5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent guide for the novice and the professional alike, 18 Nov 2001
By A Customer
This book is a must for anyone who wants to put together a financial model or a business plan. It takes the novice Exel user and helps him become an experienced business modeller through the use of clear and helpful worked examples.

As an investment banker for whom business modelling is a part of my typical working day I also found much to learn, and my modelling is more efficient and effective because of this book.

I recommend it without hesitation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 11 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This is an excellent guide to modelling. I had some experience in Excel (I had used basic functions which is probably the minimum level of experience required for this book) but no experience whatsoever of modelling - I have since used most of the techniques described to good effect.

It is also worth noting that my manager, who had considerably more experience than I did, also found this book to be thought-provoking, clearly written and incredibly useful!

5.0 out of 5 stars I bought this book a week ago and I highly recommend it, 23 Jan 2004
I am an accountant who has inherited the job of preparing next year's budgets for the asset finance arm of an investment bank. I needed to get up to speed on the latest modelling techniques. This book covers key areas well and gives some great keystroke instructions to carry out specific functions. I bought about three books on the subject and, having made some comparisons, this one is bang up to date with what is happening in the world of modelling nowadays. Thanks to the clear layout I was able to skim read it in about six hours after receiving it.

Being the helpful sort of person that I am, let me assist you further by directing you to visit www:\financialmodelling.net and downloading the example spreadsheet for £10. (Paynet takes a few days to go through before you can get the PIN number, so don't leave it until the last minute).

These two recommendations are the distillation of all my recent efforts to master financial modelling. Do this and you will be turning in some good models.
