DESCRIPTION
"The increasing openness and interdependence between countries" could be a simple definition of globalisation. The field of finance has the lead in this process.
Throughout this course, we will focus on understanding the theory of international finance and its real-world applications from a business point of view. Understanding foreign exchange markets is key to carrying out sound and effective management of the firm from a financial perspective. And since multinational corporations face both opportunities and risks, financial management also involves designing appropriate strategies to hedge the company from actual and potential risks through the use of the different types of financial assets (such as derivatives) available for this purpose.
International Finance is an optional course delivered in the 1st quarter of the 4th year of the International Business and Marketing Degree. It focuses on developing all international trade finance solutions and contextualising them within a working business environment.
