www.fimodo.com – New financial modelling website
by Rickard Wärnelid at September 15 2009
I have been active on a number of financial modelling websites over the years. So far I haven’t found anything that gives me what I am looking for so with the team at Corality I decided to do something about it.
So, we have put our brains together and came up with a new website with content provided by financial modelling experts representing a range of different views.
Corality aims to improve financial modelling standards world-wide
In our job as financial model auditors we see a lot of financial models. Every now and then we see some really good financial models build with a consistent methodology, but unfortunately this doesn’t happen too often.
We find that even the worst financial modelling examples can be significantly improved with some simple pointers to what good modelling really is. Hopefully Fimodo can help improve this situation.

Who should be involved in Fimodo?
The first person to be invited was Nick Crawley, Managing Director at Navigator Project Finance. As an absolute world-leader in project finance modelling and a passionate evangelist of best-practice modelling he has been a great supporter through-out the developing phase. Two authors don’t make a collaborative website however so Fimodo needs more contributors!
If you would like to be involved, or know someone who should, drop me an email or give me a call to discuss. Please note that we are looking for real experts here, not people who are passionate but still learning - there are plenty of sites out there for this group already. We are aiming to keep the quality at a very high level to give the highest level of benefit to people following the site.
What’s in it for us?
Many people have asked me the same question - ‘why are you doing this’? The short answer is ‘the world needs this’ and it takes a relatively small effort from us at Corality to get it started.
If it leads to a successful collaboration between financial modelling experts that benefit the tens of thousands of financial modellers out there then that would certainly make me sleep well at night.
What are you waiting for - check out www.fimodo.com now!
