The Chinese capital market has become increasingly mature after more than a decade of development, and corporate financial activities have been fully integrated into financial markets and intermediaries. Based on teaching practice, the authors of this book strive to establish a new discipline—financial and financial studies—that comprehensively researches corporate financial activities, adapts to modern economics and business management, and addresses the shortcomings of traditional financial management in terms of modern financial environments. Compared to traditional financial management, financial and financial studies extends the perspective of corporate value creation to financial markets and intermediaries, breaking through the analytical framework of traditional financial management in terms of corporate value creation. Thus, it examines the sources of corporate value in a more comprehensive, systematic, and dynamic manner.
The book is divided into eighteen chapters, discussing the research objects and goals of financial and financial studies, as well as its fundamental concepts. It focuses on elaborating on the financial aspects of corporate management in light of the latest developments in financial management theory. Topics include financial markets and intermediaries, the relationship between financial markets and corporate value, debt financing, equity financing, financial asset pricing theory, and risk management of financial derivatives related to financial management.
This book is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students in financial management programs, accounting programs, and MBA students.
