OVERVIEW
About This Programme
The LSBF Certificate in Cash Management programme aims to bridge the perspective of cash management from both the supply and demand side of this important corporate function. Selling cash management and treasury products to clients is not straightforward for several reasons. Firstly account managers need to fully understand what instruments they have on offer but clients don’t buy instruments, they buy solutions. From a corporate client standpoint, the ability to effectively assess and manage corporate cash flow, liquidity, working capital, financial markets risks and financing can add value to corporate financial performance.
