• Changes to the standard are considered and made after consultations with a moderation board that is made up of several industry experts.

Transparent

A transparent model is as simple as it can be and does not

have unnecessary complexity to obfuscate its functionality

and can be used by anyone with some modelling

experience, not just its creator.

Structured A structured model has been built consistently and ensures

that form follows function.

Appropriate An appropriate model reflects key business decisions without

unnecessary detail.

Flexible A flexible model meets its objectives and can be

maintained, re-purposed and updated as needed.

EXPERIENCE

We run an organization that

interacts very closely with its

clients and so it’s very

important to us that we find

the right people for the

organization.

We get a lot of people who

are truly qualified, on paper.

At a minimum, a majority of

applicants have the right

experience.

That’s why everything in the

application process matters;

we form an opinion of the job

applicant during every single

interaction.

We then only hire the best fit

for close work with our clients.

This self-paced financial modelling course is aimed at equipping learners with skills to make forecasts and valuing companies based on historical information. Taught using the FAST Standard of financial modelling, this course will make sure that learners build a robust financial model with skills from the course being easily transferable to different modelling challenges.

Forecasts will cover revenue lines, costs (fixed and variable), fixed assets, financing, equity, working capital, and taxation leading to integration in three

core financial statements – Income Statement, Statement of Financial Position, and Statement of Cash flows. The financials are then used to create a valuation of the entity.

During the course, participants also gain an insight into how to tailor the outputs of the model to end users, interpret the results and run sensitivities, as well as perform some degree of testing to reduce the incidence of modelling errors. Discussions are also held on various aspects of valuations and these are incorporated in the financial model.
