Supplemental FARIN Foresight Training
Learning Objectives:
This training session will be led by Gary Heidemann and will provide the intermediate user with the model skills to take the next step in forecasting Interest Rate Risk. The goal is to give each participant a solid understanding of the Foresight model so they will have a better understanding of the Asset/Liability Management process.
Program Content:
The course provides a more in depth look at modeling Income at Risk and Value at Risk for the users that have been running Foresight for a minimum of three to six months. Discussions will center on effective use of rate environments, prepayment tables, lagging drivers, row match rules, target methods and market value. The reporting features of the model will be used to review how best to forecast Income and Value at Risk in your institution. The discussion will center on rolling the model forward and the processes that need to be accomplished each month. Application time is used to review your model and answer your specific questions with one of our experienced staff members.
Program Prerequisites:
This program is designed for Foresight model users. Program Level: Intermediate to Advanced
Advanced Preparation:
Minimum 3 to 6 months of actively using the Foresight model after the initial training.
