About the book

Fundamentals of Multinational Finance, Fifth Edition, has been redesigned and restructured for tightness—critical elements of the field but in a much shorter delivery framework. This has been accomplished by integrating a number of previous topics along financial management threads. The book is in five parts unified by the common thread of the globalization process by which a firm moves from a domestic to a multinational business orientation.
