Understanding Investors and Analysts

Investors and financial analysts play a critical role in shaping market perception, valuation, and investment decisions. While many organizations focus on communication and engagement activities, fewer truly understand how investors and analysts think, analyze information, and form judgments.

Developed by Boost, this course focuses on building a deep understanding of investor and analyst perspectives, their objectives, analytical approaches, information needs, and decision drivers.
