It uses case studies to show how financial restructuring can be implemented in practice, thus paving the way for successful expansion.

Die gegenwärtige Krise auf den internationalen Kredit- und Kapitalmärkten stellt Unternehmenslenker und Finanzmanager vor neue Herausforderungen: Das für die Unternehmensfinanzierung notwendige Kapital wird knapper und teurer.

Finanzstrategisch denken – das klingt zunächst paradox. Denn finanziell zu denken heißt, sich an den Finanzmarkt anzupassen. Strategisch zu denken dagegen bedeutet, die Umwelt langfristig zu verändern und zu gestalten. Doch in letzter Zeit handeln immer häufiger Manager und Investoren scheinbar gegen die Gesetze des Kapitalmarktes. Parallel dazu finden Unternehmen neue Wege, sich dem Finanzmarkt nicht einfach anzupassen, sondern diesen zu ihren Gunsten zu beeinflussen. Wie die Autoren zeigen, handelt es sich hier nicht um einzelne Regelverstöße, sondern um einen tiefgreifenden Umbruch. Wer in den sich verändernden Märkten erfolgreich bleiben will, muss reagieren – indem er finanzstrategisch denkt. Die Autoren zeigen anhand von Praxisbeispielen, wie das gelingen kann. Damit wendet sich das Buch vor allem an Finance-Experten in Unternehmen, aber auch an Studierende, die sich über die aktuellen Entwicklungen auf den Finanzmärkten informieren möchten.

Strategic corporate finance? After all, corporate finance means responding to the financial markets. This book is intended not only for corporate finance experts, but also for students interested in the latest developments on the financial markets.

Technological progress and globalization have completely changed the overall conditions and rules of entrepreneurial engagement. The speed of this modern high performance economy has accelerated, competition is fiercer than ever, and the battles are no longer fought in the domestic or intra-European arena, but on a global level. To keep up with their rivals and increase their productivity, bu- nesses must be able to efficiently manage their processes and structures. However, strategies and business models must be developed simultaneously to set the stage for a successful and sustainable course of expansion. Driven by these forces, the management and focus of restructuring measures has also changed in recent years: in the past, the primary objective was to implement solutions to improve the operational end of the business – and, ultimately, to cut costs. The strategic revamping of the company is closely linked to this type of operational restructuring. Since then, however, another financial dimension has been added to this restructuring approach. In other words, the restructuring pr- ess – and the respective demands it imposes on stakeholders, such as managers, financial partners, and consultants – has evolved substantially from pure cost cutting measures (often associated with "rightsizing") to consulting on the brink of insolvency (planned insolvency method) and growth-oriented financial restr- turing.

Strategic corporate finance? This sounds like a paradox at first. After all, corporate finance means responding to the financial markets. Strategy, on the other hand, aims to change and shape the environment in the long term. Lately, though, more and more managers and investors appear to be breaking the laws of the capital market. At the same time, corporations are discovering new ways to not just react to the capital markets, but to actively shape them. The authors show that these violations are not isolated occurrences, but part of a paradigm shift. If companies want to stay successful in changing markets, they have to take a strategic approach to corporate finance. The authors use practical examples to demonstrate how this can be achieved. This book is intended not only for corporate finance experts, but also for students interested in the latest developments on the financial markets.
