There has been a lot written about learning Financial Modeling and most of the posts are exactly the same. This post goes beyond the usual gibberish and explores practical Financial Modeling as used by Investment Bankers and Research Analysts.
In this free online training course, I will take an example of Colgate Palmolive and will prepare a full, integrated financial model from scratch. It is the task of building an abstract representation (a model) of a real-world financial situation. This is a mathematical model designed to represent (a simplified version of) the performance of a financial asset or portfolio of a business, project, or any other investment. This is a general term that means different things to different users; the reference usually relates either to accounting and corporate finance applications, or to quantitative finance applications. In simple terms, it means forecasting the future of the company or an asset by way of an Excel Model that is easy to understand, and performing scenario analysis.
In the context of our discussion, we will go over this with respect to the forecasting of the future financials of the company. This free online training course will help you forecast the financial statements of the company i.e. Income Statements, Balance Sheets and Cash Flows. The excel model is also known as an Integrated Financial Statements Model.
