Major aim of this theory into practice report would be to let know readers about all of form funding sources (that would make possible for the companies in meeting their working capital needs). It has been understood that the method or process of acquiring capital through different sources is termed as Financing Decision. The Corporations are actively recruiting financial managers mainly for the successful execution of financial decision. Generally, there have been various sources of funds that could be utilised by companies for meeting their working capital needs. It has been observed that with the utilisation of funds from different sources not only made possible for the underlying firm to survive through difficult periods but would help it in expanding its operations as well. All of these sources are classified in to five main classes: Internal Financing, Security Financing, Lease Financing, Loan Financing and other sources. Internal financing intends on the approach of reinvesting of company's earning either for meeting working capital needs or for expanding company's operations. Security Financing is all about issuing of company's shares of different kinds. A company could source capital through loan financing which is determined as an agreement that it would repay principal amount it to the lender in a specified time along with monthly interest payments. Lease financing is actually an agreement between two parties under which one party is interested in using other party's asset for a specified period. Venture capital is considered as relatively new source of finance. From an investor point of view, it is most risky investment. In acco

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Project Report from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: C, University of Bedfordshire (MSc Finance & Business Management), language: English, abstract: Financial Capital is considered as the superior source of funding required by the firms to begin or to carry its operation. Different theories have been proposed over time to assist managers in making the financing decision. In this regard the Pecking Order theory is the prominent one, which urged the company to give Retained Profit as the first priority whenever the company face the situation to raise capital. Debt is the only attractive alternative which not only supports the company to start and survive but also helps it to expand its operations with the intension of challenging the leaders of the specified industry. The capability of the company to finance its working capital is the major concern which is the main endeavour of finance manager to resolve. It is a essential requirement for the company to settle the account with the supplier of the fund before entering the agreement. The source of capital for Working Capital can be divided in to four main classes (Internal Financing, Security Financing, Loan Financing and other financing sources). It has been understood from the Case Study section, that Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), Lloyds TSB and HBOS would undergo the Bailout package which would not only give the government the stakes within the Bank but also would permitted them to control and monitor compensation and financial plan closely with the help of their appointed Board of Directors. On the other hand Barclays, which would be hoped to avoid government support is looking more resistant to raise 6.5 Billion through private investor and also would scrapped its year 2008 dividend with the initiative of saving 2 Billion. It has been found out that Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), Lloyds TSB and HBOS are more interested in going for Security fina

Download or read book Capital in the Twenty First Century written by Thomas Piketty and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-14 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the grand dynamics that drive the accumulation and distribution of capital? Questions about the long-term evolution of inequality, the concentration of wealth, and the prospects for economic growth lie at the heart of political economy. But satisfactory answers have been hard to find for lack of adequate data and clear guiding theories. In this work the author analyzes a unique collection of data from twenty countries, ranging as far back as the eighteenth century, to uncover key economic and social patterns. His findings transform debate and set the agenda for the next generation of thought about wealth and inequality. He shows that modern economic growth and the diffusion of knowledge have allowed us to avoid inequalities on the apocalyptic scale predicted by Karl Marx. But we have not modified the deep structures of capital and inequality as much as we thought in the optimistic decades following World War II. The main driver of inequality--the tendency of returns on capital to exceed the rate of economic growth--today threatens to generate extreme inequalities that stir discontent and undermine democratic values if political action is not taken. But economic trends are not acts of God. Political action has curbed dangerous inequalities in the past, the author says, and may do so again. This original work reorients our understanding of economic history and confronts us with sobering lessons for today.

Download or read book Free Capital written by Guy Thomas and published by Harriman House Limited. This book was released on 2013-09-02 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wouldn't life be better if you were free of the daily grind - the conventional job and boss - and instead succeeded or failed purely on the merits of your own investment choices? Free Capital is a window into this world. Based on a series of interviews, it outlines the investing strategies, wisdom and lifestyles of 12 highly successful private investors. Each of them has accumulated £1m or more - in most cases considerably more - mainly from stock market investment. Six are 'ISA millionaires' who have £1m or more in a tax-free ISA, a result which is arithmetically impossible without exceptional investment returns. Some have several academic degrees or strong City backgrounds; others left school with few qualifications and are entirely self-taught as investors. Some invest most of their money in very few shares and hold them for years at a time; others make dozens of trades every day, and hold them for at most a few hours. Some are inveterate networkers, who spend their day talking to managers at companies in which they invest; for others a share is just a symbol on a screen, and a price chart shows most of what they need to know to make their trading decisions. Free capital - money surplus to immediate living expenses - is the raw material with which these investors work. It can also be thought of as their psychological habitat, free from the petty tribulations of office politics. Lastly, free capital describes the footloose nature of their assets, which can be quickly redirected towards any type of investment anywhere in the world, without the constraints which institutional investors often face. Although it presents many advanced insights and valuable investment hints, this is not an overly technical book. It offers practical ideas and inspiration, with revealing detail and minimal jargon, making it an indispensable read for novice and experienced investors alike.
