Corporate finance ensures sensible goals, effective management and clear communication. Thus, it puts checks and balances on the success of strategy and leadership. The business model-specific application of finance is a fine art – and our life insurance in the business borderline situations of turnaround management. We are looking forward to meeting young talents and sharing our expertise during the Finance Case Challenge.
