    Description
    What is the aim of this course?

    During many consulting projects, you will have to analyze financial statements (balance sheet, income statement, cash flows) and draw conclusions about a specific company. This is especially true during due diligence, strategic projects, and turn-arounds. Financial analyses require a relatively good understanding of finance and accounting. Business Analysts and Management Consultants that did not study Finance or Business tend to have some problems with navigating this area. This course will help you overcome this problem. Those of you who have finished Business School or Economics will find here a great refresher with a lot of practical tips on how to do certain analyses during a consulting project.

    This course will help you drastically improve your knowledge and skills in finance and accounting. It is designed for people who are or want to become management consultants, business. In the course you will learn 5 main things

    How to read financial statements such as a balance sheet, an income (profit & loss) statement, cash flows

    How to draw conclusions from financial statements

    Main principles of accounting

    How to analyze financial indicators

    How to estimate the value of the firm / do valuation

    I will NOT teach you everything about finance & accounting because it is simply not efficient (and frankly you don’t need it). This course is organized around the 80/20 rule and I want to teach you the most useful (from a business analyst/consultant perspective) things that will enable you to understand the financial data and analyze them.

    This course is based on my 15 years of experience as a consultant in top consulting firms and as a Board Member responsible for strategy, performance improvement, and turn-arounds in the biggest firms from Retail, FMCG, SMG, B2B, and services sectors that I worked for. I have carried or supervised over 90 different performance improvement projects in different industries that generated in total 2 billion of additional EBITDA. On the basis of what you will find in this course, I have trained in person over 100 consultants, business analysts, and managers who now are Partners in PE and VC funds, Investment Directors and Business Analysts in PE and VC, Operational Directors, COO, CRO, CEO, Directors in Consulting Companies, Board Members, etc. On top of that my courses on Udemy were already taken by more than 124 000 students including people working in EY, Walmart, Booz Allen Hamilton, Adidas, Naspers, Alvarez & Marsal, PwC, Dell, Walgreens, Orange, and many others.

    I teach through case studies, so you will have a lot of lectures showing examples of analyses, tools that we use. To every lecture, you will find attached (in additional resources) the Excels as well as additional presentations, materials shown in the lectures so as a part of this course you will also get a library of ready-made analyses that can, with certain modification, be applied by you or your team in your work.

    Why have I decided to create this course?

    Analyzing the financial situation of the firm is a fundamental skill in consulting. It helps you understand the current situation of the firm, identify problems, and estimate potential savings. Many Management Consultants and Business Analysts did not finish Business Schools and sometimes struggle with some financial analyses. This sometimes puts them at a disadvantage and makes it difficult for them to get promoted. On top of that, many consultants and analysts that did study finance & accounting at university/college have forgotten some things.

    Therefore, I have decided to create this course that will help students understand or refresh the essential elements of finance and accounting. The course will give you the knowledge and insight into real-life case studies that will make your life during a consulting project much easier. Thanks to this course, you will know how to understand financial statements, analyze them and draw conclusions from them. You will also master the basics of valuation.

    To sum it up, I believe that if you want to become a world-class Management Consultant or Business Analyst you have to have a pretty decent understanding of finance and accounting. That is why, I highly recommend this course to Management Consultants or Business Analysts, especially those that did not finish business school or Economics.

    In what way will you benefit from this course?

    The course is a practical, step-by-step guide loaded with tones of analyses, tricks, hints that will significantly improve your knowledge of finance and accounting. There is little theory – mainly examples, case studies with a lot of tips from my own experience as well as other notable examples worth mentioning. Our intention is that thanks to the course you will learn

    How to read financial statements such as a balance sheet, an income (profit & loss) statement, cash flows

    How to draw conclusions from financial statements

    Main principles of accounting

    How to analyze financial indicators

    How to estimate the value of the firm / do valuation

    You can also ask me any question either through the discussion field or by messaging me directly.

We will also calculate them for Amazon so you can see how to use those ratios in practice.
