4 About FAST Standard The FAST Standard was created through a collaborative effort of experienced financial modelling professionals from across the globe. Changes to the standard are considered and made after consultations with a moderation board that is made up of several industry experts. Flexible Appropriate Structured Transparent A flexible model meets its objectives and can be maintained, re-purposed and updated as needed. An appropriate model reflects key business decisions without unnecessary detail. A structured model has been built consistently and ensures that form follows function. A transparent model is as simple as it can be and does not have unnecessary complexity to obfuscate its functionality and can be used by anyone with some modelling experience, not just its creator. 4

8 Financial Modelling Online training Corporate Finance and Valuation Financial Modelling This self-paced financial modelling course is aimed at equipping learners with skills to make forecasts and valuing companies based on historical information. Taught using the FAST Standard of financial modelling, this course will make sure that learners build a robust financial model with skills from the course being easily transferable to different modelling challenges. Forecasts will cover revenue lines, costs (fixed and variable), fixed assets, financing, equity, working capital, and taxation leading to integration in three core financial statements Income Statement, Statement of Financial Position, and Statement of Cash flows. The financials are then used to create a valuation of the entity. During the course, participants also gain an insight into how to tailor the outputs of the model to end users, interpret the results and run sensitivities, as well as perform some degree of testing to reduce the incidence of modelling errors. Discussions are also held on various aspects of valuations and these are incorporated in the financial model. 8
