HDBF – Financial Management and Treasury Operations

The Financial Management and Treasury Operations course at the Higher Diploma in Banking and Finance (HDBF) level is designed to provide students with an advanced understanding of how financial decisions and treasury functions contribute to the overall performance, stability, and profitability of financial institutions.

Building on the foundational knowledge from the DABF level, this course integrates both strategic financial management concepts and practical treasury operations that are essential for modern banking professionals. Students will gain insights into how banks manage liquidity, control financial risks, handle investments, and ensure compliance within the rapidly evolving financial environment.

The course covers critical areas such as asset-liability management (ALM), fund management, foreign exchange operations, capital adequacy, and risk mitigation techniques. It also explores the role of treasury in profitability management, interest rate risk, and liquidity management, enabling students to understand the interconnection between financial management and treasury functions in ensuring institutional sustainability.

Through real-world case studies, problem-solving exercises, and analytical discussions, students will develop practical skills to make informed financial and investment decisions while maintaining regulatory and ethical standards in the banking sector.
