This course has significant impact for any learner in shaping career. But already being in
a job like central bank, its huge opportunity to implement the learning directly in regular
task. The learning from this course will help in reporting, examining financial statements,
conducting effective inspection on banks & financial institutions, tracking fraud and
forgeries etc. Thus the learning will give a boost to career.

Currently I am working at Department of Financial Institute & Market- DFIM of

Bangladesh Bank. Where I have to examine monthly Risk Management Paper, Risk
Management Minutes and prepare consolidated Risk Management report also have to
scrutinize the inspection reports on 33 financial institutions. While performing regular
task now I frequently use these tools learned from this course. These tools are really
effective for a professional specially in banking sector.

So learning from this course beyond doubt going to help every professional in their career

& lively. All these learning will help performing regular task efficiently with more
prudence. Thus, in turn will help in building better governance in banking sector.
