Key facts
London School of Economics and Political Science's Corporate Finance Law course is designed to provide a solid foundation in corporate finance law covering three components. The first component is an introduction to corporate finance theory, which covers the nature of equity and debt as well as an introduction to how capital markets work and the theories of capital structure and valuation. The second covers the regulation of legal capital, including the relevant core accounting concepts, the regulation of dividends and share buy-backs. The third addresses the issuance of debt and equity, and related aspects of securities regulation such as insider trading and disclosure regulation, as well as mergers and acquisitions.
This highly interactive course allows you to apply the theory to real-world cases from UK and EU law and regulation. You will also draw on the approaches to regulation in other jurisdictions, such as the United States and Germany. By the end of the course you will have a well-rounded understanding of the key function of corporate finance law and its role within an organisation.
