Corporate Governance and Finance Law

Roy Girasa is Program Chair, Dept. of Legal Studies and Taxation at Pace University, USA.

"This text sets the new academic standard for corporate governance in the global finance sector. After teaching finance for nearly a quarter century, I cannot think of a more valuable resource covering this discipline. This book is essential for finance professionals needing a guide for the legal complexities in international finance. Anyone wanting the most current and comprehensive content available in this area, would be well served by adopting this text." - William J. Raynor III, Graduate Professor, Southern Wesleyan University, USA "Corporate Governance and Finance Law is an exceptional text that provide accurate, up to date, well documented content that presents complex material in a perfect balance of depth and accessibility that make the textbooks useful not only for graduate students, but for undergraduate students as well. Ample relevant case summaries with sufficient depth to clearly illustrate and expand upon key points of law are used throughout both textbooks along with questions that serve as springboards to further analysis and discussion. Both textbooks offer direct prose perfectly organized to facilitate student outlining, study and retention of the material. Moreover, both textbooks offer a welcomed international perspective well beyond that offered by any textbook I have ever reviewed or adopted for classroom use. The book is perfectly balanced, direct, easy to understand yet comprehensive text from a master teacher with carefully selected cases that take students well beyond surface level understanding of the material covered. In short, Dr. Girasa simply sets the standard for what an exceptional textbook should be." - Victor D. Lopez, Associate Professor of Legal Studies in Business, Hofstra University, USA
