Frame, model, test, risk, present.
The method keeps finance training from becoming vague terminology. Every project has a question, model, test, risk note, and presentation.
Model
They build clean assumptions, calculations, and outputs that another person can inspect.
Test
They compare scenarios, check sensitivity, and look for claims that the model cannot support.
Risk
They explain uncertainty, incentives, bias, and the difference between analysis and advice.
Present
They turn the work into a concise memo or presentation with sources and next steps.
Reflect
Every review ends with a revision list and a stronger question.
Outcomes
