The book covers the main thematic areas of financial management in a clear and systematic way. The author's goal is to help students build a solid foundation by providing them with a modern educational tool.

The book creates a learning environment centered around three axes: the use of financial tools, the interconnection of concepts, and studying for success. This is achieved through simple and contemporary examples and the application of three methods (equation, TVM calculator keys, spreadsheet), with rich updated material, combined with a plethora of questions and problems for practice.

The ultimate aim is for students to develop problem-solving skills. Among the topics analyzed are financial statements, the time value of money and the concepts of discounting and compounding, interest rates and interest factors, stocks, bonds, and dividends, risk and return, cost of capital and working capital management, capital budgeting decision models, forecasts and short-term financial planning, capital structure, and financial ratios.
