In this six-week programme, participants will delve into corporate finance, capital structure, taxation, and bankruptcy, while analysing the trade-offs of funding by evaluating debt versus equity and its impact on investment project valuation. By examining current industry debates and reviewing critical expert insights, leaders will explore key topics transforming finance practices in today's fast-paced world, including corporate governance and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors. Upon completion of the programme, your organisation will be able to leverage finance as part of its executive toolkit to make more informed and strategic decisions, ultimately enhancing overall business performance.

    We have been working with LEORON for the past two years and will be working with them again this upcoming year. The programs they delivered were fruitful and exciting and our organization has received positive feedback from the participants. What our organization aims to do is to provide at no cost training for all the private sector employees so that they may benefit from our offered programs in Innovation and Professional development. Leoron has helped us achieve this goal. We look forward to continuing this service and wish them the best of luck. Regards,
