Contenuti

Corporate Finance (48144) will provide students with an overview of financial decision making within a firm. The course focusses on decisions concerning how firms should raise funds in different forms, and how they should invest these funds in real assets. The first part of the course will deal with investment decisions, that is how to value investment projects and companies, while the second part will consider how to finance these investments. The final part of the course will examine how investment and financing decisions are related. In essence, the course is aimed at providing students with a thorough understanding of how financial decisions can create, destroy, or modify shareholder’s value.
