Financial management of investment projects

摘要

Financial Management is a process having as its primary objective the optimization of financial and economic benefits from an investment. Although viewed and managed as a process, it comprises multiple processes, including financial accounting, management (and cost) accounting, assets accounting, cash and money markets accounting, financial reporting, internal controls and internal audit, with external audit providing a report and opinion on the reported financial status and performance. Each of these processes, including financial management itself, should incorporate sub-processes and techniques, including management, forecasting, strategic planning, planning and budgeting, organizing, procurement, disbursements, control and communications.
