Book Description | Its high-level perspective on the global economy differentiates this introduction to international finance from other textbooks. Melvin and Norrbin provide essential information for those who seek employment in multinational industries, while competitors focus on standard economic tools and financial management skills. Readers learn how to reach their own conclusions about trends and new developments, not simply function within an organization. The 8th edition, newly updated and expanded, offers concise descriptions, current case studies, and new pedagogical materials to help readers make sense of global finance. |
Editorial Review | " International Money and Finance is an excellent resource for both international and multinational finance courses. The combined coverage of both topics - the environment of international financial institutions and instruments, and financial management tools for multinational corporations - makes it easier for students to grasp the impact of both on businesses that increasingly operate in a global environment."-Anne M. Alexander, University of Wyoming |
