Course Description:

'' Managing financial risk is an important activity for organizations that transact in foreign currencies, use floating rate debt, or deal in commodities. These organizations typically hedge financial risk using various financial instruments, including derivative securities. While hedging is important, setting up the treasury function to manage how and when the hedging is done is perhaps even more important.
