For many decades, the global business events industry operated
under the illusion that business event legacies are best measured
in terms of coffee cups and hotel rooms. Business Event Legacies:
Global industry case studies demonstrates that in fact the tourism
contribution made by business events is just the tip of a very big
legacy iceberg. The substantial legacies that business events make
to academic disciplines, industry and community go 'beyond tourism'
and are much more significant. Business Event Legacies: Global
industry case studies provides a cutting edge understanding of the
legacy in the field of business events, crucial to the future of
the industry. Through eight case studies this book will explore how
business events are a collision space for ideas, brokering new
innovations, generating trade and investment, supporting local
communities, academics, industry, and government agendas, and
driving knowledge economies. The text begins by explaining the
paradigm shift in the understanding of business event legacies, and
moves on to introduce a revolutionary six-step plan to analyse
legacy success. The proceeding case studies then illustrate how the
six-step analysis can be put into practice. Business Event
Legacies: Global industry case studies provides: * A comprehensive
range of documented business event legacies available * A global
range of case studies representing key business events destinations
including London, Sydney, Uruguay, Copenhagen, Geneva, Kuching:
Malaysia, and Jonkoping: Sweden. * Methodologies for evaluating the
legacies and impacts of business events for communities,
industries, and government. * Information/understandings crucial
for educating future business event professionals * Suggestions for
advances in business events education and a future research agenda.
Based on robust research framed by the authors' deep understanding
of business events, Business Event Legacies: Global industry case
studies is a must have text for undergraduate and postgraduate
students engaged in the business events sector, academic
researchers and practitioners, including executive and marketing
staff of convention bureaux and convention centres, as well as
professional conference organisers and destination managers.

In the past decade service firms have committed significant
resources to operational aspects of collaborative business
arrangements such as strategic alliances. Yet, there is little
research on consumer responses to service failures in settings that
involve multiple organizations in the service provision. The
current investigation addresses this critical issue in the
strategic airline alliance context. Analyzing in-depth interviews
with business travelers in Hong Kong, and results of experiments
with students in the United States and frequent business travelers
from the Asia-Pacific region, it is suggested that consumer
responses differ significantly, depending on which alliance entity
is evaluated (home carrier, partner airline, alliance).
Identification of consumers with a particular airline, the mood
they are in prior the service encounter, and which alliance airline
caused the service failure emerged as important factors influencing
consumer responses. These findings provide important insights on
the differential impacts of service failures in multiple service
provider settings, and should be especially useful for airline,
marketing, and alliance executives.

Kreditrisikomanagement und Kreditrisikotransfer-Wertung, 29 Quellen
im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Nach Jahren
der Dominanz des Marktrisikos in der finanzwissenschaftlichen
Diskussion ruckt nun zunehmend die Messung und Steuerung des
Kreditrisikos in den Fokus der Betrachtungen. Dieser Wandel im
Risikomanagement wurde insbesondere im Hinblick auf die weltweit zu
beobachtende Zunahme der Unternehmensinsolvenzen notwendig. Der
Prasident des Bundesaufsichtsamtes fur das Kreditwesen, Wolfgang
Artopoeus, ist der Meinung, dass bis zum heutigen Tag uberhohte
Kreditrisiken die weitaus haufigste Ursache existenzbedrohlicher
Schwierigkeiten von Banken und Ausloser von Krisen ganzer
Banksysteme sind. Daruber hinaus sind Bankkrisen neben Ausfallen
bei Grosskrediten vor allem auf ein unzureichendes Management der
Klumpenrisiken im Kreditportfolio zuruckzufuhren. Zu diesem Zweck
haben einige international tatige Grossbanken in den letzten Jahren
stochastische Portfoliomodelle des Kreditrisikos entwickelt, die -
analog zu den bereits etablierten internen Modellen zur Messung von
Marktpreisrisiken - der Steuerung von Kreditportfolios dienen. Das
Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist eine kritische Analyse von
Kreditportfoliomodellen zur Eignung des Managements von
Kreditrisiken. Einleitend bedarf es einer Erorterung der Grundlagen
zur Kreditportfoliosteuerung. Dabei handelt es sich vor allem um
die Abgrenzung der beiden Termini erwarteter Verlust" und
unerwarteter Verlust" sowie um deren Quantifizierung. Grundlage des
Hauptteils bildet die strukturelle Einordnung der
Kreditportfoliomodelle. Darauf aufbauend folgt die
Veranschaulichung der fundamentalen Funktionsweisen von zwei
wichtigen Modellen, namlich CreditMetricsTM und CreditRisk+TM,
welche die Basis fur einen Vergleich aus Si
