The corporate financial policy course aims to develop student skills surrounding financial decisions. We focus on financing decisions in both perfect markets and in markets with information asymmetries. We also build investing decisions on project valuation techniques involving real options. The course is built on the following textbooks:
« The theory of corporate finance » by Tirole
« Financial theory and corporate policy » written by Copeland, Weston and Shastri
« Finance d’entreprise » by Jonathan Berk & Peter DeMarzo, Pearson Edition
