By GBA Corporate

Overview Understanding the Global Foreign Exchange (FX) has become an important part of the financial system. Today many financial institutions and organisations are more focused on enhancing the skills of the management and modification of their source of liquidity, re-organising their funding system and studying the benefits of short-term investment and trading strategies. This diverted focus brought the money market in the limelight thereby giving more opportunities for understanding the different ways of funding, trading and many more investment opportunities. The course is specially designed by the financial experts in FX and Money Market thereby building a strong foundation on the tools and techniques of the FX market and international money market. It gives detailed insight into the financial crisis that happened to take place and what we have learned from that including the development in the FX and Money Market. The course highlights the unified nature of FX, money markets and derivatives and examines the liquidity features and risks of diverse instruments and funding strategies.
