Curriculum
The Investment Banking Training by The WallStreet School is designed to provide delegates with a comprehensive understanding of investment banking techniques, equity research, and capital markets. Designed by Investment bankers and industry experts, this programme plugs the gap between theoretical concepts learned during academic degrees/diplomas and on-the-job application of those concepts.
The curriculum of the workshop is so designed to make delegates super proficient in Excel and they develop the skillsets which will put that in a good stead as a Finance Analyst in a consulting, equity research or an Investment Banking profile. For anybody to efficiently build financial and business models, one needs to take the excel bull by the horns by learning the basics content and then graduating to advanced level content. The basics of excel will ensure learning and applying fo relevant financial formulas, navigating in the model, scaling up speed and starting to creating, formulating and conceiving own formula in given situations. That is how we start
- Using keys instead of mouse in excel
- Sorting Data and using advanced filters to overcome the limitations of filters
- Cell Freeze, Row Freeze, Column Freeze
- Using conditional formatting in excel and making the data look more meaty
- Linkages used for Financial Modeling
- Simple excel formulas as sum, product, division, multiplications, paste special, oncatenate

The focus is to effectively and efficiently utilize Microsoft Excel for data analysis. These include and are not limited to
- Combination of multiple functions in a problem as Vlook +Match, Index+Match, VlookUp and If

- Charting:
For most of us, charting means making a bar chart or a pie chart for anything and everything. All the meaty results are most effective when they are presented with the right set of charts. What chart to use for a particular data,that is something we teach through charting workshops. And what more, since you have become comfortable with excel, you learn dynamic chart making. These include
- Rules of creating a bar chart

Power Point Training:
That we are very comfortable making a power Point, is sort of an illusion which most of us have because once in a lifetime whether in school or college or in MBA degree or for any presentation, we have dirtied our hands with PPTs.

Candidates learn the art of following
- How every slide should pass a 20 second test
- How one has to make meaty slides with fact based representation, proper sourcing of data, effective charts and aesthetic and visual appeal of a ppt
- How the analysed data has to be presented in a structured and phased manner

These concepts are absolutely critical to mastering any financial and valuation analysis. How to integrate the financial segments. We answer all the rarely answered “WHY” questions—”why do we do this, why do we do that”—instead of answering: “well, just because” or “that’s the way it’s always been done”, we actually clearly and easily explain the logic of why and how not just the what.

Trading Comps is a pricing technique. It is one of the most widely valuation techniques by investment bankers and finance professionals. Under this we would learn how to build a detailed trading comps right from the selection of peers to the analysis of final output. We would also understand how to compare and use these multiples as a valuation technique, what could the possible reason for differences in the multiples and how to tackle those differences etc.

- Impact of convertible securities – options, warrants, RSUs, convertible bonds, convertible preference shares

Precedent transaction/ deal comps is a variant of trading comps. It is one of three major valuation techniques used by the investment bankers (other than trading comps and DCF valuation). The basic premises of this technique is deal value (i.e. what multiples were offered for other transactions in the past under similar purchasing conditions). Under this technique, we would learn how to calculate transaction multiples, how these multiples are different from one we calculated under trading comps, under what situation this valuation technique is appropriate to apply etc.

- Under what valuation situation transaction comp multiples are appropriate to use
Under DCF valuation technique, we try to attach value to the business/asset based upon its fundamentals. This technique is entirely different from relative comps technique as in case of DCF valuation we attempt to find value of asset whereas in relative valuation we try to find price of the asset (driven by demand and supply) which may be substantially different from its fundamental value found under DCF valuation. Under this packet of valuation, we would try to find value of the asset based upon its fundamentals; cash flows, risk, growth, etc.
- Projection of detailed free cash flows of the company
- What should be the ideal projection period for the target company
- How to factor various risks in projections and cash flows

- Different ways of calculating beta and their implication on WACC and DCF value
Treatment of options differently in DCF valuation from how we treated them in trading comps and why?
Merger model is prepared to find the impact of transaction (merger/acquisition) on the future earnings of the remaining shareholders in the new company after the transaction. Under this we try to find the short term and long term impact of transaction on the future earnings of shareholders (i.e. whether the future earnings of the shareholders would increase or decrease due to this acquisition). Under this we would learn:
- How to build a fully integrated merger model to calculate whether the transaction is accretive or dilutive to the shareholders
- Impact of stock deal or cash deal on the future earnings of the shareholders of the company
