Información sobre Curso

Financial modeling skills are used to forecast the financial performance of a business, or to compare it to its industry competitors. The Financial Modelling and Analysis online short course from the University of Cape Town (UCT) introduces you to the fundamental concepts required for Excel-based modeling and forecasting. On it, you’ll develop the skills to create a mathematical model in Microsoft Excel that reflects the historical, current, or projected value or financial performance of an asset, stock, or investment. Guided by expert faculty, you’ll learn to recommend strategic business decisions with the use of financial modeling, and create a discounted cash flow analysis using financial forecasts.

By the end of this course, you’ll have explored how to build revenue models, determine realistic forecast assumptions, and learned how historic data is forecast into the future.

Aimed at existing and aspiring financial analysts, this course offers critical thinking opportunities and an objective lens for which to understand the financial characteristics and interpretations of businesses. With the ability to calculate, forecast, or estimate financial numbers, you’ll hone the quantitative skills needed to excel in this field.
