Preface
The collection of essays we include in this issue of Financial Science magazine shows the constant interest of authors in the current problems of the capital market and investment. The reader can also find here research works covering the area of managing healthcare and corporate finance. The initial field of research is well represented by authors such as Magdalena Homa, Monika Mościbrodzka and Piotr Zasępa. It also contains the paper by Bartłomiej Jabłoński and Jacek Kuczowic. The problem of a broadly defined financing and managing healthcare is presented in the paper by Agnieszka Bem and Paulina Ucieklak-Jeż. As far as the notion of corporate finance is concerned, we include the articles by Paweł Mielcarz and Dmytro Osiichuk. The thematic range of scientific research materials is so diverse that we can expect the present issue to become a point of interest on the reading list, also owing to its variety.
