International financial management deals with the financial decisions taken in the area of international business. It covers

planning, organizing, directing and controlling of money value in foreign exchange. The growth in international business

is evident in the form of highly inflated size of international trade. The nature of the movement of funds become so

complex that proper management and deeper levels of study of International Finance Management has become highly

relevant. In fact International Finance Management suggests the most suitable technique to be applied at a particular

moment and in a particular case in order to hedge the risk.

The conference brings together researchers from academia, industry and regulatory organizations to deliberate on

theoretical work, empirical findings and policy implications related to international financial management structure and
