26. Financial Modeling
Dynamic Financial Modeling
Simple financial models have limited power to explore the seemingly endless
variety of what ifs that arise when a board begins to strategize about the future.
A dynamic model can open up many possibilities:
âąâŻ Explore complex financial systems, build and test scenarios in real time
âąâŻ Consider more options more thoroughly
âąâŻ See the consequences of ideas as they are raised
âąâŻ Integrate diverse planning efforts
âąâŻ Reduce risk
âąâŻ Make better decisions
âąâŻ Clarify financial issues for non-financial people
(board members, major donors, parents, alumni, faculty)
âąâŻ Make more compelling solicitations for major gifts
