About this course

Analyze Cases, Evaluate Models, Finance is an intermediate-to-advanced course for financial professionals who need to move beyond model creation to master the critical art of model auditing. In a world where a single flawed assumption can cost millions, this course equips you with a systematic framework to ensure financial models are accurate, defensible, and reliable. Across three modules, you'll first deconstruct cases like WeWorks to pinpoint the red flags and flawed assumptions behind valuation disasters. Then, you'll get hands-on with a professional QA checklist, learning to audit a model’s structural integrity and logical consistency. Finally, you will synthesize these skills by performing a complete model revision and using data storytelling to present your findings persuasively. You'll prove your mastery in a final project, delivering a full critique and revision of a flawed retail-chain model to a professional standard.

What you will learn

  • Create a critique and revision of a complex financial model by analyzing case studies and applying a systematic quality assurance framework.
