Financial Modelling
Financial modelling is like creating a “money map” for businesses. It’s all about using data and Excel wizardry to predict a company’s future financial performance. Think of it as building a blueprint that helps in making big decisions like investments, expansions, or even survival strategies.
It’s not just about numbers, it’s about storytelling through data. You’re diving into crafting scenarios, and giving life to financial insights that shape the future of a company. Bonus? It’s a skill that’s always in demand, whether you’re eyeing investment banking, equity research, or the next big startup!
