A new method ...to learn quickly the basics of today's economics and finance. The basics, no more no less. Enough to be able to discuss easily with bankers and finance people. Enough to enjoy following daily news, to know where to find information, and feel the pleasure of progress ! |
Let's start with a QUIZ. The picture below shows three balance sheets. In fact the assets side only. The question is: Can you guess the activity of these companies ? |
This may look complex but actually it is not. Surprisingly enough, a few basic notions allow the easy understanding of each picture. The good news is that it's not very difficult to understand the logics of the balance sheet. No specific knowledge is required. More generally, it's particularly motivating for non-specialists to discover that the wall of the finance world can be easily broken. |
