References

Equity financing requires that you sell an ownership interest in the business in exchange for capital.The most basic hurdle to equity financing is finding investors who are willing to buy into your business；however，the amount of equity financing that you undertake may depend more upon your willingness to share management control than upon the investor appeal of the business.By selling equity interests in your business，you sacrifice some of your autonomy and management rights.
The effect of selling a large percentage of the ownership interest in your business may mean that your own investment will be short-term，unless you retain a majority interest in the business and control over future sale of the business.of course.many small business operators are not necessarily interested in maintaining their business indefinitely，and your personal motives for pursuing a small business will determine the value you place upon business ownership.Sometimes the bottom line is whether you would rather operate a successful business for several years and then sell your interests for a fair profit，or be repeatedly frustrated in attempts at financing a business that cannot achieve its potential because of insufficient capital.

本教材是為本科教學需要編寫的，內容涵蓋了金融學的主要方面，教材內容從介紹金融學專業學生在不同工作崗位應掌握的基本技能開始，到金融衍生工具的使用，內容新穎實用。
隨著金融產品特別是衍生品的廣泛使用，本書對第一版的內容進行了較大調整，增加了商業銀行和服務、期權和互換等內容，並對一些章節進行了修訂，使本書更顯實用性。
