I recently completed the Postgraduate Certificate in Investment Banking from Stanmore School of Business, and I'm really satisfied with the experience. As a finance professional from Egypt, I was looking for a course that would give me a solid understanding of investment banking principles and practices. The course delivered on that promise, with a good balance of theoretical and practical content. I found the lectures and discussions to be engaging and informative, and the assignments helped me apply the concepts to real-world scenarios. One area for improvement could be more feedback from instructors on our assignments, but overall, I'm happy with the course and feel more confident in my abilities.
