About Breaking Into Wall Street

Want to Land Lucrative Positions at Investment Banks, Private Equity Firms, and Hedge Funds?

Then you need to know financial modeling like the back of your hand. Just one problem: other training companies might teach you the formulas, but they don’t teach you how to use the financial models in real life.

Breaking Into Wall Street^TM offers a completely different approach by teaching you how to use financial modeling to make investment recommendations and advise clients – in other words, you learn how to put all those Excel files to use in real life, the same way you do when working in the finance industry.

Our courses are all based on case studies where you have to advise a client, make an investment recommendation, or decide whether or not a deal makes sense – and the coverage is global, including companies and assets across the six inhabited continents.

Our proven training covers:

Investment Banking Pitch Books
Hedge Fund Stock Pitches
Equity Research Reports
Project Finance Equity and Debt Analysis
Growth Equity Investment Recommendations
Accounting and 3-Statement Modeling
Merger Models and Leveraged Buyout (LBO) Models
Private Equity Investment Recommendations
Deal Recommendations to Clients
Real Estate Deal and Financing Analysis
Venture Capital Cap Tables and Analysis
Valuation and Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Analysis
Credit and Fixed-Income Analysis
And more…

We teach you everything you need to know to win interviews and job offers at banks, PE firms, and hedge funds, and then succeed once you’re on the job. Students who have invested in our training have achieved significant results – which you can read about right here.
