Download or read book Qatar written by Mehran Kamrava and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-23 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Persian Gulf state of Qatar has fewer than 2 million inhabitants, virtually no potable water, and has been an independent nation only since 1971. Yet its enormous oil and gas wealth has permitted the ruling al Thani family to exert a disproportionately large influence on regional and even international politics. Qatar is, as Mehran Kamrava explains in this knowledgeable and incisive account of the emirate, a "tiny giant": although severely lacking in most measures of state power, it is highly influential in diplomatic, cultural, and economic spheres. Kamrava presents Qatar as an experimental country, building a new society while exerting what he calls "subtle power." It is both the headquarters of the global media network Al Jazeera and the site of the U.S. Central Command’s Forward Headquarters and the Combined Air Operations Center. Qatar has been a major player during the European financial crisis, it has become a showplace for renowned architects, several U.S. universities have established campuses there, and it will host the FIFA World Cup in 2022. Qatar’s effective use of its subtle power, Kamrava argues, challenges how we understand the role of small states in the global system. Given the Gulf state’s outsized influence on regional and international affairs, this book is a critical and timely account of contemporary Qatari politics and society.
Book Synopsis The Future of Financial Regulation by : Iain G MacNeil
Download or read book The Future of Financial Regulation written by Iain G MacNeil and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03-12 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of Financial Regulation is an edited collection of papers presented at a major conference at the University of Glasgow in spring 2009, co-sponsored by the Economic and Social Research Council World Economy and Finance Programme and the the Australian Research Council Governance Research Network. It draws together a variety of different perspectives on the international financial crisis which began in August 2007 and later turned into a more widespread economic crisis following the collapse of Lehman Brothers in the autumn of 2008. Spring 2009 was in many respects the nadir since valuations in financial markets had reached their low point and crisis management rather than regulatory reform was the main focus of attention. The conference and book were deliberately framed as an attempt to re-focus attention from the former to the latter. The first part of the book focuses on the context of the crisis, discussing the general characteristics of financial crises and the specific influences that were at work this time round. The second part focuses more specifically on regulatory techniques and practices implicated in the crisis, noting in particular an over-reliance on the capacity of regulators and financial institutions to manage risk and on the capacity of markets to self-correct. The third part focuses on the role of governance and ethics in the crisis and in particular the need for a common ethical framework to underpin governance practices and to provide greater clarity in the design of accountability mechanisms. The final part focuses on the trajectory of regulatory reform, noting the considerable potential for change as a result of the role of the state in the rescue and recuperation of the financial system and stressing the need for fundamental re-appraisal of business and regulatory models.

Book Synopsis Financial Cycles by : Dimitris N. Chorafas
Download or read book Financial Cycles written by Dimitris N. Chorafas and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-30 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As financial positions expand, the economy becomes more vulnerable to adverse and unexpected developments taking place outside the six to seven year business cycle. Over 50 years ago Nikolai Kondratieff developed the theory of "The Long Waves in Economic Life", which incorporated an extended cycle of innovation and upward thrust, and changed our understanding of business cycles in financial settings. Financial Cycles concentrates on two areas that have thus far been omitted from mainstream economics. The first is the impact of the longer term financial cycle; the second is the beginning of de-globalization as the world enters an era of iron-glad economic blocks. Chorafas argues that to overcome the more narrow limits of the business cycle, we need to go beyond its traditional six to seven year focus and address the longer term. This includes the building-up and running-off of economic risks characterizing the financial cycle, as well as the appreciation of forces underwriting both its growth and its decay. An ever-increasing public debt and the behavior of the banking industry are two principal reasons why the structure of analysis characterizing the previous financial cycle no longer fits present-day realities. A new methodology starts getting in shape, even if it still has to acquire political legitimacy.

Based in Pasadena, California, he was at ground zero when the real estate bomb exploded. From the mind-blowing profits to the collapse of a paper empire, Potter was a firsthand witness to the fallout of the real estate bubble.The Flipis an inside look at the actions and strategies behind the housing bubble and its aftermath.

Book Synopsis Breaking Up the Euro by : D. Chorafas
Download or read book Breaking Up the Euro written by D. Chorafas and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The drama of the common currency is a hot topic. The Euro was planned for the European Union's member states, bringing economically strong nations like Germany and Holland and weaker nations like Greece, Spain and Italy under one set of currency rules. A dozen years of its implementation has shown that the planning was incomplete at best. Add to this the weight of a deepening debt crisis among western nations, which continues unabated, and Europe has a very deep financial hole to climb out of. In this work, Dimitris N. Chorafas provides the reader with evidence to poor political judgment, then delves into preparation for the foreseeable Euro breakup and confronts the redenomination risk associated to it.

Book Synopsis Prophets During Boom and Gloom Downunder by : Sarah Azzi
Download or read book Prophets During Boom and Gloom Downunder written by Sarah Azzi and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Financial analysts are viewed as playing an important intermediary role in gathering and interpreting information and passing it onto the investment community. However, in recent years, it has become more apparent that the analysts come under much internal and external pressure when making their forecasts and recommendations. Jegadeesh et al (2004) have highlighted that this results in US equity analysts being biased towards high momentum growth stocks when making their recommendations which presumedly causes then to add little or no value in their own right. However, they find that their recommendations changes do provide useful incremental investment insights. In this paper, we find that Australian analysts also consistently favour stocks with the similar characteristics and that their recommendations, if anything, have negative value with the exception of those made in relation to low momentum growth stocks. Similarly, we find that one could use the changes in the analysts' recommendations as a useful input into one's investment decisions. When we divided our sample up into the growth market of the last 1990's and the falling market of the early 2000's, we find that evidence to suggest that we might gain true insights into the unbiased views of the analysts by observing their recommendations changes. During the boom years, the analysts were moving their recommendations towards high momentum growth stocks but this changed during the gloom years with the recommendation changes then being tilted towards value stocks with a reduced emphasis on momentum and size. This suggests that although over time the analysts' recommendations reflect the internal and external pressures under which the analysts operate, that they do chase prevailing market conditions in the revisions that they make to these recommendations. Finally, the paper demonstrates a way for obtaining a fitted value for recommendation revisions which might provide a good way of incorporating them into one's investment decisions process.
