Reviews of the Previous Edition: "Professor Jacque's textbook allies conceptual rigor with practical relevance drawn from multiple case studies. A highly recommended textbook to those who teach international finance at both the undergraduate and graduate level." - Gabriel Hawawini, Henry Grunfeld Chaired Professor of Investment Banking and former Dean of INSEAD "Professor Jacque's new textbook serves as a right-sized, real-life manual of the complexity and adventure of International Finance. Most importantly it accomplishes this goal without short-cutting the relevant theoretical concepts underpinning the instruments of global finance. This book is a compass, interactive study manual, theoretical reference guide, and last but not least, a case-based financial adventure novel, all in one." - Oliver Kratz, PhD, CEO of Global Thematic Partners "In this book, Laurent Jacque does a superb job of combining modern concepts of international finance with a keen eye for their application in the context of the business firm and exceptional exposition that places a premium on capturing, simplifying, and retaining what are sometimes complex relationships. It is a book that deserves to quickly become one of the leaders in the field." - Ingo Walter, Seymour Milstein Professor of Finance, Corporate Governance and Ethics, Stern School of Business, New York University Laurent L Jacque is a renowned scholar in international finance and banking, holding the Walter B.
