Book Assurance   Banque   Gestion de patrimoine   Tome 2a

Download or read book Assurance Banque Gestion de patrimoine Tome 2a written by Eric Dumont and published by La Charte, Professional Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un livre utile pour apprendre la prise de décisions dans un contexte particulier et aléatoire, celui de l’assurance, de la banque et de la gestion de patrimoine, à l'heure où les enjeux financiers de cet univers sont colossaux. En management stratégique, matière complexe en raison de la multiplicité des facteurs à considérer avant de décider, la méthode de cas s’avère particulièrement indiquée. Cet ouvrage offre ce que les chiffres n’offrent pas : un apprentissage de la prise de décision dans un contexte aléatoire, celui de l’assurance, de la banque et de la gestion de patrimoine. Cet univers aux enjeux financiers colossaux est devenu si affairiste que les aptitudes humaines vitales : rigueur intellectuelle, faculté d’analyse et bon jugement, feront la différence. Chaque cas de ce livre illustre de façon réaliste une situation précise tirée du quotidien de ces organisations : des données factuelles et pertinentes, structurées et quantifiables, mais souvent partielles ou incomplètes. Cependant, ces réalités très diverses de terrain pousseront tout étudiant soucieux de réussir à s’y plonger sans retenue pour ainsi apprendre à choisir et décider des actions à mener à partir des seules informations disponibles. Comme dans la « vraie vie » ! Et comme dans la « vraie vie », il n’existera pas de solution unique et encore moins « miracle ». Le plus souvent, un certain nombre de voies possibles, plus ou moins heureuses à emprunter, se dessineront selon les buts recherchés. Le lecteur l’aura compris, les cas de ce manuel ne se satisferont ni d’une approche scolaire théorique ni d’un récit scénarisé vaguement réaliste. Puisque personne ne peut imposer de solution sans tenir compte du contexte humain dans lequel elle doit s’engager, la méthodologie offerte en ces pages prône l’ouverture au dialogue et à la libre discussion. Le tome 2a regroupe les énoncés des problématiques à aborder et résoudre. Chaque cas de ce manuel illustre une situation précise tirée du quotidien, pour laquelle il n'y a pas de solution unique mais bien une méthodologie à adopter. Apprenez à faire la différence avec de la rigueur intellectuelle, une bonne faculté d’analyse et un bon jugement ! Le tome 2a regroupe les énoncés des problématiques à aborder et résoudre. EXTRAIT Consciente que divers facteurs de perte de temps dans le travail de conclusion d’un contrat par les conseillers peuvent être solutionnés, la direction de la branche patrimoniale décide, en tant que responsable de l’innovation, de vous confier la mission d’améliorer les procédures actuelles. Il s’agira pour vous de tenir compte de la législation actuelle dans l’établissement de nouvelles procédures et du coût budgétaire que cela peut engendrer. Le facteur humain est un élément sur lequel vous devez réfléchir à travers d’éventuelles embauches de collaborateurs mais aussi en imaginant une possible digitalisation des processus actuels. À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Après un parcours professionnel de plus de 10 ans dans la banque, Eric Dumont a intégré une célèbre compagnie d’assurance, en charge de développer l’activité patrimoniale de la société auprès d’une clientèle de particuliers et d’institutionnels. Fort de cette expérience, il nous propose aujourd’hui plusieurs cas d’entreprises qui s’appuient sur des problématiques réelles mettant en exergue les bouleversements de leurs différents secteurs d’activité dus à l’introduction d’une digitalisation de nombre de procédures. A travers ces exemples variés, le lecteur y décèlera les méthodes qui permettent de développer et préserver un facteur essentiel : celui de la nécessaire relation humaine qui non seulement doit s’établir, mais surtout se pérenniser, entre le conseiller et son client.

Book Food security and nutrition in the age of climate change

Download or read book Food security and nutrition in the age of climate change written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2018-10-17 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After steadily declining for over a decade, global hunger is on the rise again, while various forms of malnutrition coexist. Climate change is already exacerbating this grim picture, which is why food security and food production will be a major focus of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s 6th Assessment Cycle. Thanks to the participation of 250 experts from all around the world, the International Symposium on Food Security and Nutrition in the Age of Climate Change highlighted the importance of food and agricultural systems in the fight against climate change and presented concrete multi-sector solutions to address this global issue. The event placed special emphasis on the regional realities of West Africa and the Canadian North, as well as to the presence of young people and members of Indigenous and Northern communities directly affected by these issues. The summaries of these four days of plenaries, interactive workshops, and special events have been grouped under seven major themes for this publication: 1) Climate change, food security and nutrition: the issues; (2) The agriculture sectors in the context of climate change; (3) Food systems in the face of climate change; (4) Natural resources: challenges and solutions; (5) Food security and nutrition in a changing North; (6) Summary of solutions; (7) Strengthening and adapting regional and international cooperation.

Download or read book European Contract Law written by Bénédicte Fauvarque-Cosson and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2009-04-27 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Association Henri Capitant des Amis de la Culture Juridique Française and the Société de législation comparée joined the academic network on European Contract Law in 2005 to work on the elaboration of a "common terminology" and on "guiding principles" as well as to propose a revised version of the Principles of European Contract Law (PECL). The results of this work were sent to the European Commission and have already been published in French. The English translation is now being published by sellier.elp. This work could contribute to the wider European project. The part on the guiding principles could be a component of the CFR, in the form of "black letter" model rules or recitals. The part on terminology is, in itself, useful for the elaboration of the final various linguistic versions of the CFR. It finds its place within the materials which will accompany the model rules. Last but by no means least, the revised version of the PECL should be considered by the European institutions as an alternative set of model rules on contract law.

Download or read book Togo written by International Monetary Fund. African Dept. and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2014-07-23 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper highlights that Togo’s Strategy for Boosting Growth and Promoting Employment offers a medium-term development framework for implementing the Government’s General Policy Statement, the Millennium Development Goals, and the Government’s vision for making Togo an emerging economy in 15 to 20 years, as well as making it a country that respects human rights and promotes the rule of law. The return of political stability and peace to the country created a favorable environment for better governance, resumption of international assistance, and significant reduction in exterior public debt. The Government’s medium-term economic policy for 2013–2017 will essentially be used to build and consolidate the foundations for Togo’s future economic emergence. The focus will be on new priorities: boosting growth; employment and inclusion; strengthening governance; and reducing regional disparities and promoting grassroots development. Designing a national land-use plan will territorialize development by creating a more balanced national economic space. The new land-use scheme will be based on dynamic, competitive, regional economies in which the urbanization of regional capitals and secondary towns is sufficiently controlled to allow true development hubs to emerge.

EXTRAIT La crainte des conseils en gestion de patrimoine de se voir concurrencer par les robo-advisors (conseillers en gestion de patrimoine automatisé) s’éloigne peu à peu. C’est ce qui ressort de l’enquête « Les CGPI et l’innovation », réalisée par Aprédia à l’occasion du salon Patrimonia 2018 : 73 % d’entre eux considèrent ainsi qu’en l’état les robots ne sont pas et ne peuvent pas être leurs concurrents. « Les CGPI réaffirment ici que leur mission de conseil reste au cœur de leur activité. Pour eux, la qualité de leur assistance va bien au-delà d’une simple analyse de données », précise l’enquête. Mais l’intérêt pour l’outil robo-advisor se développe puisque 69 % des CGPI interrogés sont prêts à l’utiliser. Pour les autres, il s’agit surtout d’une question de temps. « L’intégration des robo-advisors parmi les outils courants est perçue comme inéluctable », conclut l’enquête.

Book The Principle of Numerus Clausus in European Property Law

Download or read book The Principle of Numerus Clausus in European Property Law written by Bram Akkermans and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to develop a framework that can form a basis for the development of a European property law, this book provides a comparative analysis of property law from the perspective of four European legal systems and European law, focusing on the numerus clausus principle. The book offers theoretical insights on how substantive property law, European law, and, to a certain extent, private international law intersect. The principle of numerus clausus, one of the fundamental principles of property law, is adhered to by most legal systems. In this book, an analysis of the property law systems of France, Germany, the Netherlands, and England is provided. A description is given of the content of available property rights in each of these systems, followed by an examination as to whether these rights form a closed system and whether private parties are given freedom to shape property rights, or even create new types of rights. In the last decades, property law has come under pressure to allow more party autonomy. In other words, property law has become more and more subject to pressure from contract law. Private parties attempt to draft their contracts in such a way that their contractual arrangements are given property effect. Sometimes they also attempt to make use of a property right in a way that was not foreseen by legislature or courts. As a result, rights have come into existence that are intermediary between the law of contract and the law of property. Moreover, the systems of property law are also subject to a growing influence from European legislation. The development of the internal market in the European Union increasingly forces Member States to answer the question whether and, if the answer is affirmative, in what way property rights created in another Member State should be recognized. Substantive property law intersects here. Until now, national legal systems generally resist this influence of European law and use the principle of numerous clausus as a justification. It is to be questioned whether the numerus clauses principle can still act as a guardian against the influence of foreign and European law.

Book Global Corruption Report 2006

Download or read book Global Corruption Report 2006 written by Transparency International and published by Pluto Press. This book was released on 2005-12-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TI has once again shown its ability to combine research and policy analysis not just to shine a light on the deeply embedded problems of corruption ... but to propose progressive solutions. Former World Bank President James Wolfensohn on the Global Corruption ReportIn the health sector, corruption is a matter of life or death. It can take many forms: from medical professionals who sell medicines or services that should be freely available, to high-level government officials who embezzle money from health budgets, to pharmaceutical companies that buy influence over research agendas. The impact of corruption is always felt by the end user -- the sick person who is forced to pay over the odds or who is given unsafe, counterfeit medicines. The 2006 edition of Transparency International’s Global Corruption Report shows the impact that corruption has on health care in rich and poor countries. From high-level bribery in Costa Rica to informal payments in Hungary, case studies from around the world explore the characteristics of the health sector that make it so prone to corruption. In a special section dedicated to corruption in HIV/AIDS, the report warns that the large sums being poured into fighting the world’s deadliest diseases need to be safeguarded against abuse. There is also a detailed analysis of the problems of the pharmaceutical system.The report also offers an annual round-up of worldwide developments and tracks major trends in more than 40 countries.The Global Corruption Report 2006 is the only report of its kind, and is an essential reference source for anyone who wants the latest research on how corruption affects everything from health to education and the oil and gas industries.
