| Lehrinhalte |
(*)This course discusses and formally analyzes basic concepts of the theoretical literature on corporate finance. We deal with questions such as
- how asymmetric information about an entrepreneur’s activities or investment opportunities affects a firm’s ability to raise outside financing,
- how the choice of debt versus equity financing affects managerial incentives, or
- how firms deal with liquidity shocks.
If time permits, we will cover more recent literature on the interaction of a firm’s financing structure with its relationships with non-financial stakeholders, such as employees or suppliers.
