Breuer, Wolfgang, Schweizer, Thilo, Breuer, Claudia, Gabler Lexikon Corporate Finance

2nd ed. Gabler-Verlag, 668 pp, €49.95, ISBN 978-3-8349-2980-8

The success of firms depends not only on their performance on the markets. Also essential is a professional appearance on the capital markets, to meet entrepreneurial resource requirements in the best possible way. The Lexikon provides nearly 3,500 keywords, with a comprehensive overview of all questions likely to arise in the context of corporate financing decisions. Great importance is attached to formulating theory-based evidence for the appropriate use of the various financial instruments available. The domains covered range from traditional topics such as equity, bond and loan financing to the discussion of hybrid and innovative forms of financing to special problems such as seed and early-stage and project financing. The Lexikon offers a mix of practical and theoretical content and is therefore equally of interest for decision makers in the financial departments of companies and students with a focus on finance, banking management and capital-market theory.
