Financial Risk Management

The Wall Street Mini MBA in Finance & Risk Management training course begins with the foundations of financial management, accounting terminology and the interpretation of the principal financial statements. It then develops financial analysis through ratios, cash-flow assessment, budgeting and forecasting, before addressing the time value of money and the appraisal of investment decisions. The agenda progresses to sources of finance, the cost of capital and capital structure, connecting operational financial information with broader corporate financing and investment considerations.

The later agenda moves from corporate finance into business valuation and the financial dimensions of strategic decision-making, including the relationship between return and risk. It then examines the principal categories of financial and business risk, together with approaches to risk identification, assessment, measurement and control. The course concludes by bringing these themes together through risk-management frameworks, governance and the treatment of market, credit, liquidity and operational exposures, while also considering the role of diversification, hedging and financial instruments in managing uncertainty.
