Abstract

The Short Introduction to Corporate Finance provides an accessibly written guide to contemporary financial institutional practice. Rau deploys both his professional expertise and experience of teaching MBA and graduate-level courses to produce a lively discussion of the key concepts of finance, liberally illustrated with real-world examples. Built around six essential paradigms, he builds an integrated framework covering all the major ideas in finance over the past half-century. Ideal for students and practitioners alike, it will become core reading for anyone aspiring to become an effective manager.
• Introduces readers to the bedrocks of finance theory
• Intuitive explanations allow readers to understand corporate finance without complex math
• The concise yet rigorous exposition is drawn from the author's teaching experience at the University of Cambridge's Judge Business School, Sciences Po, Paris, and the University of California, Berkeley
