Training on Liquidity and Funding Strategies for Corporates and Banks

Effective liquidity and funding management are essential for financial resilience, operational stability, and strategic growth. Corporates and banks must navigate volatile markets, regulatory requirements, funding constraints, and evolving risk landscapes while maintaining optimal cash positions and sustainable capital structures. Poor liquidity planning can expose institutions to funding gaps, increased borrowing costs, and financial distress.

This 5-day course provides an in-depth understanding of liquidity management frameworks, funding instruments, and advanced treasury strategies. Participants will explore cash flow forecasting, working capital optimization, short- and long-term funding sources, capital market instruments, contingency funding planning, and asset-liability management principles. The training also examines regulatory requirements, liquidity ratios, stress testing, and risk mitigation techniques relevant to both corporates and banking institutions.

Through practical case studies and scenario-based exercises, participants will learn how to design liquidity buffers, diversify funding sources, manage refinancing risks, and strengthen financial resilience. By the end of the program, participants will be able to implement strategic liquidity and funding plans aligned with market conditions and regulatory expectations.
