Australian interest rates have declined dramatically over the last 12 years and the corporate knowledge to manage in a rising interest rate environment has moved on. Warren Buffet said “Only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked.” There’s never been a better time to ensure financial risk management policies, procedures, systems and people are ready for the interest rates and volatilities ahead.
For over 15 years, Treasury Training Services (TTS) has provided training and advisory services in Financial Risk Management (FRM) including interest rates, FX, liquidity, funding, cash management and commodity price risk management including policies, procedures, controls and reports required to effectively manage those risks. We cover the financial market’s main transaction types.
We schedule several 2-day face-to-face public courses a year in Sydney and Melbourne. We also provide in-house tailored courses to address a corporation's unique financial risks including tailoring the course to include the client's policy and reports. We’ve run in-house courses for Boards and Management teams in corporations, financial institutions and commodity traders.
We offer a Treasury Health Check - a 2-3 day review of the FRM policies, procedures, reports and controls for a corporation. We’ve also assisted internal auditors with treasury reviews.
We’ve assisted with the development of FRM policies, procedures and controls and with the selection, evaluation, implementation and post-implementation reviews of treasury systems. We’ve also developed and reviewed performance measurement and reporting systems for FX, interest rate risk management and commodity price risk management and undertaken expert witness engagements relating to financial investments, project finance and hedging.
TTS clients are corporations, financial institutions, government-based enterprises, co-operatives and commodity traders spanning a wide range of industries and geographies.
