Answer 1

Answer:

no

Explanation:

Answer: We are now living in a world where all the major economic functions, i.e., consumption, production, and investment, are highly globalized. It is thus essential for financial managers to fully understand vital international dimensions of financial management. This global shift is in marked contrast to a situation that existed when the authors of this book were learning finance a few decades ago. At that time, most professors customarily (and safely, to some extent) ignored international aspects of finance. This mode of operation has become untenable since then.

How is international financial management different from domestic financial management?

Answer: There are three major dimensions that set apart international finance from domestic finance. They are:

1. foreign exchange and political risks,

2. market imperfections, and

3. expanded opportunity set.

3. Discuss the major trends that have prevailed in international business during the last two decades.

Answer: The 1990s brought a rapid integration of international capital and financial markets. Impetus for globalized financial markets initially came from the governments of major countries that had begun to deregulate their foreign exchange and capital markets. The economic integration and globalization that began in the eighties is picking up speed in the 1990s via privatization. Privatization is the process by which a country divests itself of the ownership and operation of a business venture by turning it over to the free market system. Trade liberalization and economic integration continued to proceed at both the regional and global levels. Despite sovereign debt crisis in Europe, more EU member countries have adopted the common currency, euro, that effectively became the second global currency after the U.S. dollar.
