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 StreetTM 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

  • Private Equity Investment Recommendations

  • Hedge Fund Stock Pitches

  • Deal Recommendations to Clients

  • Equity Research Reports

  • Real Estate Deal and Financing Analysis

  • Growth Equity Investment Recommendations

  • Venture Capital Cap Tables and Analysis

  • Accounting and 3-Statement Modeling

  • Valuation and Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Analysis

  • Merger Models and Leveraged Buyout (LBO) Models

  • 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.

The investment banker training you receive from Breaking Into Wall Street is:

  • Created by experts

  • Built around your success

  • Sensibly priced

  • Backed by a no-questions-asked, money-back guarantee

  • Entertaining and easy to digest

  • Based on real companies and deals

All the training is based on case studies featuring real companies, assets, and M&A deals:

  • Excel & VBA: Walmart and Customer Due Diligence Exercise

  • Core Financial Modeling: Monster Beverage, Stadler Rail, Coles, Target, Vivendi, Steel Dynamics, Builders FirstSource / BMC Stock Holdings, Bain Capital / NichiiGakkan, Apollo / Great Canadian Gaming Corporation, and Netflix

  • Advanced Financial Modeling: EasyJet, Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Builders FirstSource / BMC Stock Holdings, SunPower / Maxeon, Fortum / Uniper, KKR / Viridor, Cars.com, and Netflix

  • VC & Growth Equity Modeling: PitchBookGPT, MuscleFrost, Antios Therapeutics, Procyon SA, Sapphire Wolf, and CyberFence (some are fictional but based on real companies)

  • Real Estate & REIT Modeling: 100 Bishopsgate (London), Jumeirah Beach Hotel (Dubai), The Lyric (Seattle), 45 Milk Street (Boston), Heritage Cyrela (São Paulo), AvalonBay (U.S.), SPH REIT (Singapore), Digital Realty / DuPont Fabros (U.S.), and Blackstone / Pure Industrial Real Estate Trust (Canada)

  • Bank & Financial Institution Modeling: Shawbrook (U.K.), KeyCorp / First Niagara (U.S.), ANZ (Australia / New Zealand), and the Philippine Bank of Communications (Philippines)

Everything is linked to corporate filings, industry research, and investor presentations, so we use real data to back up the models and tutorials. Yes, this makes our training more complex – but also truer to real life.
