International Finance
Luis Eugenio Pereiro
Description from DukeHub
During this course you'll assume the role of a CEO facing major operating, financing and investment decisions in the international arena. You´ll learn to insure against forex risk via forwards, money market- and option hedges, calculate cash flows and discount rates for foreign operations, estimate optimal liquidity and leverage in international subsidiaries, and structure global equity portfolios, IPOs and cross-border M&As. The course has been designed as a workshop, focused on the essentials, fully case-based, and highly practical: there are no theory lectures. The classroom is a shop-floor where all students are expected to work intensively on their laptops in each and every session, using the Crystal Ball simulation software. This course is for Daytime MBA and Accelerated Daytime MBA students.
