,CHAPTER 1: OBJECTIVES AND FUNCTIONS OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT

1.1 THE ROLE OF THE FINANCE DIRECTOR (CFO)

• Investment decisions
o In which assets should the firm invest?
o Determines size of company – operating results – operational risk
• Financing decisions
o How can/should the firm finance these assets?
o Dept financing (different types of depts (long term vs short term, …))
o What is the best way to fund investments?
o Lots of choices!!
o Determines the fixed financial costs of the company – the financial risk
• Financial planning
o How should the financial flows be managed?
o You’ve got a number of cashflows → how are we going to optimize these? Trade off!
▪ All times cash available to fund things you need to pay (investments, wages, …)
▪ VS you don’t want too much cash, nothing is happening with that money and that’s not good because
it doesn’t bring any profit
• Dividend decisions
o Determines the size of the reserved profits → impact on the equity
• Risk management
o All these decisions above influence the financial risk of a company → management is necessary
1.2 THE OBJECTIVE OF THE COMPANY FROM A FINANCIAL POI NT OF VIEW

• Maximization of
o revenues?
▪ Costs involves → not a good idea
o profits?
▪ What profits? Absolute terms? Profit per share? …?
o Profits per share?
o Value per share?
▪ Include both expected profit and risk!
▪ Risk is not entailed in the other three
• Example: A company has a 20% profitability rate and a profit per share of € 2 (no debts). The company can issue new
equity and invest the proceeds in 10% bonds




o Increase because of the new invested bond
o Profitability goes down because extra money is invested in bonds which only entails 10% → bad investment
because it reduces profitability

,• Which objective?
o The creation of shareholder value
▪ Value is not determined by the current profit per share, but by the expected future profits and the
risk associated with these profits!
▪ In an “efficient” market, the market price of a share will reflect its value
▪ Value goes further than just profit!
▪ Earnings per share growth is not necessary good, the interest is value per share
▪ Value per share = expected profits in the future
▪ Earnings per share = dangerous to focus on!
▪ You have to take into account the risk of these profits
o But is value maximization really the objective of companies?
▪ Shouldn’t we also take into account the broader societal context?
o You can maximize your value, but if it doesn’t feel right...
• ESG
o “Environmental, Social and Governance”
▪ Companies should not simply focus on the maximalization of value, but also consider effects on the
company, environment, social issues, …
o “Investors, regulators, consumers and employees are now increasingly demanding that companies should not
only be good stewards of capital but also of natural and social capital and have the necessary governance
framework in place to support this.”
▪ Investors care about the broader impact of the firm
o “More and more investors are incorporating ESG elements into their investment decision making process,
making ESG increasingly important from the perspective of securing capital, both debt and equity.”
• Objectives reporter by companies themselves (2006-2007)




o Looks at the reported goal of the companies for different countries
o What does companies say that their goals are?
o Most companies add several goals where they mention customer satisfaction, employee satisfaction, growth,
profitability, corporate social responsibility
o You can argue that they are not simply focused at making profit!!




5

, o Everything went up, society as a whole became much more important
o Also an increase in care and attention in ethics, ESG environment, ESG social, philanthropy
o Nonfinancial goals are important (BUT that’s what they say, not what they do)
• Which objective?
o But do firms really have an “objective”?
o In this course, we’ll assume that value maximization is the objective of the firm
• Corporate governance
o = How can shareholders make sure that the management of the company will maximise shareholder value?
o Conflicts of interest between the management and the shareholders of a company
o What you as a shareholder want is not the same as what the manager wants
o The agency-theory
▪ The ‘agent’ (manager) acts in the interests of the ‘principal’ (shareholder)
▪ In reality, the interests of the agent can be different from those of the principal
• The agent may care more about his own interests than those of the principal
• The shareholder lacks the information to have a full picture of what the manager is doing
o The manager can use the firm to pursue his own interests, at the expense of
shareholder value
o Other agency-relations in a company
▪ Controlling shareholders versus minority shareholders
• Family firms listed on a stock exchange
• Some of the shareholders are in control over the firm
• Also conflict shareholders vs deptholders (what they want is not the same)
o You want your loan payed back (value of dept) VS you want to maximize value of
shares
▪ Shareholders versus debtholders
• Maximizing shareholder value may be at the expense of the value of the debtholders
▪ Also customers, suppliers, employees and the state have interests in the firm
• Other conflicts!
• For example government want taxes
• This can lead to bad behavior
• One way to diminish conflict to managers and shareholders is by giving them shares
• BUT giving managers stocks also brings a lot of conflicts
