About the Author
Stanislav Koretsky
Stanislav Koretsky is a finance, strategy, and M&A professional with extensive experience in financial modeling, investment analysis, valuation, strategic planning, and transaction assessment across both corporate and consulting environments.
His professional experience spans leading consulting firms and major private-sector companies in Ukraine, where he has worked across strategic analysis, investment evaluation, corporate development, and international M&A. Exposure to different industries, business models, and decision-making contexts has provided him with a practical perspective on how financial analysis can be translated into business decisions.
Throughout his career, financial modeling has been a core analytical foundation for decision-making. Whether evaluating strategic alternatives, assessing investment opportunities, analyzing acquisition targets, estimating business value, testing transaction economics, or examining the financial implications of different business scenarios, financial models have provided a structured way to connect business drivers, financial performance, cash flows, financing requirements, and value creation.
This experience shaped his view of financial modeling not as a standalone technical exercise, but as a practical framework for understanding how a business operates, testing assumptions, evaluating alternatives, and supporting informed decisions.
Financial Modeling: From Financial Statements to Valuation reflects this practical perspective. The handbook was developed to help students and practitioners understand not only how to build integrated financial models, but also how to interpret and apply them in financial analysis, valuation, investment assessment, and strategic decision-making.
