Kaplan introduces financial risk course
Education provider Kaplan Professional is introducing a professional development short course on financial risk management in response to the current global markets crisis.
The course will explore ways to identify, measure and mitigate potential financial risk, and will cover legal/regulatory and risk management issues, including the purpose of the Basel II capital accord framework.
Geared towards financial services professionals, Kaplan said the course would be presented by a senior industry expert and will provide insight into sources of financial risk and how they apply to the financial services industry.
The course is available to the general public and as in house corporate training from early March this year. Attendees will be eligible for professional development points.
