Financial Management
What is financial management?
It’s an area of business management, it is evolving subject, it aims at
judicial use of capital and careful selection of sources of capital.
Finance management
F. M. deals with
Procurement of Utilisation of
fund (cost, risk fund (cost of
and control) procurement)
NATURE OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
• What is the nature of financial management?
• It is an indispensible organ of business finance.
• A business cannot run without financial management.
• It cannot be kept secluded, it has to be a integral organ of the business itself because procuring
finance, utilizing aid, then follow ups, this is a process which cannot go alone, it has to be hand in
hand with the business organization.
• Now it’s a continuous process because it’s not a onetime decision, it’s a regular decision; it’s
evolving day by day. It’s not that at special occasions, I need to call my financial manger and take a
decision.
NATURE OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
• It is also one of the aspects of financial management that on special occasions, there demand is
higher but during day to day activity also, I need to take my financial decisions, in dividend
payouts, I have to take my financial decisions, so it’s a continuous process, then it’s less
descriptive and more analytical.
• It’s not a descriptive subject; it’s analytical where I have to use my skills, competence to apply
the funds in the most appropriate resources.
• It’s different from accounting function, accounting deals with recording of transaction after it
has taken place, while financial management is a pre hand process, it comes before accounting,
where financial management ends, accounting starts.
NATURE OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
• So it’s a broader concept where we need to make the projects, evaluate them, we
have to take decisions, then comes the final transaction
• It helps the decision of top management.
• Decision making process becomes easy with the help of financial management
where elaborate reports are prepared, analytical reviews have been done, cash
flows, fund flows are prepared, to know the short term positions, this way it’s a
very crucial part of business.
Profit Maximization
What is profit maximization?
Profit maximization is considered as the goal of financial management. Maximizing the profit is an
implied objective and therefore it’s natural to retain it as the goal of financial management.
The profit is regarded as a yardstick for measuring the economic efficiency of any firm. Had all
business of the society work out for maximization of the profit. There would have been efficient,
economic and profitable utilization of resources. There had been minimum wastage.
In this approach, action that increases profit should be undertaken and the actions which reduce the
profit, we need to avoid those actions.
Profit Maximization
• What are the short comings of profit maximizations?
Firstly it ignores risk, there is a direct relationship between risk and profit, higher the risk,
higher the possibility of profit.
If profit maximization is the only goal, risk factor is all together avoided or ignored.
Therefore finance managers will accept the proposals with which risk are highly associated.
That means they enter into risky project in order to earn profit and that is not exactly
certain profit, that’s a possible profit, they may enter into a risky transaction and can face
loses. So the first short coming is ignoring risk factor.
Profit Maximization
Profit maximization’s scope is narrow; profit maximization objective is too narrow.
It fails to consider social consideration; social consideration means various related
groups like consumers, government, interest of workers are all together ignored.
So ethical trade practices are not followed as required under profit maximization
and if these factors are ignored, company cannot survive long.
It will become a short sited policy to go for profit maximization only.
WEALTH MAXIMIZATION
• The objective of the firm is to maximize its wealth. Wealth means its value.
• Value of firm means its market price that is market price of company’s common
stock, common stock means its share, so where the objective of the firm is to
maximize its market price is called wealth maximization objective.
• The market price of a share of a company serves as a performance index.
Performance index means it’s a report card of the firm, its progress, it indicates
how well the management is doing on behalf of share holders.
WEALTH MAXIMIZATION
• On one hand where profit maximization widens the gap between management and share holders,
wealth maximization works as a coordinator between management and share holders.
• Many other factors also affect market price of share at a given point of time.
• The market price of a share is a function of two factors, firstly earning per share and second is
capitalization rate.
• So market price per share is computed as earning per share divided by capitalization rate.
Therefore finance manager need to insure that earning per share are optimum, keeping in view,
risk and other factors.
WEALTH MAXIMIZATION
• Wealth maximization decision criteria is also known as value maximization or net present
value maximization. Value maximization is widely accepted as appropriate operational
decision criteria for financial management.
• It removes all those technical limitations of profit maximization criteria. The measure of
wealth used in financial management is the economic value or net present value
method. Economic value means net present value; it is calculated by discounting the
future cash flows using appropriate
• rate reflecting risk associated with the project.
WEALTH MAXIMIZATION
• The risk is mitigating by applying discounting rate over the future cash flows to a
certain extent, so we can find out the future values in present term while
eliminating interest elements using that capitalization rate.
• This capitalization rate is cut off rate, is called cost of capital and lastly, it posses
three requirements of suitable operational objective of financial course of action.
Nature and Scope of Finance Management

financial resources in the most optimal manner

funds, cash flow, money, etc.

Financial Instruments
Financial instruments are contracts or assets that can be traded or used
for investment, hedging, or raising capital.
They represent a form of financial value that can be transferred,
bought, or sold in financial markets.
Financial instruments allow individuals, companies, and governments

3 Types of Financial Instruments
• Money market instruments.
• Capital market instruments.
• Hybrid instruments.
Money Market
The money market can be defined as a market for
short-term money and financial assets that are near
substitutes for money.
The term short-term means generally a period upto
one year and near substitutes to money is used to
denote any financial asset which can be quickly
converted into money with minimum transaction cost.
Money market instruments
1. Call/Notice Money
2. Treasury Bills
3. Term Money
4. Certificate of Deposit
5. Commercial Papers
Call /Notice-Money Market
• Call/Notice money is the money borrowed or lent on demand
for a very short period. When money is borrowed or lent for a
day, it is known as Call (Overnight) Money.
• Intervening holidays and/or Sunday are excluded for this
purpose. Thus money, borrowed on a day and repaid on the
next working day, (irrespective of the number of intervening
holidays) is "Call Money".
• When money is borrowed or lent for more than a day and up to
14 days, it is "Notice Money". No collateral security is required
to cover these transactions.
Inter-Bank Term Money
• Inter-bank market for deposits of maturity beyond 14
days is referred to as the term money market.
• The entry restrictions are the same as those for Call/Notice
Money except that, as per existing regulations, the specified
entities are not allowed to lend beyond 14 days.
Treasury Bills
• Treasury Bills are short term (up to one year) borrowing
instruments issued by the Government of India as a promissory
note with guaranteed repayment at a later date.
• It is an IOU of the Government. It is a promise by the Government to
pay a stated sum after expiry of the stated period from the date of issue
(14/91/182/364 days i.e. less than one year).
• They are issued at a discount to the face value, and on maturity the
face value is paid to the holder. The rate of discount and the
corresponding issue price are determined at each auction.
Certificate of Deposits
• Certificates of Deposit (CDs) is a negotiable money
market instrument and issued in dematerialised form or
as a Usance Promissory Note, for funds deposited at a
bank or other eligible financial institution for a specified
time period.
• Guidelines for issue of CDs are presently governed by
various directives issued by the Reserve Bank of India, as
amended from time to time.
Certificate of Deposits
CDs can be issued by
i. scheduled commercial banks excluding Regional Rural
Banks (RRBs) and Local Area Banks (LABs); and
ii. select all-India Financial Institutions that have been
permitted by RBI to raise short-term resources within the
umbrella limit fixed by RBI.
Banks have the freedom to issue CDs depending on their
requirements. An FI may issue CDs within the overall
umbrella limit fixed by RBI, i.e., issue of CD together with
other instruments viz., term money, term deposits, commercial
papers and intercorporate deposits should not exceed 100 per
cent of its net owned funds, as per the latest audited balance
sheet.
Commercial Paper
• CP is a note in evidence of the debt obligation of the issuer.
On issuing commercial paper the debt obligation is
transformed into an instrument.
• CP is thus an unsecured promissory note privately placed
with investors at a discount rate to face value determined by
market forces.
• CP is freely negotiable by endorsement and delivery.
Commercial Paper
A company shall be eligible to issue CP provided –
i. the tangible net worth of the company, as per the latest
audited balance sheet, is not less than Rs. 4 crore;
ii. the working capital (fund-based) limit of the company from
the banking system is not less than Rs.4 crore and
iii. the borrowal account of the company is classified as a
Standard Asset by the financing bank/s. The minimum
maturity period of CP is 7 days. The minimum credit
rating shall be P-2 of CRISIL or such equivalent rating by
other agencies.
Merits of Commercial Paper
• Technically, it provides more
funds compared to other
sources. The cost of
commercial paper to the
issuing firm is lower than the
cost of commercial
bank loans.
• It is in freely
transferable nature, therefore
it has high liquidity also a
wide range of maturity
provide more flexibility.
Merits of Commercial Paper
• A commercial paper is highly secure and does not contain
any restrictive condition.
• Companies can save their extra funds on commercial paper
and also earn some good return on the same.
• Commercial papers produce a continuing source of funds.
This is because their maturity can be tailored to suit the
needs of issuing firm. Again, commercial paper that matures
can be repaid by selling the new commercial paper.
Limitations of Commercial Paper
• Only financially secure and highly rated organizations can
raise money through commercial papers. New and
moderately rated organizations are not in a position to raise
funds by this method.
• The amount of money that we can raise through commercial
paper is limited to the deductible liquidity available with the
suppliers of funds at a particular time.
• Commercial paper is an odd method of financing. As such if
a firm is not in a position to redeem its paper due to financial
difficulties, extending the duration of commercial paper is
not possible.

long term period i.e., more than one year period,
financial instruments; In the equity segment Equity
shares, preference shares, convertible preference shares,
non-convertible preference shares etc and In the debt
segment debentures, zero coupon bonds, deep discount

Hybrid Instruments
• Hybrid instruments have both the features of
equity and debenture. This kind of instruments
is called as hybrid instruments. Examples are
convertible debentures, warrants etc.
Hybrid Instruments
• A hybrid financial insturment is an investment that blends
chearacteristics of both equity and debt markets (stocks and
bonds).
• The most common form of a hybrid instrument is the
convertible bond, warrants.
• This type of security is an issuance of debt that can be
converted to a company's common stock at any given time. So,
it is kind of like a call option.
Hybrid Instruments
• Obviously, the major advantage of this type of security is that
if the corporations stock price goes down, the option will not
be exercised and you will still receive interest payments on
your bonds.
• However, if the stock price goes up, you can convert the
bonds to stock at a given strike price.
• If the price of the stock is above the strike price, the
convertible is considered in “in the money”.
Hybrid Instruments
• The major advantage here is security.
• There is opportunity to profit greatly on increases in stock
prices, but at worse case you will still hold the debt
security.
• The only way you can realize "real" losses is if the
corporation defaults on its debt.
Hybrid Instruments
• One disadvantage of a convertible is a low yield. Convertibles
often yield a lower interest rate than the corporations no
convertible bonds due.
• One important thing to point out when dealing with hybrid
securities is they are very difficult to accurately value, and this
misreresentation is often reflected in its market value.
• This leaves alot of opportunity for an arbitrage situation, where
a securtiy can be purchased then immediatly sold for a profit
simultaniously.
• In India money market is regulated by Reserve bank of India

holder at maturity. The difference between the two is the profit made by the investor
Banker’s acceptance is a secure financial instrument as the payment is guaranteed by
a commercial bank
Repurchase Agreements (Repo) and Reverse Repo :
Repo is a short-term borrowing instrument where one party sells a security
(usually government bonds) to another party with an agreement to repurchase
the same security at a later date, typically overnight or within a few days.

agreement to sell them back at a later date.

FINANCIAL
INSTITUTIONS
Financial Institutions
A financial institution (FI) is a company engaged in the business of dealing
with financial and monetary transactions such as deposits, loans,
investments, and currency exchange.
The major categories of financial institutions include central banks, retail
and commercial banks, internet banks, credit unions, savings and loans
associations, investment banks, investment companies, brokerage firms,
insurance companies, and mortgage companies
Characteristics of Financial Institutions
Intermediation Role: Financial institutions act as intermediaries between savers and borrowers. They collect
deposits from individuals and businesses and lend this money to those who need it, such as borrowers or
investors.
Risk Management: They help manage and mitigate financial risks. For instance, insurance companies help
individuals and businesses manage risks by providing policies that protect against uncertain events (e.g., health,
property, life risks). Investment institutions also manage investment risks by diversifying portfolios.
Liquidity: Financial institutions provide liquidity by offering instruments that can be easily converted into cash.
For example, commercial banks allow depositors to withdraw funds at any time, while mutual funds can be sold
or redeemed relatively quickly.
Capital Formation: Financial institutions facilitate the formation of capital by mobilizing savings and
channeling them into productive investments. This aids in the development of businesses, infrastructure, and the
overall economy.
Characteristics of Financial Institutions
Regulation and Supervision: Financial institutions are usually heavily regulated by government bodies to ensure stability,
transparency, and fairness. In many countries, central banks or financial regulatory authorities establish guidelines and
monitor the activities of financial institutions.
Financial Products and Services: Financial institutions offer a wide range of products and services tailored to the needs of
different customers, including:
Loans (e.g., home loans, personal loans, business loans)
Insurance (e.g., life, health, property insurance)
Investments (e.g., mutual funds, stocks, bonds)
Banking Services (e.g., savings accounts, checking accounts, credit cards)
Trust and Reliability: Financial institutions are expected to operate with a high degree of trust and reliability. Customers rely
on these institutions to safeguard their funds, provide accurate information, and act ethically in managing financial
transactions.
Diversification: Financial institutions often provide various types of financial products, which allows them to diversify their
activities and reduce risk. For example, commercial banks may offer loans, savings accounts, credit cards, and investment
services all within the same institution.
Characteristics of Financial Institutions
Profit Motive: Most financial institutions, especially private banks and investment firms, operate with a profit
motive. They generate revenue through interest on loans, fees for services, and returns on investments.
Economies of Scale: Larger financial institutions can benefit from economies of scale, where they can offer
services at lower costs due to their size and reach. This makes them more competitive and enables them to
provide better services and products.
Innovation: Financial institutions often innovate to provide new financial products and services. For example,
with the rise of digital banking, many institutions now offer online banking, mobile banking apps, and digital
wallets, making it more convenient for customers to access their accounts and manage their money.
Global Reach: Many financial institutions operate globally, providing services across countries and continents.
International banks, investment firms, and insurance companies enable global trade, investment, and finance
