Event Overview

About the event

IIR is pleased to bring you Treasury Products And Markets – a comprehensive professional education training course for the finance industry. If you are involved with corporate treasury or investment activities then this is a must attend event for you.

This intensive programme is designed to provide you with a practical understanding of the fundamentals of treasury products and how they are used in modern markets. The focus will be on providing a practical methodology and approach from which to understand and analyse the ever increasing range of products and their application to real business situations. The course focuses less on the theory and more on practical realities and as such it is designed for people who need to understand how products and markets work, what the risks are, how to value them fairly and how to identify opportunities.

The programme is broken into ten modules that address the major markets and issues that you must be comfortable with in order to work successfully with treasury products and markets. Topics addressed include foreign exchange markets and products, fixed income and interest rate markets, risk management, futures, swaps, credit derivatives, options, structured products, Islamic products, development of new markets and regulatory and market
considerations.

Your expert programme director, Nicholas Weston has experience spanning two and a half decades in the capital and money markets and now manages his own financial consulting and training company. He is a dynamic and stimulating trainer who brings an unrivalled level of practical experience and will ensure that you leave this course with the necessary skills to make the most of your products and market activities.

Who Should Attend?

Finance professionals in front, middle and back offices as well as corporate treasury professionals who are looking to improve their understanding of treasury products and markets. In addition, it would be relevant for executives in alternative fields who would like to obtain a practical and integrated understanding of treasury products and markets.

Visit Dubai This Summer! Dubai is an Emirate of captivating contrasts. From the timeless tranquillity of the desert to the lively bustle of the souk, Dubai offers a kaleidoscope of attractions for visitors. In a single day, you can experience everything from rugged mountains and awe-inspiring sand dunes to sandy beaches and lush green parks, from dusty villages to luxurious residential districts, and from ancient houses with windtowers to ultra-modern shopping malls. The Emirate is both a dynamic international business centre and a laid-back tourist escape; a city where the sophistication of the 21st century walks hand in hand with the simplicity of a bygone era. These contrasts give Dubai its unique flavour and personality; a cosmopolitan society with an international lifestyle, yet with a culture deeply rooted in the Islamic traditions of Arabia. Since earliest times, Dubai has been a meeting place, bringing together the Bedouin of the desert interior with the pearl-diver, the merchant of the city with the sea-going fisherman. Dubai Summer Surprises (DSS) is an annual festival focusing on providing fun, knowledge and entertainment through a medley of events that puts the ‘pep’ back into summer for both adults and children. Each week during June to August, a series of weekly themed surprises unfold. Shopping malls become entertainment hubs providing shows and hosting special activities based on the different surprises. Combine business with leisure this summer! Enjoy discounted hotel packages and treat the family to a fun-filled holiday!
