Book Description
Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2006 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: B+, University of Applied Sciences Essen, course: International Finance, 20 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: The public export finance is one of the most extensive sources of finance. All export credit agencies are subject to internationally valid rules, which are respected with the distribution of warranties. Apart from the promotion of exports, export credit agencies offer their services with public funds but without public control - also foreign direct investments in emerging markets in the south as well as east and southeast European countries like the successor countries of the Soviet Union. With the allocation of public warranties there are missing controls considering aspects of the environment and the society which enables the promotion of social-, environmental- and cultural-incompatible projects. Export credit agencies are the most important public financial source still before the World Bank and the public development aid when it comes to private investments, infrastructure buildings and heavy industry.1 Successful foreign business transactions need an equally successful financing, qualitatively according to products to be exported. Therefore, a longterm planning is necessary due to the fact that there is a long term frame from the placing of order to the receipt of money. These phases need to be brigded financially because expenses for empoyees and distributors are incurred. Commercial banks and special financing companies therefore offer various finance opportunities.

Financing Pulp Mills: An Appraisal of Risk Assessment and Safeguard Procedures
Author: Machteld Spek
Publisher: CIFOR
ISBN: 9792446125
Category : Electronic books
Languages : en
Pages : 104
Book Description
This study analyses the risk assessment and socio-environmental safeguard procedures associated with the financing of pulp mill projects. The type and cost of the fibre source is clearly key to the economic competitiveness of any pulp mill. Nevertheless, investment institutions often carry out only limited assessment of the fibre source of the proposed mill. Although a growing number of financial institutions have adopted policies to employ social and environmental safeguard screening for investments in developing countries and transitioning economies, the scope of such screenings is in fact quite limited and they are often implemented ineffectively.

EU Supervision of Credit Rating Agencies

Pages : 76
Book Description
"The 2008 financial crisis focused attention on the credit rating agencies and their impact on financial markets. At the time, there was very little regulation of the agencies in Europe. In 2011, the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) was created to register, monitor and supervise them. This report examines whether ESMA has successfully established itself as the credit rating agencies watchdog for the EU. We conclude that while ESMA has laid down good foundations, its rules and guidelines are not yet complete and significant risks remain to be addressed in the future."--Publisher's description.

On Their Own Terms
Author: Benjamin A. Elman
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674036476
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 606
Book Description
In On Their Own Terms, Benjamin A. Elman offers a much-needed synthesis of early Chinese science during the Jesuit period (1600-1800) and the modern sciences as they evolved in China under Protestant influence (1840s-1900). By 1600 Europe was ahead of Asia in producing basic machines, such as clocks, levers, and pulleys, that would be necessary for the mechanization of agriculture and industry. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, Elman shows, Europeans still sought from the Chinese their secrets of producing silk, fine textiles, and porcelain, as well as large-scale tea cultivation. Chinese literati borrowed in turn new algebraic notations of Hindu-Arabic origin, Tychonic cosmology, Euclidian geometry, and various computational advances. Since the middle of the nineteenth century, imperial reformers, early Republicans, Guomindang party cadres, and Chinese Communists have all prioritized science and technology. In this book, Elman gives a nuanced account of the ways in which native Chinese science evolved over four centuries, under the influence of both Jesuit and Protestant missionaries. In the end, he argues, the Chinese produced modern science on their own terms.

Age of Discovery
Author: Ian Goldin
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 1250085101
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
The present is a contest between the bright and dark sides of discovery. To avoid being torn apart by its stresses, we need to recognize the fact—and gain courage and wisdom from the past. Age of Discovery shows how. Now is the best moment in history to be alive, but we have never felt more anxious or divided. Human health, aggregate wealth and education are flourishing. Scientific discovery is racing forward. But the same global flows of trade, capital, people and ideas that make gains possible for some people deliver big losses to others—and make us all more vulnerable to one another. Business and science are working giant revolutions upon our societies, but our politics and institutions evolve at a much slower pace. That’s why, in a moment when everyone ought to be celebrating giant global gains, many of us are righteously angry at being left out and stressed about where we’re headed. To make sense of present shocks, we need to step back and recognize: we’ve been here before. The first Renaissance, the time of Columbus, Copernicus, Gutenberg and others, likewise redrew all maps of the world, democratized communication and sparked a flourishing of creative achievement. But their world also grappled with the same dark side of rapid change: social division, political extremism, insecurity, pandemics and other unintended consequences of discovery. Now is the second Renaissance. We can still flourish—if we learn from the first.
