Course description
Bank Applications of Derivatives
This five day School of Derivatives provides you with a thorough understanding of the derivatives market for both OTC and exchange-traded instruments. It focuses on how banks use derivatives to manage their own exposures and to provide practical solutions to their customers.
You can attend both modules of this School of Derivatives to enjoy most benefit or pick from the following modules.
Module 1: Fundamentals of Derivatives (Day 1-Day 3), is a comprehensive overview of the major classes of derivatives, distinguishing between linear and non-linear derivatives.
Module 2: Bank Applications of Derivatives (Day 4-Day 5) explains, by way of specific examples, how banks use derivatives for their own and their customer benefit. The first part looks at specific solutions for customers and focuses on the role of swaps in the primary issuance business, and managing customer FX exposures; whilst the second looks at financial engineering, and more specifically, at how derivatives can be used to reduce funding costs and/or as a means of the bank earning fees without taking a proprietary position, whilst at the same time providing investors with instruments that meet their risk/reward requirements.
