Overview

Master the critical concepts underpinning the world’s biggest, most complex market.

Fixed income markets underpin the modern financial system. What happens in these markets has significant consequences for businesses, investors, and institutions: Sudden changes in the interest-rate environment, fluctuations in the inflation outlook, and shifts in central bank policy require that senior decision-makers have absolute fluency in the instruments and institutions that drive fixed income markets. Delivered by Europe’s number one department of finance, this course combines critical valuation and risk management techniques with the required institutional knowledge, allowing participants to navigate fixed-income markets with confidence and clarity.
