Synopsis

Focused on real-life decision making in an international context, this text demystifies and simplifies multinational financial management in a clear, conceptual framework. The approach is to treat international financial management as a natural and logical extension of the principles and valuation framework provided by domestic corporate financial management to account for dimensions unique to international finance.

About this title

From the Publisher:

The approach of this text treats international financial management as a natural and logical extension of the principles learned in the foundations course in financial management. Thus, the book focuses on decision making in an international context. Numerous examples, both numerical and institutional, illustrate the application of these concepts and techniques. The emphasis throughout is on taking advantage of being multinational. This book is distinctly different from Shapiro's other texts, Multinational Financial Management, 4/e, in that the chapters are shorter and simpler, have more examples, and are less technical because of its reduction and/or elimination of the mathematics used.

From the Back Cover:
