EMBA 545 Foundations of Financial Management II

The second half of the EMBA finance sequence shifts from accounting mechanics to how capital markets actually price money, risk, and time, asking how a manager should think about value when the next dollar can be invested, borrowed, or paid out. You work through present-value math, bond and stock valuation, portfolio theory and asset pricing, then turn the lens inward to capital budgeting, leverage, payout policy, and options on the firm. Building on the introductory financial management course, it gives executive students the analytical vocabulary that later electives in corporate finance, investments, and strategy assume you already speak.
