Book Synopsis Eco-design of Buildings and Infrastructure by : Bruno Peuportier
Download or read book Eco-design of Buildings and Infrastructure written by Bruno Peuportier and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-11-03 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chair on Ecodesign for buildings and infrastructures was created by ParisTech in partnership with VINCI with the aim of developing evaluation and simulation tools that integrate all ecodesign aspects (e.g. greenhouse gas emissions, impact on biodiversity, depletion of resources, etc.) and provide genuine decision-aid instruments, based on a scientific approach, to all those involved in the urban environment (i.e. designers, builders and users). The present book takes stock of five years of research under the Chair. It starts by presenting some methodological bases of ecodesign, life cycle assessments, impact studies, and methods for planning and transport. Several specific subjects are then covered, i.e. public transport, parking, road traffic, the environmental profile of building materials, building retrofits, energy management, and biodiversity. The last part of the book sets out how the knowledge and tools developed under the Chair were applied to a case study: Cité Descartes in Marne la Vallée (Ile de France). This work is aimed at urban planners, local authorities, contracting clients, architects, engineering firms, contractors, building managers, research lecturers, and anyone interested in the environmental quality of the places we live in.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication follows up on the 1993 review of the Banks's experience in telecommunications. it assesses how their assistance from has influenced the development of information infrastructure in developing countries. It finds that the recommendations from 1993 have generally been heeded with the adoption of a new private sector led agenda and increasing the share of IFC in total Bank Group funding commitments. However the ability to play a global policy leadership role has been hampered by a benign neglect of the sector at both the strategic and country management level.
Book Synopsis Blockchain-based New Financial Infrastructures by : Qian YAO
Download or read book Blockchain-based New Financial Infrastructures written by Qian YAO and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-08 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on development of blockchain-based new-generation financial infrastructures, in which a systematic, complete theoretical framework is proposed to explore blockchain-based securities trading platform, central securities depository (CSD), securities settlement system (SSS), central counterparty (CCP), payment system (PS) and trade repository (TR). The blockchain-based new FMI has attracted much attention in the securities industry. At present, the cross-border depository receipt (DR) business faces a dilemma between efficiency and security. In this book, the author proposes a blockchain-based new DR solution, manifesting the potential for using blockchain technology in the FMI field. In addition, using Hashed Timelock Contract (HTLC) as the underlying technology in the DR scenario, specific process and operations are proposed for delivery versus payment (DvP), delivery versus delivery (DvD) or payment versus payment (PvP) and other exchange-of-value methods. This book further studies how to carry out opening positions, end-of-day settlement of margin, forced liquidation and settlement at maturity, for exchange-traded derivatives, such as futures and options, under the blockchain-based technological framework. Blockchain technology not only naturally fits into the decentralized or non-centralized characteristic of the OTC market but also can effectively address the pain points and difficulties of the OTC market. This book provides an in-depth analysis of existing specific issues in China’s bond market, regional equity markets and asset management market, among other OTC markets, and proposes relevant blockchain-based solutions. Blockchain technology does not change the public policy objectives for FMI. The blockchain-based new FMIs are still subject to compliance, safety and efficiency requirements. This book provides a comprehensive assessment of the applicability of the Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures (PFMI) to them, in particular, analyzes their legal basis, off-chain governance and system security.

Book Synopsis Infrastructures financées par des ressources naturelles by : Håvard Halland
Download or read book Infrastructures financées par des ressources naturelles written by Håvard Halland and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2015-05-06 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis quelques dizaines d’années, les pays en développement riches en ressources naturelles utilisent ces dernières en tant que garanties pour obtenir accès à des sources de financement pour leurs investissements et contourner les obstacles qu’ils rencontrent lorsqu’ils s’efforcent d’obtenir des prêts traditionnels auprès des banques ou des capitaux sur les marchés financiers. Différents modèles de financement sont issus de ces efforts, parmi lesquels le modèle des infrastructures financées par des ressources naturelles (IFR) qui est une variante des modèles de prêts garantis par le pétrole lancés en Afrique par plusieurs banques occidentales. Dans le cadre d’une transaction basée sur le modèle des infrastructures financées par des ressources naturelles (IFR), un prêt contracté pour financer la construction immédiate d’une infrastructure est garanti par la valeur actuelle nette de flux de revenus qui seront générés à l’avenir par l’extraction d’hydrocarbures ou de minerais. Le modèle a été employé dans plusieurs pays africains pour des contrats d’une valeur totale de l’ordre de 30 milliards de dollars, selon des informations publiques. Ce rapport, qui se compose d’une étude préparée par Hunton & Williams LLP, spécialiste du financement de projets à l’échelle mondiale, et de commentaires formulés par six économistes et décideurs de réputation internationale présente une analyse des marchés d’infrastructures financées par des ressources naturelles (IFR) sous l’angle du financement de projets. Il a pour objet de provoquer une réflexion de fond et de servir de base à de nouveaux travaux de recherche sur le rôle du modèle IFR, les risques qu’il pose et les perspectives qu’il offre, sans pour autant prétendre présenter des opinons des contrats IFR qui auraient l’aval de la Banque mondiale. Il est le fruit d’un effort motivé par la conviction que, si les pays doivent continuer de solliciter des transactions IFR ou de recevoir des propositions spontanées, il incombe aux représentants de l’État de pouvoir faire la différence entre de bonnes et de mauvaises opérations, d’évaluer les compromis qui sont inévitables, et d’agir en conséquence. Ce rapport vise à apporter certains éclairages qui permettront de déterminer comment assujettir, dans le cadre de la politique publique, les transactions IFR au même degré d’examen que tout autre instrument que les autorités de pays à faible revenu ou à revenu intermédiaire (tranche inférieure) pourraient souhaiter utiliser pour mobiliser des financements à l’appui du développement.

Book Synopsis DeFi and the Future of Finance by : Campbell R. Harvey
Download or read book DeFi and the Future of Finance written by Campbell R. Harvey and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-08-19 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Global Financial Crisis in 2008, our financial infrastructure failed. Governments bailed out the very institutions that let the economy down. This episode spurred a serious rethink of our financial system. Does it make any sense that it takes two days to settle a stock transaction? Why do retailers, operating on razor thin margins, have to pay 3% for every customer credit card swipe? Why does it take two days to transfer money from a bank account to a brokerage—or any other company? Why are savings rates miniscule or negative? Why is it so difficult for entrepreneurs to get financing at traditional banks? In DeFi and the Future of Finance, Campbell R. Harvey, Ashwin Ramachandran and Joey Santoro, introduce the new world of Decentralized Finance. The book argues that the current financial landscape is ripe for disruption and we are seeing, in real time, the reinvention of finance. The authors provide the reader with a clear assessment of the problems with the current financial system and how DeFi solves many of these problems. The essence of DeFi is that we interact with peers—there is no brick and mortar and all of the associated costs. Savings and lending are reinvented. Trading takes place with algorithms far removed from traditional brokerages. The book conducts a deep dive on some of the most innovative protocols such as Uniswap and Compound. Many of the companies featured in the book you might not have heard of—however, you will in the future. As with any new technology, there are a myriad of risks and the authors carefully catalogue these risks and assess which ones can be successfully mitigated. Ideally suited for people working in any part of the finance industry as well as financial policy makers, DeFi and the Future of Finance gives readers a vision of the future. The world of finance will fundamentally be changed over the coming decade. The book enables you to become part of the disruption – not the target of the disruption.
