Introduction
Training course introducion / brief

Financial Modelling is an essential tool in enabling business heads to make better financial decisions within a firm. Through the simulation of the impact of variables, financial modeling allows for scenario preparation as well as capital budgeting. It makes financial statement analysis and resource easier and helps determine the cost of capital. It provides a thorough analysis of the debt/equity structure for this purpose, along with the returns expected by investors. Financial modeling is one of the most highly valued, but thinly understood, skills in financial analysis.
