Multinational Corporate Strategy and Finance

This text is designed to enable students to understand the strategic and financial needs and problems of international and multinational corporate groups and to identify and apply ways in which these needs can be met through the bank and capital markets. It is a broad subject that includes an understanding of corporate strategy and business analysis as well as the bank\'s lending services, cross-border risks, examination of capital markets and corporate treasury management.

Banking relationships with multinationals are dynamic; the scope and geographic spread of services which banks are able to offer is constantly evolving and at the same time, the banking requirements of these organizations develop as their businesses evolve.

What this means for the multinational corporate banker is that they need to be able to demonstrate a deeper understanding of their customer and the corporate’s business.
