Modelling and valuation courses that would help prepare for a career in IB / equity research

Hi all,

I am planning to move to London this September and would pursue an MSc Finance course. I want to be prepared for modelling and valuation concepts for IB and equity research and as such am looking for a few course that would be helpful.

Is any courses you would recommend.

There is also a very split opinion on CFA as a lot of people say that it isn’t useful for breaking into IB. What are your thoughts?

A lil bit background about me: 1.5 years of backend IB experience in India.
