This book explores the relationship between company finances and competition, proposing that common business practices may increase susceptibility to predatory behaviour. The author presents a new theory, known as 'predation theory'. This theory states that when a company secures its financial position through external sources, it is more likely to face predatory practices from competitors. The author argues that accessing external investment to offset operational costs, such as through venture capital or loans, creates a risk of 'predation' by rivals. This method of financing often requires adherence to strict performance targets and may force companies to accept unfavourable terms. As a result, competitors may deliberately take actions that reduce the company's profit margins, ultimately forcing it out of the market. The author also considers the concept of 'deep pockets' - when companies have ample financial resources - and argues that this can also lead to increased predation. The book contends that the common practice of using external financing to cover upfront costs could lead to a higher probability of underhanded tactics from competitors. It presents a sophisticated analysis of the interaction between financial strategy and aggressive market behaviour, highlighting the nuances and complexities present in the corporate world. The book's insights contribute to our understanding of business dynamics and the interplay between financial decisions and competitive advantage.
