COURSE : CERTIFIED TREASURY AUDITING PROFESSIONAL
Course Overview	The central position of the treasury in the running of any company makes it essential that its activities are conducted efficiently and under control. Any failure in the treasury’s activities could have serious repercussions for the business as a whole.Secondly, the values of some of the transactions going through the treasury are significant. Any such payments need to be initiated and authorised within strict controls.Thirdly, some of the treasury’s work is highly specialised and quite complex, particularly in the trading of derivatives and foreign exchange, for example. Too many companies have been caught out by failures in their internal processes and so they need to be audited more tightly.Finally the increasing use of technology has made error and fraud easier to commit and harder to detect. Internal audits are one check on the control and monitoring procedures for such technology.
