Contenu du cours

Banking Valuation: methodologies based on peer comparison, market reference, but also more theoretical methods. A significant portion of the course will aim at explaining how 'real life' themes can impact the valuation of banks. For example how interest rate spread movements can impact share prices, or how take-over or mergers can influence valuation, or how a political crisis or tax measures can influence the valuation.
Day 1: reminder of bank's P&L, balance sheet, regulation, introduction to valuation
Day 2: peer comparison analysis vs theoretical valuation
Day 3: what can impact the valuation of banks positively or negatively
Day 4: modelling M&A in banking and case study

Évaluation

Each day of the course, students will be asked to answer a few 'real life' case studies to evaluate whether they have an understanding of the key drivers of banks' profitability and how they impact the valuation of the banks. A written final exam completes the evaluation.
