The second topic explores the relationship between risk and return and how to incorporate risk into investment decisions. The third topic provides an in-depth analysis of decision-making under uncertainty. The fourth and fifth topics examine financing decisions, covering both the theory and practice of capital structure, as well as considerations related to dividend policy.
