If so, you need to know how sound the business is – and if the financial crisis has taught us anything, it is that a company is not always as healthy as its profits might suggest.

How do you tell whether a company is well run and doing well?
Which ratios and benchmarks should be used to assess performance?
What are the tell-Tale signs that a company has massaged its results?
How can you recognize the danger signs one the corporate horizon?
How do you make comparisons between companies in different sectors or countries?
Completely updated and revised, and now incorporating international reporting standards, this sixth edition offers a clear, comprehensive and global guide to making an informed judgement on the performance of any business.
