Course Objectives
Students will gain insight into changes involving the large-scale restructuring of a company’s balance sheet, including reviewing the framework of the company itself. By selecting case examples of M&As, LBOs, spin-offs, and so forth, students will study the processes involved in these activities and understand the viewpoints of general managers. Students will also study the means of selecting the optimum method for dealing with such issues. The class work also includes role-playing, with the students assuming the parts of the management team and the creditors.
