N2  - "Corporate finance and corporate strategy have long been seen as different sides of the same coin. Though both focus on the same broad problem, investment decision-making, the gap between the two sides - and between theory and practice - remains embarrassingly large. This book synthesizes cutting-edge developments in corporate finance and related fields - in particular, real options and game theory - to help bridge this gap. In exposition and through numerous examples and applications from various industries, Han Smit and Lenos Trigeorgis set forth an extended valuation framework for competitive strategies."; "The authors provide a wide range of valuation examples, such as acquisition strategies, R & D investment in high-tech sectors, joint research ventures, product introductions in consumer electronics, infrastructure, and oil exploration investment." "Strategic Investment will be a guide and resource for corporate managers, MBA students, and academics alike."--Jacket; "Corporate finance and corporate strategy have long been seen as different sides of the same coin.
