Описание: All Finance Professionals Need to Understand Risk Companies must take risks to survive and prosper, but deciding which risks are acceptable, which are not, and what action to take is the tricky part. To be successful, all finance professionals need a solid understanding of risk. Risk Management and Financial Institutions, written by one of the most respected authorities on financial risk management, is thorough, textbook–level instruction for all finance professionals, on all aspects of financial risk. Fully revised and updated, this top–selling book clarifies such complex topics as the diff erent types of financial institutions and how they are regulated, valuation and scenario analysis, credit risk, margin and collateral, volatility, and much more. You?ll find new coverage of timely subjects, such as central clearing, scenario analysis, enterprise risk management, and the latest regulatory issues and gain access to a supplementary website with additional software and helpful learning aids.try."

The book describes both the strengths and limitations of the current molecular and atomistic modelling toolkit so that the professional interested in using these techniques can determine whether or not a given tool is appropriate for simulating the corrosion phenomenon at hand. The book also can serve as a reference for researchers seeking to build new research programs that will extend the current molecular modelling toolkit into exciting new directions. Molecular Modeling of Corrosion Processes features: Recent examples of applications of molecular modeling to corrosion phenomena throughout the text An introduction to mechanisms and models in corrosion science and engineering Methods such as kinetic Monte Carlo simulation, thermodynamic analysis, simulation of adsorption phenomena, statistical mechanics, and conventional transition state theory Presents current challenges and likely developments in this field for the future Various recent examples of applications of molecular modeling to corrosion phenomena are provided throughout the text. Some of these applications include the molecular dynamics of interfaces, dissolution mechanisms and dealloying, interrogating surface chemistry, properties of passive films, localized corrosion, the metal/metal oxide interface, hydrogen embrittlement, stress corrosion cracking, the modeling of corrosion inhibitors, and computational materials discovery.

Описание: Financial services are important for women who are starting and growing a business, but in Pakistan microfinance providers (MFPs) are not reaching Pakistan's businesswomen. Only 59 percent of microfinance clients are women, yet the majority of these loans are passed on the male members of the household - husbands, fathers, and sons. The practice of passing on loans to male household members is quite widespread; women may be bearing all the transaction costs and risks of accessing loans, but are not the final beneficiaries. Second, a very low proportion of female microfinance clients are entrepreneurs. The report explores why businesswomen in Pakistan may not be using microfinance products to meet their start-up and working capital requirements, in spite of identifying access to finance as a key constraint to their business operations. <br><br>Against this backdrop, access to finance remains the biggest challenge for a woman who wants to start or grow a business. Yet less than a quarter of the entrepreneurs identified through business development service providers were currently borrowing from microfinance lenders. Even among those entrepreneurs that borrow, dissatisfaction is high. Why?<br><br>Women borrower-entrepreneurs are not able to access individual loan products, but instead are consistently relegated to group lending. But group loans are very costly for a woman who is running a business, and the loans are too small to fulfil working capital needs. Businesswomen are rarely given the opportunity to access individual loan products, which are usually offered exclusively to male borrowers, and women are not given opportunities to graduate from group loans to individual loans over time. Lending practices often are discriminatory, requiring husbands' permission, male guarantors, and unmarried women are rarely considered as potential clients.<br><br>Although MFIs understand that women's inclusion is integral to the objectives of microfinance, the practice of passing on loans raises serious issues about consumer protection for women clients, and the best and most effective solutions to these challenges could and should come from the sector itself. Designing better products that reach the needs of emerging women entrepreneurs could prove to be good business, achieving double bottom-line objectives. Investing in financial literacy and education of both men and women borrowers can help curb the demand for pass-through loans and help lower risks associated with deceptive practices.

Описание: Microfinance institutions (MFIs) provide a public good: they provide income-creating financial services to un-bankable people. If MFIs create and deepen markets where none existed before, there may be a case for public support. While subsidies are generally not favourably seen in financial sector development, being difficult to target and possibly distorting the local financial market, there may be situations where the net social benefits of micro-finance may exceed those of not doing anything and of alternative anti-poverty programs.

Under such circumstances longer-term public support may be justifiable. This book is based on a study of forty-five MFIs carried out by ILO, in partnership with the Universities of Geneva and Cambridge. The application of factor analysis and cluster analysis shows that MFIs form clusters in terms of social and performance.

Within each cluster there is one institution that is most efficient on both scores. Public support should ensure that the relative efficiency of MFIs is enhanced, it should not prod MFIs to modify their mission and position between poverty outreach and profitability.

Описание:

Microfinance is regarded as a lynchpin in private sector solutions to a host of complex social challenges, from child labor, education, and women's rights, through to sustainable local economic development. The principle of self-help through capital accumulation in the US inner city looks similar to that of a Peruvian slum, and as practice has grown, so has the research. Conversations and Empirical Evidence in Microfinance is a curated conversation from a comprehensive review of the published literature, and is supported by theory and evidence from a wide range of disciplines such as philosophy, finance, public policy, and entrepreneurship.
