This training is designed to comprehensively cover the valuation of banks and financial institutions. The programme will include short lecture sessions and case study examples.

Delegates will use Excel-based models for valuation exercises. This will enable delegates to fully understand the implications of decision-making in terms of bank performance analysis: giving them a better appreciation of bank performance ratios and analysis that impact valuation.

  • A detailed focus on the valuation of financial institutions
  • Coverage of several different valuation methodologies
  • Copious case study examples from the real world
  • Practical valuation exercises
  • An opportunity to discuss valuation issues with an experienced practitioner
  • An interactive financial institution valuation training using Zoom, or delivered at a location of your choosing

Our financial institution valuation training will be divided into short sessions to maintain attention span during the training. We will use the Slido (a polling app) and Mural (a virtual whiteboard app) applications during the training to encourage interaction and discussion which is important when using online training methodologies.

All of the financial institution valuation course material will be provided before the session for delegates to download: they will be needed during the sessions. Delegates will be divided into small groups for practical exercises on valuation fundamentals and the breakout function in Zoom is particularly useful in this regard which allows the use of group work in a similar manner to what would be used during a normal face-to-face training session. The essence of the training methodology is to ensure both a practical and rigorous delivery of the programme material.

  • Good instructor. Well-formulating and good at organising. Many practical examples.
