You will understand how to interpret and analyze key financial indicators through comparative analyses. Learn to use a S.W.O.T. analysis to create peer groups and illustrate why terms and ratios are applicable to some companies and not others. 

During this session we will take a look at real-world practical examples to provide context to specific financial concepts discussed during this engaging presentation.  Knowing how to interpret these concepts will provide the missing link to understanding the numbers behind the numbers and a deeper insight into financial decisions and discussions taking place around us. You will be provided with a glossary of popular terms used in the finance industry as well.
