TOP REVIEWS FROM CORPORATE FINANCE I: MEASURING AND PROMOTING VALUE CREATION
This course provides an effective overview of Financial analysis methods in a way that drives contextual understanding and application. Highly Recommended.
Good coverage of basic concepts of Corporate finance. Not much suitable for professionals / CA looking out for advanced knowledge as we have already studied 90% of what is being taught here.
This course helped me to learn a lot about Corporate Finance, especially about mergers & acquisitions, LBO and IRR and many more. Mainly it was thanks to the approachable method of the teacher.
Very practical and engaging topics, some question errors need addressing but minor changes to avoid wasted time on an overall fantastic course!
