Overview Extending business activities beyond organisational boundaries to create value for the organisation is not new. However, the quantity and complexity of the relationships that now exist beyond organisational boundaries are increasing, as is regulatory and stakeholder scrutiny. While partnerships with third parties, including critical suppliers, can be beneficial to the organisation on so many levels, such alliances can expose the organisation to many unknowns, and those unknowns will undoubtedly increase the level of risk. The key, then, is properly managing the infrastructure, systems, staff and outside support to adequately manage that risk. 

Overview The course begins by introducing credit risk, its components and its drivers. The course then dives into business risk assessment and group structure risks. After examining financial statements, including accounting concepts and principles, the course concludes with a review of financial analysis and its four main risk areas.
