International Corporate Finance

In a rapidly evolving and increasingly complex global economy, most key financial decisions such as investments in operations, procurement of capital, distributions to capital providers, mergers and acquisitions, and risk management have inevitably international dimensions. This course offers analytical perspectives and insights into corporate financial decisions in an era of global decoupling and heightened geopolitical tensions. The course emphasizes international differences in economic, political, and institutional environments and their impact on financial decisions and helps students develop a strategic understanding of the critical financial decisions faced by corporations. By the end of the course, students are equipped with analytical tools of varying complexity and gain a firm grounding on institutional realities that empower them to make sound financial management decisions in a complex international environment. Students may not count both MGMT S-2700 and MGMT S-2710 for degree or certificate credit.
