterparty risk evaluation are integrated into the program to further enhance risk mitigation capabilities.
