1.1 CORPORATE FINANCE AND THE
FINANCIAL MANAGER
In this section we discuss where the financial manager fits in the
corporation. We start by defining corporate finance and the financial
manager’s job.
1. What long-term investments should you make? That is, what lines of
business will you be in, and what sorts of buildings, machinery and
equipment will you need?
2. Where will you get the long-term financing to pay for your investment?
Will you bring in other owners, or will you borrow the money?
3. How will you manage your everyday financial activities, such as
collecting from customers and paying suppliers?
These are not the only questions by any means, but they are among the
most important. Corporate finance, broadly speaking, is the study of ways
to answer these three questions. Accordingly, we’ll be looking at each of
them in the chapters ahead.

produced similar effects, though in this case they were probably
modified by the necessity of combating the remains of heathen
religions which there lingered. The growing political power of the
Catholic Church even before the conversion of Constantine probably
drove the Valentinians to form separate communities wherever they
were in sufficient numbers to do so, and thus is explained the
possession by them of the “houses of prayer” of which the
Constantinian Decree above quoted professes to deprive them. On
the confines of the Empire and in provinces so far distant from the
capital as Mesopotamia, these heretical communities probably
lingered longer than in other places, and may have enjoyed, as in
the case of Bardesanes, the protection and countenance of the
native kinglets. Even here, however, the employment of the secular
arm which its alliance with the State gave to the Church seems to
have eventually forced them into an attitude of hostility towards it, as
is shown by the “rabbling” of one of their conventicles in the way
before mentioned. The accession of Julian brought them a
temporary respite[456]; but on his death in the Persian campaign, the
retreat of the Roman eagles probably gave them their quietus. Only
in Egypt, it would seem, did their doctrines succeed in gaining
anything like a permanent resting-place. Elsewhere, the rise of new
heresies and especially of Manichaeism drove them out of their last
strongholds.
Valentinianism, therefore, approved itself a stop-gap or temporary
faith, which for two hundred years[457] acted as a halfway house
between heathenism and Christianity. In this capacity, it was
singularly efficient, and was one of the forces which enabled, as
Renan said, the ancient world to change from Paganism to
Christianity without knowing it. In particular, it seems to have
attracted to itself the attention of the learned and leisured class who
were endeavouring, earnestly if somewhat timidly, to work out a rule
of faith and conduct from the welter of creeds and philosophies with
which the Empire was swamped during the first Christian centuries.
Such a class is not that out of which martyrs are made, and is sure
sooner or later to acquiesce in the opinions of the majority; but we
may be certain that the learned and polite Valentinians would have
listened with natural disgust to the simple and enthusiastic
declamations of Jewish fishermen and artizans which had for their
chief theme the coming destruction and overthrow of the social
system in which they had grown up. The brilliant, if baseless,
speculations of Valentinus, which even now have a certain attraction
for the lovers of mysticism[458], gave them exactly the kind of spiritual
pabulum they craved for, and enabled them to wait in hope and
patience until Christianity, forcing its way upward, as religions
generally do, from the lowest class of society, had become the faith
of the governing ranks. In this way, Valentinianism was probably one
of the best recruiting grounds for the Catholic Church, and Renan is
doubtless right when he says that no one who passed from
Paganism through the Gnosticism of Valentinus and his fellows ever
reverted to his former faith. Yet Valentinianism itself was doomed to
but a short life, and in its original form probably did not survive its
founder by much more than a century and a half. One of its later
developments we shall see in the next chapter.
CHAPTER X
THE SYSTEM OF THE PISTIS SOPHIA AND ITS
RELATED TEXTS[459]
“The mystery who is without the world, through whom all things
exist, he is the giving forth and the lifting up of all and he has put
forth all the emanations and the things which are in them all. And
it is through him that all the mysteries exist and all their places.
Come unto us, for we are thy fellows and thy members[473]! We
are one with thee, for thou and we are one. This is the First
Mystery which existed since the beginning in the Ineffable One
before he [i.e. the First Mystery] went forth, and we all are his
name[474].
“Now therefore we all await thee at the last boundary which is
the last mystery from within[475]. This also is part of us. Now
therefore we have sent to thee thy vesture which is thine from
the beginning, which thou didst place in the last boundary, which
is the last boundary from within, until the time should be fulfilled
according to the commandment of the First Mystery. And now
that the time is fulfilled, clothe thyself in it! Come unto us, for we
all stand near to thee that we may clothe thee with all the glory of
the First Mystery by His command. Which glory is as two
vestures, besides that which we have sent unto thee. For thou
art worthy of them since thou art preferred before us and wast
made before us. Wherefore the First Mystery has sent thee by us
the mystery of all his glory, which is as two vestures. In the first is
the glory of all the names of all the mysteries and of all the
emanations which are in the ranks of the receptacles of the
Ineffable One. And in the second vesture is the glory of the
names of all the mysteries and of all the emanations which are in
the ranks of the two receptacles of the First Mystery. And in this
vesture which we have sent thee now, is the glory of the name of
the Recorder who is the First Precept[476], and the mystery of the
Five Marks[477], and the mystery of the great Legate of the
Ineffable One who is the same as that Great Light[478], and the
mystery of the Five Prohegumeni who are the same as the Five
Parastatae[479]. And there is also in that vesture the glory of the
name of the mystery of all the ranks of the emanations of the
Treasure-house of Light, and of their Saviours, and the ranks of
those ranks which are the Seven Amen and which are the Seven
Sounds, and also the Five Trees[480] and also the Three Amen,
and also the Saviour of the Twins who is the boy of a boy[481],
and the mystery of the Nine Guards of the Three Gates of the
Treasure-house of Light. And there is also within it the glory of
the name which is on the right, and of all those who are in the
middle. And there also is the glory of the name of the Great
Unseen One, who is the Great Forefather[482], and the mysteries
of the Three Triple Powers, and the mystery of all their places,
and the mystery of all their unseen ones, and of all the dwellers
in the Thirteenth Aeon, and the name of the Twelve Aeons with
all their Archons, all their Archangels, all their Angels and all the
dwellers in the Twelve Aeons, and all the mystery of the name of
all the dwellers in Heimarmene[483], and all the heavens, and the
whole mystery of the name of all the dwellers in the Sphere and
their firmaments with all they contain and their places. Lo, then,
we have sent unto thee this vesture, which none knoweth from
the First Precept downward, because that the glory of its light
was hidden within it, and the Spheres and all the places from the
First Precept downward knew it not. Hasten, then, do on the
vesture, and come unto us, for we have remained near thee to
clothe thee with these two vestures by the command of the First
Mystery until the time fixed by the Ineffable One should be
fulfilled. Now, then, the time is fulfilled. Come unto us quickly,
that we may clothe thee with them until thou hast accomplished
the entire ministry of the completion of the First Mystery, the
ministry which has been laid upon thee by the Ineffable One.
Come then unto us quickly in order that we may clothe thee with
them according to the command of the First Mystery. For yet a
little while, a very little while, and thou wilt cease to be in the
world. Come then quickly, that thou mayest receive all the glory
which is the glory of the First Mystery.”
The only ceremony to which such grace as is here set forth was
likely to be attributed by any Christian in the early age of the Church
was that of Baptism. It was called by writers like Gregory of
Nazianza and Chrysostom a μυστήριον[571]; while we hear as early
as St Paul’s time of “those who are baptized over [or on behalf of]
the dead” (βαπτιξόμενοι ὑπὲρ τῶν νεκρῶν)[572], the theory being,
according to Döllinger, that those who had wished during their lives
to receive baptism but had not done so, could thus obtain the benefit
of the prayers of the Church, which could not be offered for an
unbaptized person[573]. So much was this the case with some sects,
that it was an offence charged by writers like Tertullian against the
Valentinians that they were in the habit of delaying baptism as long
as possible and even of putting it off till they were about to die[574], as
in the case in the text. Baptism, too, was spoken of in sub-Apostolic
times as the “seal” (σφραγίς)[575], or impress, which may be that
which the soul has to exhibit, both in the Ophite system and in that of
the Pistis Sophia, to the rulers of the next world. In any event, the rite
was looked upon by Catholic and heretic alike as an initiation or
commencement of the process by which man was united with Christ.
The other eleven “mysteries of the First Mystery” are not specifically
described in the Pistis Sophia; but it is said that the receiving of any
one of them will free its recipient’s soul from all necessity to show
seals or defences to the lesser powers and will exalt him after his
death to the rank of a king in the kingdom of light, although it will not
make him equal to those who have received the mystery of the
Ineffable One[576]. It therefore seems probable that these “twelve
mysteries of the First Mystery” all refer to the rite of baptism, and are
called twelve instead of one only to accord with some trifling juggling
with words and letters such as was common with the followers of
Valentinus[577]. That baptism was held in the sub-Apostolic age to be,
in the words of Döllinger, “not a mere sign, pledge, or symbol of
grace, but an actual communication of it wrought by the risen and
glorified Christ on the men He would convert and sanctify, and a
