Owain Johnson
R1,456 Discovery Miles 14 560 Ships in 9 - 17 working days

Every consumer in a modern economy is indirectly exposed to the work of a price reporting agency (PRA) each time they fill up their car, take a flight or switch on a light, and yet the general public is completely unaware of the existence of PRAs. Firms like Platts, Argus and ICIS, which are referenced every day by commodity traders and which influence billions of dollars of trade, are totally unfamiliar to consumers. The Price Reporters: A Guide to PRAs and Commodity Benchmarks brings the mysterious world of price reporting out of the shadows for the first time, providing a comprehensive guide to the agencies that set the world's commodity prices. This book explains the importance of PRAs to the global commodities industry, highlighting why PRAs affect every consumer around the world. It introduces the individual PRAs, their history and the current state of play in the industry, and also presents the challenges that the PRA industry is facing now and in the future, in particular how regulation might impact on the PRAs, their relationships with commodity exchanges, and their likely direction. This is the first-ever guide to PRAs and is destined to become the standard reference work for anyone with an interest in commodity prices and the firms that set them.

Investment Strategies in Emerging Markets (Hardcover, illustrated edition): Saul Estrin, Klaus E. Meyer Investment Strategies in Emerging Markets (Hardcover, illustrated edition)
Saul Estrin, Klaus E. Meyer
R4,179 Discovery Miles 41 790 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Foreign investment has surged across emerging markets. This unique comparative study presents the first systematic evidence on the entry mode, business environment and their interrelationships in emerging markets. It integrates strategic management and economic policy analysis, and provides new insights for both business managers and government policymakers. The book investigates foreign direct investment (FDI) strategies in four important emerging economies: Egypt, India, South Africa and Vietnam. These countries liberalized their economies in the 1990s with the intention of attracting greater FDI inflows. This book assesses whether they have been successful in achieving this goal. The authors adopt a comparative perspective, and use a large enterprise survey plus three individual case studies in each country. They investigate the strategies of foreign direct investors, focusing on the relationship between the investment climate, the mode of entry (acquisition, greenfield or joint venture), company performance, and spillovers to the host economy. The book outlines how the interactions between international businesses and the local policy environment influence the entry strategies of firms. Academics and researchers with an interest in international business, emerging markets, economic development and strategic management will find this book informative and insightful.

Quantitative Modeling of Derivative Securities - From Theory To Practice (Hardcover): Peter Laurence Quantitative Modeling of Derivative Securities - From Theory To Practice (Hardcover)
Peter Laurence
R4,494 Discovery Miles 44 940 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Quantitative Modeling of Derivative Securities demonstrates how to take the basic ideas of arbitrage theory and apply them - in a very concrete way - to the design and analysis of financial products. Based primarily (but not exclusively) on the analysis of derivatives, the book emphasizes relative-value and hedging ideas applied to different financial instruments. Using a "financial engineering approach," the theory is developed progressively, focusing on specific aspects of pricing and hedging and with problems that the technical analyst or trader has to consider in practice.

More than just an introductory text, the reader who has mastered the contents of this one book will have breached the gap separating the novice from the technical and research literature.

The Space Value of Money - Rethinking Finance Beyond Risk & Time (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2022): Armen V. Papazian The Space Value of Money - Rethinking Finance Beyond Risk & Time (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2022)
Armen V. Papazian
R1,478 Discovery Miles 14 780 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

The Space Value of Money introduces a fresh and innovative perspective on sustainability and finance. It expands our financial value framework, heretofore built around risk and time, by factoring in space, as an analytical dimension and our physical context. The proposed principle and metrics entrench our responsibility for space impact into our value equations, making finance inherently sustainable and acting as a theoretical bridge between core finance theory and the growing field of sustainable finance or ESG integration. The book offers a novel approach to value design, measurement, and creation, discussing the theoretical, mathematical, institutional, technological and data elements of the transformation. The Space Value of Money principle and metrics offer us the opportunity to adjust our financial value framework and transform human productivity in line with our sustainability targets. They also enable the design and engineering of the financial instruments that can help us address our evolutionary challenges/investment, like the transition to Net Zero. "Every once in a while, a book comes along that makes a fundamental contribution that is both profound and practical. A book that every member of the National Space Council, including the NASA Administrator and the Space Force chief of space operations should read. The Space Value of Money will be of interest to ESG and impact investors, government regulators, financial theorists, and outer space enthusiasts." -Lt Col Peter Garretson, Senior Fellow in Defense Studies at the American Foreign Policy Council "No doubt, the pressing environmental challenges we face make the concept of the space impact of investments even more compelling." -Dr. Pascal Blanque, Chairman of Amundi Institute, Former Group CIO of Amundi Asset Management "The Space Value of Money brings much needed conceptual rigour, whilst further advocating the case for a new paradigm shift in financial valuation. This work gives us the lasting frameworks that aggregate impact across all spatial dimensions. Dr. Papazian culminates over ten years of research in this rich book, providing the springboard for further innovation and system implementation in this area." -Domenico Del Re, Director, Sustainability and Climate Change, PwC "Enthralling and captivating. Papazian offers a clear, thorough, and comprehensive discussion. The Space Value of Money gives us an opportunity to reframe our thinking and to explore what is possible. A great read!" -Daud Vicary, Founding Trustee of the Responsible Finance and Investment Foundation "Armen has developed a novel way to create financial models that are better suited to dealing with the many parameters required if we are to properly consider environmental factors and sustainability in economics and finance. I have found this engaging and look forward to seeing its future use." -Dr. Keith Carne, First Bursar, King's College, Cambridge University

Japanese Banking and Investment in the United States - An Assessment of Their Impact Upon U.S. Markets and Institutions... Japanese Banking and Investment in the United States - An Assessment of Their Impact Upon U.S. Markets and Institutions (Hardcover, New)
Peter Rose
R2,771 Discovery Miles 27 710 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book examines in detail the timely area of Japanese banking and investment activities in the United States, and offers a clear picture of both the causes of the recent growth of foreign investment activity and the consequences of this trend for American companies, households, and government agencies. Peter S. Rose argues that multiple factors have shaped the growing roles played by Japanese banks in the U.S. financial system and by Japanese investors in the U.S. economy, but remains optimistic that this is not necessarily a cause for alarm.

Rose provides a detailed look at nearly every aspect of Japan's involvement in the U.S. financial sector, as well as offering a useful overview of the banking and financial system of Japan. Among the causes of Japanese expansion that Rose discusses are the rapid appreciation of the Japanese yen in international markets, Japan's large trade surpluses with the U.S., the high personal savings rate of the Japanese, periodically depressed U.S. stock prices, and the low barriers to entry into most U.S. markets. Also fully detailed are the consequences of possible reductions in Japanese financial activity, which could be felt in the U.S. through higher domestic interest rates, a reduction in the creation of new jobs, rising unemployment, reduced availability of long-term capital, and a slackening in the growth of U.S. output. This unique work will be an important reference tool for professionals in the banking, finance, and securities industries, for public policy makers and bank regulatory agencies, and for students and researchers of international banking and finance.

Beating the Bear - Lessons from the 1929 Crash Applied to Today's World (Hardcover): Harold Bierman Jr Beating the Bear - Lessons from the 1929 Crash Applied to Today's World (Hardcover)
Harold Bierman Jr
R1,705 Discovery Miles 17 050 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book reexamines the economic crash of 1929 and compares the event to the modern stock market crash of 2008-2009. Twice in the last century the usually stalwart economy of United States has crumbled—first in 1929, when the stock market crash that led to the Great Depression hit, and again with the financial market meltdown of 2008-2009 that is still crippling much of America. While it is still too soon to state unequivocally how this latest economic disaster came about, it is possible to theorize that much of what has happened could have been foreseen and even avoided—just as it could have been in 1929. This book accurately describes the economic situations in the United States before the 1929 and 2008-2009 stock market crashes, and carefully examines the causes of both financial crises. This comprehensive assessment of both time periods allows readers to better grasp the present market situation, understand the connection between the explosion of the sub-prime mortgage market and the current state of the economy, and more wisely forecast the future.

Offshore Financial Centers, Accounting Services and the Global Economy (Hardcover): Don E. Garner, David L. McKee, Yosra... Offshore Financial Centers, Accounting Services and the Global Economy (Hardcover)
Don E. Garner, David L. McKee, Yosra AbuAmara McKee
R2,772 Discovery Miles 27 720 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The new global climate of free enterprise has brought with it a proliferation of offshore financial centers that presumably have important roles to play in the emergent global economy. The air of secrecy that appears to pervade the activities of offshore financial centers may well slant or obscure any real understanding of the functions of such centers. The authors investigate the role of major international accounting firms and their services in the processes of business facilitation in the locations that host these centers. By focusing the investigation upon the role of the accounting firms in offshore financial centers, the authors gain a better grasp of the real or potential impacts of the firms in the global economy and in the jurisdictions that host them. Not only do the authors provide a detailed assessment of what the major accounting firms are actually doing in the centers, but they point out what attributes are needed by jurisdictions hoping to succeed as offshore financial centers. The centers included are Antigua, Barbuda, the Bahamas, Barbados, Bermuda, the Cayman Islands, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Gibraltar, Malta, Cyprus, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Mauritius, the Seychelles, Singapore, and Vanuatu.

The authors describe the legal and institutional environments facing business operations in general and the accounting firms in particular in offshore financial centers. By studying these operations, it should show what they are doing in terms of facilitating the international activities that flow through such centers. It should also add to the understanding of the potential that offshore activities have as vehicles for development in small emerging economies. This study should be of interest to a wide range of business disciplines, as well as governmental agencies in advanced and emerging nations, international agencies such as regional development banks, and accountants and the international financial community.
