The Financial Modeling World Cup (FMWC) is an organization that hosts various Microsoft Excel–based competitions.
The FMWC held its first competition in September 2020 and currently hosts three competitions:
- Financial Modeling World Cup (FMWC)
- Microsoft Excel World Championship (MEWC)
- Microsoft Excel Collegiate Challenge (MECC)
Financial Modeling World Cup (FMWC)
= Description, Competition Format, and Scoring=
FMWC is an annual Excel modeling competition.
During the course of a season (January through November), competitors complete eight stages, and are allotted two hours over a 48-hour window to complete each stage.
Each stage contains three case studies, one to five pages long, with multiple choice or fill-in questions at the end. Contrary to what the name suggests, not all case studies are financial modeling based; Many are business modeling or data modeling based.
Stage points are available for:
- Task: Correctly solving questions on each case (Points vary by question)
- Time: Completing the stage early (10 points per minute, awarded only if the competitor has scored 900 task points)
Each stage winner's score is normalized to 1,000 points, and the score of all other competitors are normalized accordingly.
FMWC rankings and final standings are based on points scored across each competitor's top 6 stages (bottom 2 stages are dropped).
= Format Changes =
- 2020: The first of four FMWC stages started in September 2020. All stages contributed to the final standings.
- 2021: The stage count increased to twelve. The bottom two stages for each competitor were dropped from the final standings.
- 2022: The stage count decreased to eight. Case authors can not score a higher time bonus than any other player. Stage score normalization was introduced. The prize for top company was eliminated.
- 2023: For each stage, case authors may not score more points than the best player playing full-time.
- 2024: Case authors write cases for an entire stage and are automatically awarded 1,000 points for that stage. They can create cases for no more than 1 stage and are ineligible for prize money in the Stage where their cases are used.

== Last Chance Qualification ==
The 2024 Microsoft Excel World Championship was the first instance which introduced the Last Chance Qualification Round (LCQR). The LCQR was open to anyone who did not advance to the Last 32 round at an additional cost. Entry for this event was also included for attendees of the concurrent The Active Cell event held in Las Vegas. The top 40 participants at this event who weren't already qualified for the Game Day competition would join the 24 qualifiers from the Main Draw brackets for the Game Day competitions held one day before the live finals. The Last 32 from the Main Draw bracket were also permitted to play, but as they've already qualified for the Game Day competition or Live Semi-Finals, they would not take the 40 qualification spots from those not yet qualified.
The case for the Last Chance Qualification Round was called "Axel the Elf's Christmas Catastrophe!"
