Government, Business and ROTW

Today's first class started with a discussion about institutions and their influence in business decisions. The topic was very vague and I didnt know where the whole lecture was being driven at. But, this is the first lecture. Information asymmetry, agency costs, risk etc were some of the topics touched upon today. All this was quantitatively analysed and verified in Corporate Finance. Now, this is a different perspective.

Our evaluation for this course is a written paper based on any government policy and its influence on industry decisions, or something in those lines. Key points to note for while writing the paper:

"Please make sure that there are no spelling mistakes. Especially, when you talk about public goods, dont miss out the L."

By the way, ROTW stands for Rest Of The World
