Finance
The
role of the financial manager is to maximize
value. Unlike accountants who mostly collect
data, finance students are called upon to
examine data in order to come up with some
form of conclusion and recommendation. This
conclusion is often based on accounting
principles, but it needs to take into consideration
marketing theories, technological feasibility
and good old common sense, something often
lacking in business circles.
Financiers
seek to maximize return while minimizing
risk. In general, they are more risk-taking
in nature, reflected in turbulent and unpredictable
career paths in line with overall stock
market performance. Finance forces you to
examine the bottom line of everything that
goes on in business to ensure that output
is optimal given the level of input.
