Foreword
As there is a need for more large-scale real-life computational optimisation
studies in accounting, Corporate Governance and Financial Management:
Computational Optimisation Modelling and Accounting Perspectives has
made a valuable contribution to the literature by performing a study
on computational optimisation modelling of corporate finance based
on the integrated framework and foundations of accounting theories,
financial engineering, risk management, and corporate governance
principles and issues.
For more than a decade, corporate governance has been an expanding
topic discussed by academics and practitioners as corporate failures and
the global financial crisis demonstrates the importance of complying
with good corporate governance (GCG) best practices.
This book provides a comprehensive study of this issue integrating
corporate governance, corporate finance and accounting in the formu-
lation of sound financial management strategies. It also offers practical
steps for managers on how to formulate sound financial management
strategies using an integrated optimisation financial model for achieving
GCG practices, which lead to lower risks and higher firm value.
Offering an integrated solution for achieving GCG practices, this book
adopts value-based management (shareholder value maximisation) and
stakeholder approaches. Moreover, the model shown in the book applies
a free cash flow (FCF) valuation and financial ratio analysis, incorporates
external governance mechanisms and examines how internal govern-
ance instruments discipline managers in the process of shareholder
value maximisation.
This book makes a significant contribution to the literature by
providing an integrated framework based on managerial and financial
accounting perspectives for achieving the benefits of GCG practices.
The framework incorporates risk-management practices, accommodates
external regulatory environments and addresses the importance of cost
of capital. From practitioners’ point of view, this unique study gives new
insight into an application of the optimisation approach as a method-
ology for corporate governance study and provides an understanding for
integrating the accounting concept in the linear optimisation model.
