FINANCE
Finance is a field that deals with the study of investments. It includes
the dynamics of assets and liabilities over time under conditions of
different degrees of uncertainty and risk. Finance can also be defined
as the science of money management. Finance aims to price assets
based on their risk level and their expected rate of return. Finance can
be broken into three different sub-categories: public finance, corporate
finance and personal finance.
FINANCIAL SERVICES
• An entity whose income exceeds its expenditure can lend or invest
the excess income to help that excess income produce more
income in the future. Though on the other hand, an entity whose
income is less than its expenditure can raise capital by borrowing or
selling equity claims, decreasing its expenses, or increasing its
income.
• A bank aggregates the activities of many borrowers and lenders. A
bank accepts deposits from lenders, on which it pays interest. The
bank then lends these deposits to borrowers. Banks allow
borrowers and lenders, of different sizes, to coordinate their
activity.
• Finance is used by individuals (personal finance), by governments
(public finance), by businesses (corporate finance) and by a wide
variety of other organizations such as schools and non-profit
organizations.
Public finance
• Public finance describes finance as related to sovereign states
and sub-national entities (states/provinces, counties,
municipalities, etc.) and related public entities (e.g. school
districts) or agencies. It usually encompasses a long-term,
strategic perspective regarding investment decisions that
affect public entities.These long-term, strategic periods usually
encompass five or more years. Public finance is primarily
concerned with:
• Identification of required expenditure of a public sector entity
• Source(s) of that entity's revenue
• The budgeting process
• Debt issuance (municipal bonds) for public works projects
• Central banks, such as the Federal Reserve System banks in
the United States and Bank of England in the United Kingdom,
are strong players in public finance, acting as lenders of last
resort as well as strong influences on monetary and credit
conditions in the economy.
CAPITAL
Capital in the financial sense, is the money that gives the business the
power to buy goods to be used in the production of other goods or the
offering of a service. (The capital has two types of resources, Equity
and Debt).
The deployment of capital is decided by the budget. This may include
the objective of business, targets set, and results in financial terms,
e.g., the target set for sale, resulting cost, growth, required investment
to achieve the planned sales, and financing source for the investment.
CASH BUDGET
The cash budget is basically a detailed plan that shows all expected sources
and uses of cash when it comes to spending it appropriately. The cash
budget has the following six main sections:
1.)Beginning Cash Balance – contains the last period's closing cash balance,
in other words, the remaining cash from last years earnings.
2.)Cash collections – includes all expected cash receipts (all sources of cash
for the period considered, mainly sales)
3.)Cash disbursements – lists all planned cash outflows for the period such as
dividend, excluding interest payments on short-term loans, which appear in
the financing section. All expenses that do not affect cash flow are excluded
from this list (e.g. depreciation, amortization, etc.)
4.)Cash excess or deficiency – a function of the cash needs and cash
available. Cash needs are determined by the total cash disbursements plus
the minimum cash balance required by company policy. If total cash available
is less than cash needs, a deficiency exists.
5.)Financing – discloses the planned borrowings and repayments of those
planned borrowings, including interest.
Financial economics is the branch of economics studying the interrelation of
financial variables, such as prices, interest rates and shares, as opposed to goods
and services. Financial economics concentrates on influences of real economic
variables on financial ones, in contrast to pure finance. It centres on managing
risk in the context of the financial markets, and the
resultant economic and financial models. It essentially explores how rational
investors would apply risk and return to the problem of an investment policy.
Here, the twin assumptions of rationality and market efficiency lead to modern
portfolio theory (the CAPM), and to the Black–Scholes theory for option
valuation; it further studies phenomena and models where these assumptions
do not hold, or are extended. "Financial economics", at least formally, also
considers investment under "certainty" (Fisher separation theorem, "theory of
investment value", Modigliani–Miller theorem) and hence also contributes to
corporate finance theory. Financial econometrics is the branch of financial
economics that uses econometric techniques to parameterize the relationships
suggested.

FINANCIAL MATHEMATICS
Financial mathematics is a field of applied mathematics, concerned
with financial markets. The subject has a close relationship with the
discipline of financial economics, which is concerned with much of the
underlying theory that is involved in financial mathematics.
Generally, mathematical finance will derive, and extend,
the mathematical or numerical models suggested by financial economics.
In terms of practice, mathematical finance also overlaps heavily with the
field of computational finance (also known as financial engineering .
Arguably, these are largely synonymous, although the latter focuses on
application, while the former focuses on modeling and derivation
(see: Quantitative analyst). The field is largely focused on the modeling
of derivatives, although other important subfields include insurance
mathematics and quantitative portfolio problems. See Outline of finance:
Mathematical tools; Outline of finance: Derivatives pricing.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE
SERVICES
Foreign exchange services are provided by many banks and
specialist foreign exchange brokers around the world. Foreign
exchange services include:
Currency exchange- where clients can purchase and sell foreign
currency banknotes.
Wire transfer - where clients can send funds to international banks
abroad.
Remittance - where clients that are migrant workers send money
back to their home country.
FINANCIAL EXPORT
A financial export is a financial service provided by a
domestic firm (regardless of ownership) to a foreign firm or
individual. While financial services such as banking, insurance
and investment management are often seen as a domestic
service, an increasing proportion of financial services are
now being handled abroad, in other financial centres, for a
variety of reasons. Some smaller financial centers, such
as Bermuda, Luxembourg, and the Cayman Islands, lack
sufficient size for a domestic financial services sector and
have developed a role providing services to non-residents
as offshore financial centres. The increasing competitiveness
of financial services has meant that some countries, such as
Japan, which were self-sufficient have increasingly imported
financial services.
