THE FINANCING DECISION




            Uses of foreign finance






            • Foreign finance is used predominately by large


                companies, for the following reasons:


                    • To obtain access to finance, where local sources of


                       finance is limited.

                    • To diversify the sources of finance.


                    • To refinance existing debt.


                    • Foreign finance may be more affordable than local

                       finance.


                    • To act as a natural hedge, where the company earns

                       foreign income.
