AMT Training Reviews

AMT training is a very good experience to learn and understand fundamental corporate finance knowledge for an analyst.

nicely driven lectures followed by resourceful materials that I can work on my own. On some specific topics that I formerly did not know, it felt like I was left out from all of the participants.

This training is good value to ground everyone on key areas before we hit our desks. I would encourage that the pre-training modules are made mandatory so that everyone is grounded on the bare minimum basics and during the face to face, we can focus on details / deeper topics.

it is hard to catch up the contents

Super slow dragged out. Modeling is not deep enough. Why do we do infrastructure and project finance models if people can't get a grasp of DCF and LBO? The amount of time spent on useless information or tasks could be better used to do real power modeling and formatting from scratch. Non internship analysts have zero clue on how to start a model, which colors to use or formulas in general. Serge and the trainers are good but the content is super bad. Its like having Messi play with highschoolers and expecting the team to be great.

Apologies for invalidating the entire course - but I really think I learn best OTJ, where there is actual stake involved in getting things wrong and things stick to my head much more efficiently (both in terms of cost from UBS side and time from myside). In terms of the contents I have nothing to complain - again super knowledgeable trainers.

In my opinion, this course has been excellent. The topics covered are extremelly essential for an analyst day-to-day basis and the valuation covered has been extremely enriching and useful to learn The pace of the course has been the correct one and the trainers (Amitt and Stephen) have perfectly provided students with the knowledge to get ready for the entry at our office desks

Felix is the best! I came in with little to no background in finance or accounting. By the end of these three weeks I was able to not only understand and build a three statement model, but also pitch a company.

Fantastic training materials. Incredibly comprehensive

I think the course was excellent overall, as well as both the trainers and teaching assistants. I have no real negative feedback, except the comment that it would have been nice to use some of the UBS' templates to learn - i.e. there are some differences in how AMT models and UBS models work in some cases (assumptions, model setup, etc). I am not sure if this is something that can be changed due to the course setup and/or confidentiality issues, but generally it is not a complaint about AMT. As mentioned, the course was very effective, dynamic, interactive, interesting and most of all useful. Happy to have been a part of it.
