LBO and Debt Modelling

Course overview

We are pleased to announce our NEW LBO and Debt Modelling course.

This course will develop your understanding of Leveraged Buyouts (LBOs) from a quantitative perspective, including the fundamentals behind LBOs and the processes involved in a successful deal. The fundamentals in structuring the transactions will be covered, including the choice of financial instruments, including equity, debt, or mezzanine finance. The inputs to the model will start from the operating cash flows of a business alongside some typical debt constraints, subject to a sensitivity analysis. The course will conclude with the analysis of the deal, using a value creation analysis at various exit valuations.
