Master corporate finance with generative-AI tools—tailored for Canadian college and university learners

Super-charge your understanding of Canadian corporate finance by pairing time-tested theory with hands-on AI workflows and Excel-driven models. You will dissect real TSX-listed companies, optimize capital structures, and run live-data valuations while generative-AI copilots slash modelling time and surface deeper insights. By the end, you will make board-ready decisions backed by rigorous analysis and automated scenario stress tests.

Why This AI-Powered Course Stands Out

  • AI-Enhanced Analysis from Day One
    Use ChatGPT-style agents to scrape SEDAR+ filings, clean the data, and produce ratio dashboards and credit red-flags in seconds.

  • Excel-Heavy, Outcome-Driven Modelling
    Build three-statement and DCF models, embed Python or Power Query automations for live feeds, and validate with AI-assisted Monte Carlo simulations.

  • Canadian Context with Global Relevance
    Explore how IFRS nuances, Canadian tax rules, and TSX disclosure standards shape valuation, while extracting lessons applicable worldwide.

  • Capital-Budgeting Deep Dive
    Master NPV, IRR, payback, and profitability index, then let AI scenario generators test commodity shocks, interest-rate spikes, or carbon-pricing changes.

  • Career-Ready Deliverables
    Graduate with a polished WACC dashboard, a full capital-budgeting model, and an AI-augmented equity valuation report you can showcase in interviews.

Module-by-Module Journey with Practical AI Touchpoints

  1. Introduction to Corporate Finance – Clarify firm goals, governance, and agency conflicts. Prompt GPT to critique executive-compensation structures and propose governance tweaks.

  2. Financial Statement Analysis – Drill into quality of earnings and trend ratios. Deploy an AI bot that benchmarks TSX filings against peer medians.

  3. Time Value of Money – Master discounting and compounding; generate custom prompt-driven calculators that explain each step inside Excel or Python.

  4. Bond Valuation and Interest Rates – Examine yield curves and duration; have an LLM write a macro that pulls current Bank of Canada data and plots it automatically.

  5. Risk and Return – Apply CAPM and multi-factor models; use vector databases and AI search to surface comparable betas and factor loadings instantly.

  6. Cost of Capital – Calculate WACC, flotation costs, and project hurdles; let AI flag outlier assumptions and run a rapid-fire sensitivity grid.

  7. Stock Valuation – Perform DCF and relative valuation; prompt GPT to draft a plain-English valuation memo complete with summary graphics.

  8. Capital Budgeting – Evaluate NPV, IRR, and payback; generate AI-driven stress-test scenarios that reflect FX swings, regulatory shifts, or ESG costs.

  9. Capital Structure – Balance leverage and flexibility; use Copilot to model recapitalizations, covenant headroom, and debt-service coverage ratios.

  10. Dividend Policy – Debate residual theory and clientele effects; have the LLM assemble a board briefing on payout revisions with pros, cons, and peer-group data.

  11. Short-Term Financial Planning – Build rolling cash budgets and maturity-matching schedules; let AI create a dynamic 13-week liquidity forecast that updates with live inputs.

Student Requirements

  • A laptop or PC running Excel 2019 or Microsoft 365 (Windows or macOS).

  • Optional Python (Anaconda) if you wish to explore deeper automations—setup videos included.

  • No prior coding experience needed; all AI prompts and scripts are provided step-by-step.

Key Takeaways

  • Complete fluency in Canadian corporate-finance fundamentals—from time value of money through dividend policy.

  • A personal AI tool-belt of prompt frameworks, reusable code snippets, and dashboards you can adapt on the job.

  • Portfolio-worthy deliverables: a capital-budgeting model, a WACC analysis, and a TSX equity valuation report backed by AI insights.

  • Strategic perspective on how governance standards, tax rules, and capital-market trends uniquely influence Canadian corporate decisions.
