Synopsis

Focused on empirical methods and their applications to corporate finance, this innovative text equips students with the knowledge to analyse and critically evaluate quantitative research methods in corporate finance, and conduct computer-aided statistical analyses on various types of datasets. Chapters demonstrate the application of basic econometric models in corporate finance (as opposed to derivations or theorems), backed up by relevant research. Alongside practical examples and mini case studies, computer lab exercises enable students to apply the theories of corporate finance and make stronger connections between theory and practice, while developing their programming skills. All of the Stata code is provided (with corresponding Python and R code available online), so students of all programming abilities can focus on understanding and interpreting the analyses.
