Earlier this month CITADEL ADVANTAGE was pleased to present, in conjunction with INTERFIMA, a 2-day International Trade Finance program in downtown Athens. The program was presented by Citadel Advantage's Richard Barr.

Below are photos of delegates from the banking and corporate industry that participated in the workshop

"Risk Management - Focus on Fraud" Athens - April 23rd & 24th

This going to sound like the beginning of a great joke but what do 4 male Ukrainians (a self-employed web designer and three from the building industry), 1 unemployed female Ukrainian, 2 male Latvian supermarket workers, 1 unemployed female Latvian, 1 unemployed male Estonian and 1 unemployed male from Belarus have in common? Give up? They made up a cybergang that robbed bushels of money from European banks.

Who are Kweku Adoboli, John Rusnak, Wang Liming and Liang Shihan? And what do they have in common? They’re just a few bank employees who defrauded their banks. Understanding Fraud & managing the risks are critical to your bank’s survival. For details CLICK HERE.

"Ops Risk Management for Non-Risk Managers" Athens - April 19th & 20th

First there was the crisis in 2007. Now there’s the sovereign crisis closer to home. With these economically trying times here in Europe, many banks have cut back on training in an attempt to cut costs. While understandable, that may be a costly mistake; And when it comes to managing operations risk, it most certainly is. In these dynamic times, understanding operations risk is critical to your bank’s survival. Too many banks in Europe will fail, simply because they didn’t understand the importance of managing their operations risk. That’s why Citadel Advantage is offering this much needed 2-day workshop in Athens. For details CLICK HERE.
