If You’re a Microsoft Excel Expert, You Could Win $5,000 USD in a Tournament
Who knew spreadsheets could pay so well?
Each month, the Financial Modeling World Cup organizes an international “financial modeling battle,” where spreadsheet-savvy contestants battle it out to win a $5,000 USD prize.
This month’s tournament will take place on June 8 and is named “888 Battle.” With Microsoft Excel as their weapon, eight contestants representing eight countries will have 40 minutes to create a financial model that solves a problem, while also answering questions from the judges. The FMWC has an open age bracket that allows competitors of all ages and backgrounds to showcase their skills, as well as a ranking system, where the current top three participants are based in the U.K., the U.S. and India.
