  • Chapter
  • First Online:
The Strategic CFO

Abstract

Capital markets have evolved from geographically dispersed asset specific investor- and trading communities to international, partially integrated networks of transaction partners across multiple asset classes (Capital Markets 2.0). This new environment is characterized by a set of changes, which creates new opportunities as well as challenges for the financial manager. The chapter selects three of the typical dynamics in Capital Markets 2.0 and discusses their implications on typical decisions to be made by financial managers.
