Корпоративные финансы – это отдельная новая для России область знаний. Здесь речь идет об изучении движения денег, а также других форм капитала как в бизнес (привлечение и инвестирование), так и из него (выплаты). Для эффективной организации этой работы требуется особая методология, система принципов и концепций, необходимых для понимания и численной оценки мотивов поведения инвесторов (собственников и кредиторов) и менеджеров по всей цепочке движения капитала и денег. С точки зрения роли в карьерном росте мы выделяем следующие блоки дисциплин.
