FIN-5016 - International Finance

Semester Credits: 3 Weeks: 8

This course extends the principles of corporate financial management into the international realm. International finance differs from purely domestic financial management in two important ways. First, foreign exchange rate (the conversion rate of one currency into another) volatility creates an additional level of difficulty for companies as they make investment and financing decisions. Second, since multinational corporations conduct business across international boundaries, their decision making is affected by different political, regulatory, and tax regimes. In the first half of this course, you will learn about the global financial environment and investigate how exchange rates are determined. The second half of the course focuses on financial decision making in an international setting, with specific emphasis on managing foreign exchange risk in making choices concerning long-term business investments.
