Breaking Into Wall Street – Master Financial Modeling for Investment Banking

Here’s How to Get a Crash Course in Accounting, Valuation, and Financial Modeling

So You Can Ace Your Investment Banking Interviews and Succeed On The Job

• Become a financial modeling pro
  158 videos, detailed written guides, Excel files, quizzes, and more
• Complete 10+ detailed global case studies
  These include both the theory and the practical applications
• Prepare for your internship or full-time job
  Gain the skills you need to “hit the ground running” on Day 1

When you’re interviewing for internships and full-time positions at investment banks, you’ll always get a few questions over and over…

• How much do you know about accounting?
• Can you walk me through a valuation?
• What happens in a merger model or LBO model when you adjust the assumptions…
• How would you describe your financial modeling skills?

When you master real-world techniques and case studies, you have a significantly better chance of landing prime jobs and internships with the top investment banks, private equity firms, and hedge funds.

The Core Financial Modeling course helps you gain all that real-world knowledge via video-based training created by investment bankers.

You’ll get a total of 158 videos – everything you need to beat the competition in interviews and get a head start before you start working. You’ll also get detailed written guides and transcripts to make it easier to scan and review the topics (and each video comes with full captions/subtitles).

MUCH MORE THAN THEORY

We base everything in the Core Financial Modeling course on what investment bankers and other finance professionals actually do in real life:

• To gain the proper background, you’ll start by learning key accounting and finance concepts with examples based on real companies, such as Target and Best Buy; you’ll learn how the financial statements link together and how you can analyze them with key metrics and ratios.
• Then, you’ll move into the “global case studies,” which include companies such as Monster Beverage (U.S.), Stadler Rail (Switzerland), Coles (Australia), Vivendi (France), Steel Dynamics (U.S.), Builders FirstSource / BMC Stock Holdings (U.S.), NichiiGakkan (Japan), Great Canadian Gaming Corporation (Canada), and Netflix (U.S.).
• In each case study, you’ll analyze a company or deal, build a model, and then make an investment recommendation or recommend the proper price and deal structure. This is the type of work you do all day in investment banking, private equity, and hedge funds.

Through these case studies, you’ll:

• Build 3-statement projection models and learn how to answer accounting questions in interviews.
• Understand Equity Value and Enterprise Value at a deep level – way beyond whatever the paid monkey army on Investopedia or ChatGPT can regurgitate!
• Value a company – from finding public comps and precedent transaction to building a DCF model to using the valuation output in a stock pitch, pitch book, and equity research report.
• Create merger models – from combining and adjusting the financial statements to evaluating accretion/dilution
• and other metrics to using the model to advise clients on their best options.
• Build LBO models, from the transaction assumptions to the debt schedules, financial projections, cash flows, and calculations of the IRR and money-on-money multiples – and the investment recommendation at the end.

The information you’ll find is so detailed and so thorough that our customers regularly come from top-ranked universities, investment banks, and business schools.
