CFA level 2 is all about valuations but its theoretical.
If someone wants to make a financial model in excel from scratch ex: DCF, DDM, RI model, then FMVA teaches that.
Its a much more practical course.

You are my go-to channel for Finance information. I have been searching for such descriptive video for a long time and here it was. Deserves a like!

[prathameshgothankar]

I think this certification is better done as an add-on. Maybe with CFA or CA or before MBA.

[sathiramadusanka]

2 question
1. Is there an yearly subscription attached to this qualification like CFA member subscription?
2. There is a self study option and full immersion option for this qualification, do you think an experienced MBA graduate can get through the exam with self study option?
