This well-forged edition offers practitioners important insights and methods to develop models that are useful to the key decision-makers, free of errors, and maintainable for the future by implementing industry standards in model development. Few books in financial modelling even touch on the importance of technique. This book offers a compelling guide to ensure model competence." --John C.

Practical Financial Modelling, 3e is a book on model development and model assurance. It enhances the modelling process by emphasizing controls and checks for accuracy and reliability. New content on validation and verification, model use and sensitivity analysis is presented alongside a modelling methodology that underpins the various proprietary standards used in financial modelling today. It provides more details than other books and yet is general enough for applying its methodology to many applications. This book isn’t just about the details of building cash flow models, it’s about building better cash flow models.
