There are many forms of “structures” in a deal such as financial structure, tax structure, legal structure, and governance structure, all of which impact how deals should be structured. This course combines the knowledge acquired in your financial accounting and corporate finance courses and applies it to structuring complex deals. This course will highlight where to look for key points of deal structure when determining the accounting and financial reporting for the transaction, and the potential impact on investor messaging. More importantly, the course is designed to be practical because it allows students to put skills learned in the course to immediate use by building financial models to evaluate how deals should be structured.
