Understanding foreign exchange and associated risk

The foreign exchange (FX) markets have never been busier, or more volatile and risky, especially post Brexit.

This course looks at the FX markets, and how to manage currency risk, from a professional, practical perspective.

This programme will explore and explain the FX markets from both the sell side (banks) and buy side (corporate and asset managers) perspective.

New market initiatives such as e-FX, CLS and GTB will be covered, and all terminology and jargon will be fully explained.

No prior knowledge is assumed.
