What our students are saying
"I recommend this course to everyone who wants to succeed in a private equity or M&A career. I've taken other finance courses but this hands-on seminar was different. It had an impact. It gave me all the necessary tools, and I hit the ground running when I started my role at Silver Lake. Tips provided by Nik were both practical and to the point."
Thibaut Laberty, Senior Associate at Latour Capital (ex-Five Arrows, Silver Lake, PAI Partners & JP. Morgan)
"Nikhil’s Private Equity Modelling Course is top-notch, on all fronts. Nikhil is an expert at it. Nikhil was able to simplify tasks that I thought were complicated and make them understandable in easy, manageable pieces. Nikhil’s course covered everything that I needed to know for my Investment Banking Case-Study interviews. My interviewers were surprised at how particular I was with formatting and formulae constructions, skills that I learned during Nikhil’s course. I can’t thank Nikhil enough for his help and I would recommend his course to all those who aspire to work in the Investment Banking Industry."
Rahul Bhalla, Investment Banking Associate at Deutsche Bank (ex-Société Générale)
"I have been very pleased to follow Nik’s financial modelling course. Thanks to his course, I have learned how to build from scratch the financial model of a listed company, how to use all the main valuation methods (DCF, LBO, etc.), and to become more efficient at Excel. Making the bridge between theoretical lessons given at university and competencies expected at highly competitive financial industry, I have managed to outperform my peers during my summer internship at GIC and to be enrolled as a Private Equity trainee at Rothschild & Co. Definitely one of my best courses ever!"
Clément Commaret, Real Estate Private Equity Associate at Goldman Sachs (ex-Tikehau Capital, Rothschild & Co, GIC, L Catterton)
"I thoroughly enjoyed the Private Equity Modelling course provided by Leap Finance Academy. The course is designed to be thorough and exhaustive, covering all the tools needed for valuing a company at a Private Equity firm. The instructor during my course, Nik, provided detailed and step-by-step explanations for each section (Business plan, financing, tax, etc.) and also provided several tricks to speed up Excel calculations and avoid mistakes. Despite the extensive number of learning hours, the course structure made it extremely easy to follow!"
Roshni Ohri, Private Equity Associate at Marguerite (ex-EY, KPMG)
"Nik was my tutor in private equity modelling, arguably the most practical course I have taken. The course provided a rare glimpse of an analyst’s quantitative work at top tier investment firms and the X factor that differentiates the top performers. Thanks to his effective teaching and industry insight, I passed all modelling tests at Macquarie, Goldman Sachs and Veolia."
Calvin Tse, Investment Banking at Lazard
"I followed Nik’s Financial Modelling & Private Equity Analyst class, during the very singular period of lockdown. Despite the added complexity of delivering a technical class through Zoom to more than 50 students, he managed to adapt and provide extremely useful content for both beginners and more experienced users. As this class combined complex model building methods together with best formatting practices he had gathered during his career, it proved very useful in my starting corporate finance career and I am convinced it will for a long time. Thanks again."
Dorian Chambaud, Private Equity at Sagard MidCap (ex-Five Arrows Growth Capital, One Peak Partners, PwC)
