Corporate Finance: The Basics is a concise introduction to the inner workings of finance at the company level. It aims to take the fear out of corporate finance and add the fun in, presenting the subject in a way that is simple to grasp and easy to digest. Its aim is to explain – and demystify – the essential ideas of corporate finance, avoiding the heavy use of maths and formulae. The calculations and figures in the book are purely to illustrate fundamental concepts, appealing to readers’ common sense, rather than stretching their ability to do "number-crunching".

This fully revised edition takes into account the most recent developments in the corporate financial landscape, including: the longer-term ramifications of the 2008 financial crisis, the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, rising inflation and the current economic climate, and the effect of environmental, social and governance (ESG) on a company’s financial decisions. A brand-new chapter which seeks to answer the question of how to manage growing businesses from a finance perspective is also included.

Through the use of a subject map, this book explains how the key components of the subject are connected with each other, strengthening the reader’s understanding. This book is the ideal introduction for anyone looking for a short yet scholarly overview of corporate finance.

Terence C.M. Tse is Professor of Finance at Hult International Business School. Terence is also a co-founder and Executive Director of Nexus FrontierTech, an AI company. In addition, he is an affiliated professor at ESCP Business School and Cotrugli Business School.
