Research Needs in Corporate Finance: Perspectives from Financial Managers
基于对财务经理的调查，本文梳理了公司金融领域的研究需求，发现监管和所有权方面需求最大，长期融资次之，而运营融资需求最小。受访者特别强调全球化影响和对冲工具降低金融风险的研究。
A profile of needed research in corporate finance is developed based on a survey of financial managers. Research needs are perceived to be the greatest in the areas of regulation and ownership. The area of long-term financing represents the third most important category. Alternatively, financial managers consider operational financing to be the least important area in terms of research needs. Write-in comments, in general, indicate a particularly strong need for research in two distinctive areas: the effects of globalization and the use of hedging tools to reduce financial risk.
