Elgar Advanced Introductions are stimulating and thoughtful introductions to major fields in the social sciences, business and law, expertly written by the world's leading scholars. Designed to be accessible yet rigorous, they offer concise and lucid surveys of the substantive and policy issues associated with discrete subject areas.



This Advanced Introduction presents the modern theories of corporate finance. Its focus on core concepts offers useful managerial insights, bolstered by recent empirical evidence, to provide a richer understanding of critical corporate financial policy decisions.



Key features include:



  • A modern approach to corporate financial theory and evidence

  • Key research presented in a structured manner

  • Concepts explained in an intuitive, example-filled manner that does not require a strong mathematics background

  • Detailed references for those wishing further reading on particular topics.


Within business programs, the book offers an insightful introduction for courses on corporate finance, but also can be employed as a supplementary text in broader business courses. Experienced managers in financial functions will find the book a useful review and update of material developed since earning their degrees. Given the increasing use of cross-functional teams within the business community, the book provides a richer understanding of corporate financial policy choices for managers across a broad array of business functions.

Industry Reviews
'This book does a great job reviewing the most important aspects of corporate finance written in an accessible manner for a wide audience. Non-finance managers that need to grasp the basics, as well as finance-trained folks who simply need a refresher, and all those in between, will benefit from this book.' -- James Linck, Southern Methodist University, US
'In this book, two of the world's most distinguished financial economists summarize the current academic thinking on three major financial policy questions that face all public companies: How do we value our investment opportunities? How do we finance those investments, primarily with debt, equity, or some combination thereof? And how do we decide when to return capital to our shareholders, and whether mainly through dividends or stock buybacks?' -- Don Chew, Editor, Journal of Applied Corporate Finance
