Financial Management

Regardless of the position you hold in your organization, financial concerns play a role in nearly every business decision you make.

We will familiarize you with the tools and techniques required to interpret financial statements and evaluate capital investment opportunities. You will understand how capital investment, financing and capital structure relate to firm value, and you will learn to identify risk factors and integrate them into your analysis. The skills and knowledge you acquire will help build confidence in your own ability to critically evaluate financial information.

Finance is strategy in action. Financial implications permeate nearly all business decisions and have a direct impact on the firm’s value.”
