a​ nice beginner level course for those interested in financial modelling. this course helps understand all the topics in an easy to understand way and the tests help put the things learnt to use.

Very good background to quantitative modelling. It gets a bit heavy on the mathematical formulas in places, but if you follow through, it helps cement understanding. Good speed/pace of material.
