*Intensive, Hands-on Practical Workshop* For financial models to be truly useful they should be properly structured in that they should be easily readable, the logic should be easy to follow and, very importantly, they should be structured to prevent errors occurring. Often a model “dies” when the modelling incumbent leaves the company and a new modeller takes over, and this is generally because the new modeller cannot follow the logic of the model. Excel is the de facto modelling language today, so in order to get the best out of a model a modeller would be wise to have a good understanding of the functions in Excel, what they do, and where they can be used in a financial model.
