The Financial Management Program supplements discussion of corporate finance principles with sessions on timely trends, including stock options, international interest rate risk, and global financial management. In addition to strategic insights, the program presents participants with valuation modeling tools to practice with peer study groups and to implement within their organizations. The diverse faculty team enables participants to network with academic leaders in a wide range of financial areas, such as dividend policy, derivatives, valuation and recapitalization, portfolio management and risk management.
