The Monte Carlo Simulations in Excel for Risky Investments

This workshop is about understanding what is behind the Monte Carlo Simulation. First, you will find out who is using simulations and for what purposes (risk analysis, operations, investments.) The next part is about having fun applying simulations - rolling dice on a spreadsheet. Once you understand how it is done we can go into a couple of projects. One project is when we simulate a four years budget for 200 times (800 years.) The workshop will have other examples of Monte Carlo simulations.Areas CoveredRandom number generationsRisk analysis applied to investmentsWho Should AttendFinance professionals and studentsWhy Should You AttendProfessionals, students, and other Excel users interested in understanding and applying Monte Carlo simulations using Excel.
