Extreme periods of market and economic volatility such as the recent pandemic and the 2008 GFC put enormous strains on treasury and finance teams and can cause knee-jerk decision making from company boards.

The session will be covering the following topics:  

• FX risk management
  • Identify, Measure, Manage & Monitor

  • Accounting considerations  
• Policy and process  
• Building strategies that work in normal market conditions and black swan events  
• Understanding the tail risk
• Liquidity, in a crisis
