Testimonials

Read what previous participants say about this programme

The programme was highly valuable as there was an excellent mix of theory and practical use of the materials. As CEO of a local bank, I’m responsible for the integral management of the bank and specifically for the SME and corporate advice portfolios. These teams deal with financial and strategic issues including acquisition, mergers, sales and buy ins. The excellent RSM programme consists of intense weeks, with plenty of deep dives and with a great diverse group. I learned not only a theoretical foundation, but also practical tools and models and a great network of peers to work with

Jelmer J. Algra, CEO of Rabobank Leeuwarden Noordwest Friesland

I had basic knowledge of finance from a former job as strategy and management consultant at a bank. I’m now involved in my organisation’s corporate finance cases. RSM’s valuation programme gave me the knowledge how to valuate companies – big and small. I learned the variables that have the most impact on the value, and how you can valuate a fast-growing (tech) company. In addition to the in-depth-knowledge of finance, thanks to Marc Goedhart, I also enjoyed learning from a group of true professionals who work mostly within the SME segment
