Course Details

In this course Cormac Lucey covers the following topics;

 

  • Where do investment markets stand now that interest rates have risen so strongly?
  • After interest rates fell between 1980 and 2020 (triggering rising asset prices), are we now in an era of rising interest rates and would that put asset prices under pressure?
  • When asset values are so high, is there anywhere safe to invest?
  • What are the most likely scenarios to unfold over the next 2-5 years?

 

 

This course will be of most interest to finance professionals working within SMEs and their professional advisers who wish to remain up to date on the corporate finance environment facing them, including:

 

  • Practising accountants who are advising clients on corporate finance matters
  • Accountants who are trusted advisors to the family business
  • Accountants in business who wish to get up to speed on corporate finance topics
