520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc "The financial management field continues to experience exciting change and growth. Financial practitioners are increasingly employing new financial management techniques and sophisticated computer resources to aid in their decision making. "Financial engineers" have created new derivative financial instruments and transactions, such as options, financial futures contracts, options on futures contracts, foreign currency swaps, and interest rate swaps, to help managers manage risk and increase shareholder wealth. Many domestic indus tries have been restructured because of the pressures of foreign competition. Leveraged buyout transactions also have forced managers to make more careful use of their firms' resources. The growing private equity market has added another dimension to the focus on sound management of a firm's resources. Corporate reformers have focused attention on the structure of corporate governance relationships and the impact of alternative managerial compensation packages on firm performance. Bankruptcy filings increased dramati cally at the end of the 1980s and remained at high levels through 2007. The Internet is transforming the way securities are bought and sold and the way companies access new capital. At the same time, financial researchers have made important advances in the areas of valuation, cost of capital, capital structure theory and practice. option valuation (including "real" options associated with capital investments), risk management, and dividend policy. Access to and content of the Internet have greatly expanded, making timely financial infor mation increasingly available to customers, investors, and financial managers.<br/><br/>The future promises to be an even more exciting time for finance professionals. Financial managers have refocused their attention on the basic objective of maximizing shareholder wealth. Managers who act contrary to the interests of shareholders face the prospect of an unfriendly takeover, a corporate restructuring, pressure from domestic and foreign competitors, pressure from private equity investors, or pressures from shareholder groups and institutional investors. Firms increasingly must find operating savings necessary to remain competitive, as managers continue to struggle to find the optimal capital structure for their firm. The central importance of cash flows in the financial management of a firm has never been more apparent. The European economic and monetary unification, the capitalization of Russia and its former states, the rise of capitalism in China, and the utilization of human and business resources in India all require contemporary financial managers to possess greater knowledge of doing business in an international marketplace. In addition, the standards of ethical behavior adopted by managers of business enterprises become even more important Finally, the impact of the Internet on all areas of business practice will continue to revolutionize the financial arena as the result of the lifting of barriers to timely information access and the increase of competitive pressures on business managees. <br/><br/>Contemporary Financial Management incorporates these changes-the increased focus on shareholder wealth maximization and cash flow management, an emphasis on the international aspects of financial management, a concern for the ethical behavior of managers, the role of private equity investors, and the new information available on the Internet-into a text designed primarily for an introductory course in financial management. The book is also suitable for management development programs and as a reference aid to practicing finance professionals.<br/><br/>We recognize that students enter this course with a wide variety of backgrounds in mathematics, economics, accounting, and statistics. The only presumption we make regarding prior preparation is that all students will have had one course in financial accounting." --Preface
