Support for FM215 Principles of Finance II at LSE

Our tutoring for FM215 is designed to make the module feel more manageable. Sessions can focus on clarifying lecture material, rebuilding foundations, working through problem sets, case work, modelling tasks and exam preparation, and developing a clearer strategy for revision and assessed work. The aim is to help students understand the module deeply enough to apply the material independently, not just memorise model answers.

Common Challenges

Students often struggle with:

  • understanding the connections between investment decisions and payout policy in the wider financial decision
  • applying capital structure accurately and interpreting taxes and bankruptcy costs in calculations, cases or modelling tasks
  • explaining assumptions, risk and financial implications rather than relying on memorised formulas
  • building a clear revision plan when the module starts to feel cumulative
