Innledning

    Mål
    The first objective of this course is to understand how managers of corporations make decisions regarding how corporations are financed and how they pay out dividends. To begin to understand these students need to consider what an e.cient financial market is and why e.ciency in financial markets is important for these decisions. Managers can finance investments through raising equity or debt. The decision regarding how much debt relative to equity should be used will form an integral part of this section of the course. Moreover students will learn how the choice between debt and equity can influence the capital budgeting decision discussed in Finance I. The second objective of the course is to give students a basic understanding of a set of additional topics in finance. These are related to the issuance of securities, the decision of whether to buy or lease, merger and acquisition activity, risk management and issues in international finance.
