On the commerical side, we’ll also cover tax forms, income statements, C & I business analysis, global cash flow analysis and commerical real estate analysis.

The FINPACK Training Team

FINPACK Lender Training workshops are led by the same expert FINPACK team who created the tools you use every day. Learn the rationale behind the tools and metrics and how to maximize their value from the team who designed them, have your questions answered, and find out how to get the most out of FINPACK.

The training is held in Ruttan Hall on the St. Paul campus of the University of Minnesota. Training starts Tuesday, October 11, running from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, and continues on Wednesday, October 12 from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm.
