With the ongoing global economic crisis still taking full effect on today’s society, International Corporate Finance 1e brings a fresh approach and perspective on present events. This text focuses on a key player in this financial world: multinational corporations (MNC). By applying general financial concepts and procedures, it explains the conduct of financial management in MNCs. Because most corporations are either directly or indirectly affected by multinational entities and have a global exposure, a study of MNCH financial management has broad applicability. This new text takes a quantitative approach with an emphasis on excel spreadsheets and current examples.
