Product Information

Ratio analysis is often reduced to calculations with little meaning attached to them. This session shifts the focus from formulas to understanding. Delegates will learn how to interpret ratios in context and use them to identify financial stress, inefficiencies, and risk. The session explains liquidity, profitability, efficiency, and solvency ratios in simple, practical terms, focusing on what they actually tell you about a business. Designed for professionals who analyse financial statements or advise clients, this session helps turn ratios into useful decision tools. By the end of the session, delegates will be able to use ratio analysis to ask better questions, give clearer explanations, and add real value beyond basic reporting.
