Full Description
Corporate finance is an evolving and versatile field that lies at the heart of business decision-making and economic growth. It explores how companies allocate resources, manage risks, and navigate the complexities of global financial markets. Over the years, the discipline has evolved significantly, driven by theoretical advancements, technological innovations, and the growing interconnectedness of economies worldwide. Like the Ship of Theseus, corporate finance invites us to ask whether, after so many transformations, it is still guided by the same principles as in the past, or whether we are facing an entirely new paradigm. This book brings together an array of perspectives to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the critical concepts, debates, and trends shaping corporate finance today.
Organized into four sections, the book offers a thematic exploration of corporate finance, ranging from foundational theories to emerging topics that address the challenges and opportunities faced by modern corporations. Each chapter, written by a leading expert in the field, combines theoretical insights with empirical evidence, offering a nuanced view of this subject, and will be of interest to researchers, students, and professionals in corporate finance.
