Description
Other books present corporate finance approaches to the VC/PE industry, but many key decisions require an understanding of the ways that
law and economics work together. This book is better than straight corporate finance textbooks because it offers broad perspectives and
principles that enable readers to deduce the economic implications of specific contract terms. This approach avoids the common pitfalls
of implying that contractual terms apply equally to firms in any industry anywhere in the world.
Audience:
Upper-division undergraduates and graduate students studying financial and legal aspects of venture capital and private equity
