Synopsis

The  application of financial information to corporate problem-solving
and  analysis is a key requirement for corporate managers.  This  unit
introduces students to the fundamental concepts of financial statement
analysis  and  then  focuses  on  the relationship  between  financial
information  and capital market data.  In particular,  the  unit  will
provide  students with the necessary skills to evaluate and anticipate
the  impact of financial information on the value of various asset and
debt  securities, and to utilise such information in the  analysis  of
situations such as corporate restructuring and financial distress.
