Globalization has in turn spurred competition and consequently innovation. Sustainable competitive advantage is an increasingly difficult proposition in this environment, a fact which raises a number of issues for organizations: how to create and manage value, how to improve an organization's capabilities to respond and adapt, how to manage the effect of competition on industry structures and how to foster and manage innovation. € In response to these issues one concept is having an impact and influence on organizations. Real options, a form of advanced financial analysis, apply financial options theory to real assets. The concept offers a framework that can link value to risk and uncertainty, and the ability to manage the strategic opportunities that lie in an increasingly dynamic environment. Updated and revised, this second edition illustrates the issues with detailed case studies Notes Previous edition: Basingstoke : Palgrave, 2002 Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Subject Corporations -- Finance.
