From the Back Cover

The early years of the new millennium witness a vastly different financial landscape to that of even a few years ago. Those who have failed to keep pace are those who will fall behind. In this accessible and entertaining book giants of the financial world such as Tom Copeland, and Nobel Prize winners Harry Markowitz and Merton Miller discuss their views on financial strategy and look ahead to future trends. There are contributions from international experts both in the private and public sector and from the academic world.

The book examines through 15 self-contained interviews the many facets of financial strategy, each person giving his viewpoint in a balanced objective fashion. They discuss subjects such as the dominance of the market (despite government attempts to regulate) a broad range of Value Based Management, Valuation, and how economic theories translate into practice.
