The Analyst Exchange, a financial modeling training company, is now offering a new range of classes that focus on investment strategies relevant to the current market environment.

Analyst Exchange Founder and CEO Paul Pignataro said that The Analyst Exchange, which offers classes globally, began offering new classes because of the volatile market and changing lending conditions.

The Analyst Exchange classes instruct investors on how to analyze and forecast companies in distressed situations, how to focus on examining alternatives to lending in this environment and how to analyze distressed debt. Some classes are specific to industries including banking, health care, real estate, telecom, energy, and others.

Analysts John Serbin and Pignataro created the curriculum. Serbin, an advisor with The Analyst Exchange, has been an independent venture capitalist and business development advisor in New York, Boston, and the Silicon Valley. He has advised companies of all sizes. The experienced team of advisors at The Analyst Exchange will lead the new classes.
