Multinational Business Finance trains the leaders of tomorrow's multinational enterprises to recognize and capitalize on the unique characteristics of global markets. Because the job of a manager is to make financial decisions that increase a firm's value, the authors have embedded real-world mini-cases throughout, applying chapter concepts to the types of situations managers of real multinational firms encounter.

The 16th Edition attempts to capture the rapid evolution of our global marketplace. It takes a closer look at the types of organizations that permeate the widespread arena, competition and opportunities in emerging markets. It also examines how financial leadership can integrate the strategic and financial challenges that global businesses face today.
