On the Financing and Investment Decisions of Multinational Firms in the Presence of Exchange Risk

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  06 April 2009

Extract

In recent years, several papers [Mossin [13], Hamada [7], Rubinstein [14]] have addressed the normative implications of the CAPM (developed by Sharpe [15], Lintner [9] and Mossin [12]) for the capital budgeting and capital structure decisions of a value maximizing firm. The model has been extended by Chen and Boness [3] to analyze the effects of uncertain inflation and by Adler and Dumas [1] to study optimal international acquisitions.
