Abstract

Investors, governments and the general public have become increasingly concerned by the apparently uncontrolled and unforeseen collapses in major corporations, from the bursting of the dotcom bubble to scandals such as Enron. The impact this has had on both the economy and on public trust have forced corporate governance to the top of the business agenda. Taking a critical and comparative approach, this challenging text explores the key relationships and contradictions including: *How can the tensions between innovation, risk management and disclosure be resolved in corporate governance? *What is the relationship between corporate governance and economic performance? *Will higher standards of governance allow greater accountability and improved performance? 'International Corporate Governance' ''analyzes the escalating crisis in corporate governance and the growing demand for reform around the world. It critically investigates the reasons behind high profile corporate failures including Enron, Worldcom and Tyco, and examines the role that regulatory bodies play in determining international standards of governance.

Abstract

The third edition of Multinational Enterprise and Economic Analysis surveys the contributions that economic analysis has made to our understanding of why multinational enterprises exist and what consequences they have for the workings of the national and international economies. It shows how economic analysis can explain multinationals' activity patterns and how economics can shed conceptual light on problems of business policies and managerial decisions arising in practice. It addresses the welfare problems arising from multinationals' activities and the logic of governments' preferences and choices in their dealings with multinationals. Suitable for researchers, graduates and upper-level undergraduates. The third edition of this highly accessible book incorporates the many additions to our knowledge of multinationals accumulated in research appearing in the past decade.

Abstract

This book provides an answer to the question, 'What does the finance and economics literature say about the determination and estimation of a project's cost of capital?'. Uniquely, it reviews both the theory of asset pricing in discrete time and a range of more applied topics which relate to project valuation, including the effects of corporate and personal taxes, the international dimension, estimation of the cost of equity in practice, and the cost of capital for regulated utilities. It seeks to explain models and arguments in a way which does justice to the reasoning, whilst minimising the prior knowledge of finance and maths expected of the reader. It acts as a bridge between a general undergraduate or MBA text in finance, accounting or economics, and the modern theoretical literature on the cost of capital.
