El claustro del Instituto de Empresa cuenta con un nuevo doctor
Javier Vega, profesor del área de Dirección Financiera, defendió el pasado 21 de octubre su Tesis
Doctoral en la Facultad de Ciencias Económicas de la Universidad Complutense, obteniendo la máxima
calificación por unanimidad.
Bajo el título El Concepto de Valor y su Aplicación a las Finanzas de Empresa, la tesis ofrece una
visión de conjunto de la metodología que se aplica en la valoración de empresas, haciendo especial
énfasis en los procedimientos que utilizan el descuento de rentas para calcular el valor actual.
La tesis incluye cinco capítulos que desarrollan el tema desde diferentes perspectivas:
evolución histórica de las teorías del valor, coherencia e integración de los diferentes
modelos aparecidos en el siglo XX, valoración de instituciones financieras, modelos de creación
de valor y valoración de empresas que no encuentran referentes en el mercado.
Nuestra más sincera enhorabuena al nuevo Doctor.
