Financial modelling,
taught without shortcuts
Gilmavuret is an online education resource focused specifically on financial modelling. Started in 2023, it was built around one idea: that learning to model well requires structured practice, not just watching someone else do it.

How the curriculum is structured
Each course follows a fixed sequence: concept, worked example, independent exercise. Nothing is skipped.
The material is organised around the actual workflow a financial analyst uses. Lectures follow the same sequence a working model follows — income statement before balance sheet, operating assumptions before financing decisions. There is no generic finance theory as a prerequisite; the course assumes you can read a set of accounts.
Exercises use anonymised company data drawn from real filings rather than invented scenarios. That makes the numbers messier and the decisions more realistic — which is the point.
Each module ends with a review session that walks through common errors. These are drawn from actual submissions, not hypothetical mistakes.
-
1Three-statement model Build a linked P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow from a blank sheet. No templates provided in the first exercise.
-
2Scenario and sensitivity tools Add data tables and named scenario ranges. Learn how to make a model useful for decision-making, not just reporting.
-
3Valuation frameworks DCF and comparable company analysis built from the same base model — so the link between operations and value is visible.
