Developing Your Funding and Financial Strategy

This course is aimed at those involved in financial strategy, who are looking for an overview of the theory and practice of debt, its instruments and markets. Funding is looked at firstly from the view of the borrower, and sets out reasons to borrow, and is then examined from the lender’s perspective. That understanding is used to present a robust business case which aims to secure the funding and address key lender concerns. The course covers the key sources and markets for borrowed funds and goes on to look at some implications of borrowing for risk management.
