Training - Commercial Banking
Essentials of Banking:
If money does indeed make the world go round, then banks are
the institutions that determine how fast it spins! Though most
of us have regular interactions with these financial
intermediaries from simple cash withdrawals at an ATM to more
formal mortgage applications, few fully appreciate how banks
are run or their impact on our economy. This course is meant
to correct both deficiencies. It is meant for professionals
new to the industry whether analysts, bankers, regulators or
laymen who want to be more sophisticated consumers of
financial products and services.
Day One will focus on some macro issues such as the money
supply, interest rates, and the role of the Bank of England or
Federal Reserve. The classic debate between Keynesians and
Monetarists will be revisited as banks are viewed as conduits
of economic policy.
Day Two will focus on banks as regulated businesses and will
distinguish between the traditional functions of commercial
and investment banks. The perspective here is less that of the
economist and more that of a director who asks, 'How is this
organization maximizing shareholder value?'
