I’ll be diving into the 4 most important metrics over the next 4 Fridays.
We’ll look at:
1️⃣ Balance Sheet Leverage
2️⃣ Cash Flow Leverage
3️⃣ Profitability
4️⃣ Capitalization
Which one matters most?
How are they calculated?

I’ll share real-life examples that answer all of these and more.

This is purely meant to help you not walk into the bank blind when it’s time to ask for money.
For my fellow bankers out there:
Which metric(s) do you weigh most heavily?
