LUBS2205: Corporate Finance is an intermediate-level module designed to build on foundational finance knowledge by exploring key theories and concepts in corporate finance. It prepares students for advanced finance modules by linking theory with real-world corporate practices and focusing on the application of financial formulas and numerical analysis. The module aims to deepen students' understanding of core financial principles and develop their ability to apply these in business and financial market contexts. It requires prior completion of LUBS1035: Foundations of Finance and cannot be taken alongside LUBS2035 or LUBS2206.

The syllabus provides coverage of some of the fundamental current concepts and theories underpinning current corporate finance and indicative content includes: corporate governance, corporate capital structure and the practicalities of debt and equity financing, advantages and limits on the use of corporate debt, financial distress, risk and capital budgeting, dividend policy, more advanced aspects of the Capital Asset Pricing Model, the Efficient Market Hypothesis, an introduction to behavioural finance, mergers and acquisitions, an introduction to international corporate finance, and ethics in finance decisions.
