Confessions of Financial Statements udemy course

Be An Informed & Confident Investor

This course is for all those who wish to unravel the mysteries of financial statements.

No prior knowledge of finance is required. You must have a hunger for knowledge & a keen interest in becoming an informed & confident investor.

You will understand the power of financial analysis, as well as its limitations.

In Section I, we begin with an Overview of Financial Statements. This is followed by a discussion on Financial Ratios & a Quiz.

Section II covers the DuPont Model, a powerful tool for analysis & strategic decision-making. It also highlights the concept of Sustainable Growth Rate.

A Final Quiz rounds it up. There is an Assignment at the end to increase your confidence.

Section III contains extra material & some of my published articles. I shall add to this as & when there is something new to share with you.

I am grateful to all my publishers for their trust, & for their generosity in sharing knowledge.

By the end of this course you should be able to make sense of financial statements - without fear.You will learn to identify areas which require further examination.

Using this information you should be ready to independently assess the financial health of companies; & be discerning in your choice of investments. It is your hard-earned money; you must treat it with respect.

A note of caution: Ratios are tools, not medicines.

Three ideas to wrap-up:

*** Be confident, but cautious

*** Always keep learning (especially from your mistakes)

*** Practice, practice, practice

Thank You.
