Corporate Finance: A New Perspective
Jennifer Itzkowitz, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Dept. of Finance
Over the past few decades both the prevalence and importance of buyer-supplier (business-to-business) relationships have increased among American companies. Research discusses the costs and benefits of buyer-supplier relationships and their implications for firm financing and valuation.
