Types of decisions that Financial Managers make
Financial managers play a key role in making critical financial management decisions. In
essence, the core elements of financial decision-making process entail investment, financing as
well as dividend decisions. Investment decisions that financial managers make revolve around
capital budgeting decisions of a firm and encompasses the amount of assets that a firm should
possess, the respective composition of the firm’s assets and the risk features associated with the
firm. Investment decisions form the most crucial financial decision that a financial manager can
make as it entails an assessment of funds that a firm holds and efficient utilization of such funds
for wealth maximization. Financial managers make investment decisions to help a firm in taking
up new projects, expanding the existing businesses, research and development projects,
replacement of fixed assets as well as reallocation of funds (Pandey, 2015).
Financing decisions on the other hand, deal with ways of financing investment projects
and other financial commitments undertaken by the firm. Financing decisions essentially deal
with the best ways of financing new projects or assets as well as the best financing mix for the
company. Dividend decision is the third major decision that a financial manager makes and it
deals with the distribution of returns to investors who contributed their capital to the firm. The
duty of a financial manager is to formulate policies related to earnings that aid in the distribution
of dividends among the firm’s shareholders (Pandey, 2015).
