Macroeconomic Uncertainty: International Risks and Opportunities for the Corporation

Offers an alternative to traditional corporate approaches to macroeconomic uncertainty and presents in-depth analyses which point out why conventional solutions are often inadequate. The authors offer an original and consistent approach to such areas as measuring and managing exchange rates, inflation, interest rates, and market fluctuations; exposure to international monetary and fiscal policies; transaction and translation exposure measures, and more. Concepts and strategies in each topic are illustrated with numerous examples. The emphasis throughout is on providing corporate decision makers with effective tools to assess information needs and to obtain feedback at various corporate levels in order to formulate strategies consistent with the objectives of the company and its shareholders.
