Treasury decisions rarely affect just one number. A funding choice can improve earnings but increase refinancing pressure; a hedge can reduce market risk while creating a margin call. This package explains those connections through a broad learning path that begins with a simple bank balance sheet and the difference between liquidity and solvency.
Develop cash forecasting, deposit behaviour, maturity concentration and funds transfer pricing before exploring regulatory liquidity measures. Continue into intraday payments, collateral, interest-rate exposure, currency funding and counterparty dependencies. Later stages address stress testing, contingency funding, internal limits and the Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process.
The offline exercises bring these ideas together in an example bank and an ALCO decision exercise. Change the asset and funding mix, inspect earnings and stressed liquidity, and consider economic-value exposure. The guide and career workbook help you explain decisions in terms of timing, currency, cash flows and risk ownership, rather than optimising one metric in isolation.
What you receive
Your downloadable package includes a 116-page professional guide with explanations, formulas and worked examples; 100 question-and-answer flashcards in digital, printable and Anki import formats; an offline lab covering 33 lessons or comparison topics; and 69 interview practice questions and applied cases with answers. An applied workbook and career toolkit add structured assignments, a capstone exercise and templates for communicating your work. A source register records the references used.
How to use the package
Read a concept, work through an example, then test your understanding in the lab. Use the flashcards for recall and the interview practice to rehearse a clear explanation. The interview material is original role-aligned practice, rather than a claim to reproduce questions from specific employers.
Who this is for
Designed for treasury and asset and liability management learners, banking risk professionals and analysts seeking a broader balance-sheet perspective. Basic financial arithmetic is sufficient to begin. The synthetic cases support judgement and discussion rather than institution-specific funding recommendations.
