How We Approach Financial Education
Real market scenarios, practical tools, and proven frameworks that work in today's volatile environment.
Case-Based Learning
Every concept gets tested against actual market events from 2020-2024. We dissect real portfolio decisions, both successful and failed ones. Students work through the Bulgarian energy sector crisis, regional banking stress tests, and emerging market volatility patterns. No theoretical fluff—just practical analysis that mirrors what you'll face daily.
Risk-First Thinking
Before chasing returns, we teach how to spot danger. Students learn to identify overleveraged positions, correlation breakdowns, and liquidity traps before they become costly mistakes. We focus heavily on Eastern European market specifics—currency hedging, political risk assessment, and cross-border regulatory changes that can sink portfolios overnight.
What Sets Our Program Apart
Local Market Focus
Most financial education ignores emerging markets completely. We dive deep into Bulgarian equities, regional bond markets, and cross-border investment strategies that actually work in this environment. Students learn currency hedging techniques specific to the lev-euro relationship and how to navigate local regulatory frameworks.
Technology Integration
Modern analysis requires modern tools. We teach Python for financial modeling, Excel advanced functions for portfolio tracking, and Bloomberg Terminal techniques that most analysts never learn. But more importantly, we show when NOT to trust the technology and rely on fundamental judgment instead.
Behavioral Economics
Markets are driven by human psychology, especially during crisis periods. Our curriculum includes modules on recognizing cognitive biases in investment decisions, understanding herd behavior patterns, and maintaining analytical discipline when emotions run high. Essential skills for surviving market downturns.
Georgi Markov
After fifteen years managing portfolios for institutional clients, I've seen too many analysts make the same costly mistakes. Most financial education teaches theory—we teach survival skills.
I spent seven years with a Sofia-based investment firm, navigating the 2015 currency pressures and the 2020 market crash. Those experiences taught me that textbook analysis often fails when real money is on the line. Students need to understand not just how to build models, but when those models break down.
Our September 2025 cohort will be limited to 25 professionals. This keeps discussions focused and ensures everyone gets individual attention on their specific challenges.
