      <title>Liquidity Risk Management For Finantial Institutions</title>
      <description>Salvo’s two day course on advanced risk management for banking institutions focuses on the best practices in modeling liquidity risk undertaken by leading financial institutions after the lessons learned from the global financial crisis. The course tackles liquidity risk in conjunction with other risk categories (traditionally seen as disjoint risk classes) such as market and credit risk. The course leads the attendees through all relevant liquidity risk measures that are being adapted to reflect the newly created complexities of modern financial markets such as analytics, forecasting, measurement and risk indicators &amp; metrics. In addition, the course will cover the key areas of funds transfer pricing, stress testing, contingent planning and the new regulatory requirements under Basel III.</description>

      <title>Collateral Management in Energy Trading</title>
      <description>Dodd Frank and EMIR regulations require energy companies to trade
more through central parties and less with over-the-counter (OTC)
counterparties. Collateral management will become the central
activity to manage cash liquidity and operational risk in energy
trading organizations.
This two-day training course will provide the tools to analyse and
ultimately implement changes necessary to cover the analytical and
operational aspects of collateral management in energy trading. Each
half-day has 3 sessions with a combination of lectures, workshop
examples and case studies. The course explains how collateral
management fits within the enterprise risk management framework,
differences between using collateral for financial and physical
transactions, with over the counter and central counterparties. A walk
through the daily operations and its risks, and an analysis of the
practical implications of new regulations rising from the credit crisis.</description>

      <title>Repo and Securities Lending Market</title>
      <description>This is a two day training course has been designed to allow attendees to look at the repo and securities lending markets – and particularly their documentation and other legal aspects – through the eyes of market participants. The course will dedicate one day each to the repo and securities lending segments but, acknowledging that these segments have common features and driving forces, your tutors will draw parallels between the two and explain the rationale for these similarities and any
contrasts. Starting with an introduction to key concepts and the basic functioning of the
markets, the course will then switch its focus to the uses of the instruments and the key market players before concentrating on the core part of the course: the
documentation. As a central plank of the world of finance, the repo and
securities lending markets have needed to adapt to the massive changes that all markets have experienced as a result of the financial crisis. We will explore how the documentation has changed to keep up or, in some instances, to enable the
markets to be at the forefront of change. Along the way we shall also touch upon numerous other issues, including the tax and accounting treatment of the instruments, what happens when things go wrong and the impact of recent market and regulatory changes.</description>

      <title>Intermediate Financial Modelling Masterclass</title>
      <description> 
 
*Intensive, Hands-on Practical Workshop*
 For financial models to be truly useful they should be properly structured in that they should be easily readable, the logic should be easy to follow and, very importantly, they should be structured to prevent errors occurring. Often a model “dies” when the modelling incumbent leaves the company and a new modeller takes over, and this is generally because the new modeller cannot follow the logic of the model.
 
Excel is the de facto modelling language today, so in order to get the best out of a model a modeller would be wise to have a good understanding of the functions in Excel, what they do, and where they can be used in a financial model.

      <title>Advanced Financial Modelling Masterclass</title>
      <description> 
 
*Intensive, Hands-on Practical Workshop*
 For financial models to be truly useful they should be properly structured in that they should be easily readable, the logic should be easy to follow and, very importantly, they should be structured to prevent errors occurring. Often a model “dies” when the modelling incumbent leaves the company and a new modeller takes over, and this is generally because the new modeller cannot follow the logic of the model.
 
Excel is the de facto modelling language today, so in order to get the best out of a model a modeller would be wise to have a good understanding of the functions in Excel, what they do, and where they can be used in a financial model.
