Englische Uebersetzung des Buches Unternehmensfinanzierung und Kreditpolitik, Versus Verlag, Zürich. Internal financing, borrowing or going public? What do a world-class orchestra and a premier league football club, a high-tech start-up or a multinational concern have in common? - all of them face the question of what financial structure, i.e. what ratio of debt to equity capital to choose and how to manage the finances of their organization. On the other hand, banks and investors must be able to assess a company's future prospects and weigh up the risks their investments are exposed to.
