Abstract

The paper focuses on how risk management may influence the value of a company. Situation is discussed with models of Modigliani - Miller - Fama and their assumptions in the background. After the basic explications of the afore mentioned models and of the decision-making rule for investments, particular states where risk management may add value are analyzed. An attention is paid mainly to costs of taxation and financial distress, underinvestment and asset substitution.
