About Me
Eleven years ago to this day I decided to start something that would help people who wanted to understand and learn finance, learn finance. Eleven years later in a long forgotten folder, a dusty database yielded 150 concepts we had written for an online education venture that died in May 2001 and was buried in June 2002.
While the content and the examples posted here are quite dated (turn of the century and the boom years of 1999-2000) the covered concepts, applications and tools are still very relevant. Course material is broken down into bite sized concepts and topics and giant application oriented cases. I spent the last 12 months thinking about taking out the time to do this one day since I still remember the joy and pain of my first corporate finance course.
If you are new to this start with the first course on Corporate Finance, followed by Ratio Analysis, follwed by Leverage or the Credit Analysis course, followed by the Credit Process course.
To learn more about the sequence of events that led to these pages being written and uploaded here, follow the white rabbit.
I was introduced to Finance when I built my first financial model in Lotus 123 at the tender age of 14 years. Since then, spread sheets, financial models and financial analysis have been the main stay of my work. For a more interesting history of all the mean and nasty thing I have been upto take a look at me and myself as well as my blog that acts as my primary ranting and blood pressure control mechanism.
Over the last 17 years, I haved worked as an actuary, built and implemented insurance, risk and treasury systems as part of my day job, valued derivative contracts and taught in Karachi, Dubai and Singapore on the Alchemy, Consultnomics and S P Jain platforms.
If you would like to read more from my desk, I am a regular contributor at Oil Insights, Desi Back to Desh, Learning Finance and Startup Insights where I follow Oil, living in Pakistan and starting up as an entrepreneur.
