The difference between looking financially healthy and being financially healthy is where most business problems actually live. This Financial Literacy short course from Royale Business College gives non-finance professionals the tools to read financial statements, understand cash and profitability, and make financially sound decisions with confidence. Across three lessons, it is designed for capable professionals who make or influence decisions with financial consequences but were never taught to read the numbers properly.
- Reading and interpreting the three core financial statements
- Understanding why profit and cash are not the same thing
- How everyday decisions quietly destroy margin, and how to protect it
- Evaluating an investment financially before committing to it
- Reading the Financial Story of a Business The three statements, how they connect, and how to read real health.
- Cash, Profit and the Decisions That Destroy Margin Why profit and cash diverge, and how operating decisions erode margin.
- Budgeting, Investment Decisions and Financial Risk Scenario thinking, evaluating investments, and recognising financial risk.
