OVERVIEW
This highly interactive, unconventional program in finance is designed to introduce you to the world of finance, its main actors, language, and… hidden agendas. The program will show the link between economic value and market valuation, ex-post financial analysis and ex-ante decision-making, the difference between “good vs. bad” and “cheap vs. expensive” companies. The ethical side of finance will also be explored.
Participants will learn how valuable are their companies or for-profit or non-profit organizations if they want to sell them on the market. No prior knowledge of finance is required. Those attending the program are encouraged to bring their own financial experience, no matter how small they think it is, as well as their own view on what finance is and does, no matter how far from professional finance they are.
