Corporate finance is an area that is mainly concerned with long and short term financial planning and strategic implementation to maximize shareholder value in an organization. The term corporate finance encompasses a wide area of finance ranging from capital investment decisions to investment banking. Decisions taken with regard to corporate finance are majorly influenced by the actual size of the concerned business enterprise.
