The goal of financial management is to maximize shareholders wealth. In trying to do so, financial managers make the firms capital budgeting and financing decisions. In this mini research, each student will evaluate financial management of a firm.
He/she will survey and evaluate recent changes/developments in the firms corporate governance/agency conflicts, capital budgeting decisions, (unique/systematic) risks, financing decisions, capital structure, analyses made by its analysts, news coverage in the media, and stock prices. The research will conclude with his/her short term (in 3-9 months) and long term (2-3 years) assessments of what the firm will be at and be like. There is no limit on the length of the research paper nor a required style, but I am expecting it to be 5-7 page long with a double-spaced format.
The Topic for the firm is Cigna. There’a a Example paper attatched and Cigna’s data can be considered as a resource. The paper have to have some picture just like the example.
