Islamic Social Finance - Entrepreneurship, Cooperation and the Sharing Economy (Hardcover): Valentino Cattelan Islamic Social Finance - Entrepreneurship, Cooperation and the Sharing Economy (Hardcover)
Valentino Cattelan
R3,332 Discovery Miles 33 320 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The current dynamics of world economy show remarkable changes in the socio-economics of credit provision and entrepreneurship. If the emergence of the sharing economy is fostering innovative models of collaborative agency, networking and venture business, economic actors are also looking for a more sustainable development, able to foster profitability as well as community welfare. This book investigates Islamic social finance as a paramount example of this economy under change, where the balance between economic efficiency and social impact is contributing to the transformation of the market from an exchange- to a community-oriented institution. The collected essays analyse the social dimension of entrepreneurship from an Islamic perspective, highlighting the extent to which the rationales of "sharing," distribution and cooperation, affect the conceptualization of the market in Islam as a place of "shared prosperity." Moving from the conceptual "roots" of this paradigm to its operative "branches," the contributing authors also connect the most recent trends in the financial market to Shari'ah-based strategies for community welfare, hence exploring the applications of Islamic social finance from the sharing economy, FinTech and crowdfunding to microcredit, waqf, zakat, sukuk and green investments. An illuminating reference for researchers, practitioners and policy-makers dealing with the challenges of a global market where not only is diversity being perceived as a value to be fostered, but also as an important opportunity for a more inclusive economy for everybody.

Life-Cycle Costing - Using Activity-Based Costing & Monte Carlo Methods to Manage Future Costs & Risks (Hardcover): J Emblemsvag Life-Cycle Costing - Using Activity-Based Costing & Monte Carlo Methods to Manage Future Costs & Risks (Hardcover)
J Emblemsvag
R3,244 Discovery Miles 32 440 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Manage costs before they occur

"Traditional cost cutting has always had a backward focus and created lots of negative reactions–both rational and irrational. In his new book, Jan Emblemsvag introduces a new forward looking life-cycle approach to cost management. Employing foresight instead of hindsight puts the focus on processes, uncertainty and risks, and future value creation.

"The author’s strong side–besides having a good holistic concept–is the ability to express himself accurately and clearly on very complicated and sophisticated theory. Managers, consultants, and others with interest in cost management will be enlightened and inspired by the book–and no doubt find it of great help in applying the methods and processes that are presented.

"The idea of turning uncertainty into an asset for managers is quite unique. Making budgeting less data-oriented and more risk-oriented is another good idea. The next step now is to make operative approaches and apply the theory in practical situations!"
–John-Erik Stenberg
Considium Consulting Group AS

"This book skillfully combines the ideas of life-cycle costing and activity-based costing to come up with an approach to effectively manage costs in an uncertain environment."
–Dr. Arnold Schneider
Professor of Accounting
Georgia Institute of Technology

Life-Cycle Costing (LCC), a cost projection method typically associated with engineering, allows for the accurate prediction of the total costs a product will incur throughout its life-cycle. Meshing this technique with activity-based costing, risk management, and Monte Carlo analytical methods, Jan Emblemsvåg offers a broad range of businesses a new, more effective approach to cost management in Life-Cycle Costing.

By introducing uncertainty into its models, "Activity-Based LCC" offers managers the clarity of hindsight before costs are actually incurred. Among other features, Life-Cycle Costing includes:

  • Three case studies that demonstrate how Activity-Based LCC affords superior cost management
  • A step-by-step guide to LCC methodology
  • Definitions of key terms
  • A discussion of activity-based costing and risk management fundamentals
  • An appendix with examples of Monte Carlo methods

Life-Cycle Costing provides controllers and cost managers an insider’s look at the next generation of cost management techniques.

Financial Governance in East Asia - Policy Dialogue, Surveillance and Cooperation (Paperback): Gordon De Brouwer, Yunjong Wang Financial Governance in East Asia - Policy Dialogue, Surveillance and Cooperation (Paperback)

The focus of international financial reform in recent years has largely been at the global level, in terms of improving the international financial architecture, and at the national level in terms of getting domestic economic and structural policies right. But there is also a growing appetite for addressing some issues at a regional level. This debate has focused on improving regional policy dialogue and surveillance processes, as well as developing regional mechanisms to provide financial support to prevent and resolve financial crises. In East Asia, for example, governments have sought deeper regional policy dialogue by the creation of ASEAN+3 forum and enhanced financial cooperation by setting up the Chiang Mai Initiative. These developments raise many questions: What is 'best-practice' regional policy dialogue? How is a regional financial architecture complementary to the global architecture? What sorts of institutions work well at a regional level? Do regions need a regional monetary fund? What is going on in East Asia and how is it different to other regions? This volume brings together a range of policy, practical and conceptual papers to explore these and other issues.

The blend of empirical and theoretical research provides the reader with a comprehensive account of the progress made in integrating financial markets in the European Union. Integrating Financial Markets in the European Union will be essential reading for students and scholars of monetary economics, international finance and European integration.

Explore the inevitable collapse of the fiat monetary system Paper Money Collapse: The Folly of Elastic Money, Second Edition challenges the mainstream consensus on money and monetary policy. While it is today generally believed that the transition from 'hard' and inflexible commodity money (such as a gold standard) to entirely flexible and potentially unlimited fiat money under national central banks allows for superior economic stability, Paper Money Collapse shows that the opposite is true. Systems of highly elastic and constantly expanding money are not only unnecessary, even for growing economies, they are always extremely destabilizing. Over time, they must lead to substantial imbalances, including excessive levels of debt and distorted asset prices, that will require ever faster money production to sustain. Ultimately, however, there is no alternative to a complete liquidation of these distortions. Based on insights of many renowned economists and in particular of the Austrian School of Economics, the book explains through rigorous logic and in precise language why our system of flexible fiat money is incompatible with a market economy and therefore unsustainable. Paper money systems have always led to economic disintegration without exception throughout history. It will not be different for our system and we may be closer to the endgame than many think. The updated second edition incorporates: * A new introduction and an extended outlook section that discusses various "endgames" * Responses to criticisms, alternative views, and a critical assessment of 'solutions' * Comments on recent policy trends, including attempts to exit the 'easy money' policy mode * An evaluation of new crypto-currency Bitcoin Paper Money Collapse: The Folly of Elastic Money, Second Edition clarifies the problem of paper money clearly and eloquently, and proposes multiple routes to a solution.

Crypto Asset Investing in the Age of Autonomy (Hardcover): J. Ryan Crypto Asset Investing in the Age of Autonomy (Hardcover)
J. Ryan
R723 Discovery Miles 7 230 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Competition, the drive for efficiency, and continuous improvement ultimately push businesses toward automation and later towards autonomy. If a business can operate without human intervention, it will minimize its operational cost. If Uber can remove the expense of a driver with an autonomous vehicle, it will provide its service cheaper than a competitor who can't. If an artificially intelligent trading company can search, find, and take advantage of some arbitrage opportunity, then it can profit where its competitors cannot. A business that can analyze and execute in real-time without needing to wait for a human to act, is a business that will be able to take advantage of brief inefficiencies from other markets or businesses. This trend following a thesis that is based on 100 years of proven economic theory. Short-wave economic cycles, those 5- to 10-year cycles, are driven by credit but the long-wave economic cycles, those 50- to 60-year cycles, are driven by technological revolution. We've had 5 cycles over the past 200 years with the last wave, the Age of Information & Telecommunications. We've seen evidence that a new cycle has begun. Technological revolutions come by way of a cluster of new innovations. About a decade ago, you started to see AI, robotics and IoT (sensors) delivering on automation. That's been powerful, but not transformational. It does not force businesses to fundamentally change how they do business. The last piece of the puzzle was cryptocurrency because it allows us to process and transfer economic value without human intervention. Soon, there will be a global race to build autonomous operations. Businesses and organizations without autonomous operations simply will not be able to compete with those that do because ... autonomy is the ultimate competitive advantage. Crypto is the mechanism that will accrue value from being the infrastructure for the next digital financial revolution. Crypto Asset Investing lays out a case that we've begun a new technological revolution similar to the Internet Age of the 1990's. Artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, robotics and cryptocurrency are converging to deliver on a new age, what I call the Age of Autonomy. Understanding the transformation that's taken place before anyone else can yield enormous investment opportunity. In this book, you'll learn how and why to invest in crypto assets.

Cristiano Bellavitis, Igor Filatotchev, Dzidziso Samuel Kamuriwo, Tom Vanacker
R2,588 Discovery Miles 25 880 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book examines the proliferation of new sources of entrepreneurial finance and how these sources have the potential to make it easier for ventures to raise capital and grow. To date, entrepreneurial finance literature has developed a rich tradition of research on venture capital and angel finance. However, the emergence of 'new' sources of finance - such as crowdfunding - and the limited attention paid to 'traditional' debt financing and financial bootstrapping offer opportunities to explore, from different points of view and theoretical perspectives, the challenges that ventures face. The objective of this book is to explore these new and traditional sources of finance; suggest how these phenomena can be better understood conceptually; and guide new ways of understanding the topic in future, especially for researchers. The introduction outlines the new sources of entrepreneurial finance, and in comparing them with more traditional sources, proposes challenges in our conceptual understanding of these new and traditional sources. The subsequent chapters deal with important topics, including looking at the way different funding sources may interact; factors that impede family firms from getting external funding; how best to succeed with equity crowdfunding by looking at pre-selection processes; considering differences in perceptions towards funding sources arising from whether entrepreneurs are native born or immigrants; factors to consider when funding specialized assets in high uncertain sectors such as biotechnology; and the internationalization of business angel activity. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Venture Capital journal.
