This course integrates foundational micro- and macro-economic concepts with the core principles of corporate finance and financial markets. Students learn how markets, incentives, and policy shape financial decisions inside firms and how financial tools quantify those decisions. We move from the principles of scarcity and equilibrium to capital budgeting, risk, and valuation?always linking economic reasoning to financial outcomes.
