F9 wider listening: Essentials of Corporate Financial Management podcast

Sometimes you want to fit some studying but can’t (or don’t want to) read or write. You could be commuting to work, or just be exhausted after a day of it. It may be worth fitting in an audio podcast to your study plan in such instances. This is definitely a more passive way of studying and cannot replace proper studying, but can be used as a good supplement.

Wider listening
For F9 Financial Management, the podcast Essentials of Corporate Financial Management is very useful. The content in many places overlaps with the F9 syllabus and the episodes follow a logical order. Perhaps enticingly, they are short episodes (about 10 minutes each), so they are easily digestible in short chunks when you only have a few minutes of spare time. The podcast is meant to accompany the Pearson textbook of the same name; however I do not believe this needs to be purchased in order to find value in the freely available podcast. The textbook is well reviewed so it might be worth consideration, however it would appear to be at the same intellectual depth as the ACCA F9 syllabus and so one might be better off sticking to the approved learning provider texts.

If you have access to Apple podcasts, definitely download/subscribe to this one.
