Details
Currency and interest rate fluctuations can cause significant earnings volatility for companies. This demonstrably has a negative impact on the value of the company - in some cases even the continued existence of the company is called into question.
In the course of the seminar, the process of market risk management is prepared in a structured manner. This identifies which items are risky and analyzes how the risks affect the company. Different quantification methods are presented and the advantages and disadvantages are discussed in detail. Based on this information, it is possible to make well-founded decisions on the risk strategy and then to implement them.
The potential impact of these risks requires a careful choice of strategy - also with regard to sustainable corporate management
