Analyze Financial Models: Scenarios and Sensitivity

Analyze Financial Models: Scenarios and Sensitivity is an intermediate course designed for financial analysts, FP&A professionals, and investment professionals who need to move beyond static financial models. In today's volatile economic environment, relying on a single forecast is risky. This course provides the tools to build resilient, dynamic models that account for uncertainty, empowering you to make strategic decisions with confidence. You will learn to systematically stress-test your financial models using scenario and sensitivity analysis in Microsoft Excel. Through expert-led screencasts and hands-on activities, you will master tools such as the Scenario Manager, build one- and two-way data tables, and create powerful visualizations, such as tornado charts, to pinpoint which variables pose the greatest risks. The course culminates in an assignment in which you will analyze a real-world business case and deliver a concise, data-driven recommendation to stakeholders, demonstrating your ability to translate complex analysis into an actionable business strategy. Please note: A solid foundation in financial modelling concepts and proficiency in using Microsoft Excel for financial analysis are required to get the most out of this course.
