Background:
In 2019 we created a Swedish finance course — Finanskursen.
Finanskursen has since reached around a thousand students, including stock analysts and employees from financial institutions. From this experience of teaching lots of people about the investing process and receiving plenty of feedback, we have learned what they struggle with the most, what they find most important to learn, and so on..
We have used this experience to create The Investing Course.
