Global Cash Flow will be offered Monday, April 14, 2014. The course teaches you how to analyze the cash inflows and outflows of an individual. Learn why an individual’s contingent risks could have a negative effect on the desired outcome: repayment of debt and compliance with the terms and conditions of the lending arrangement. Learn to identify the sources and quality of an individual’s cash flows, and their timing, so that steps can be taken to mitigate the risks presented by the intertwined interests of owners/guarantors and business. By examining simple, straight-forward scenarios, you will understand the interplay between business and personal cash flows and how this affects debt service requirements. While no single approach to global cash flow fits all situations, you will gain a solid understanding of global cash flow so that you can adapt and apply the concepts learned.
