Book excerpt: The Financial Crisis Inquiry Report, published by the U.S. Government and the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission in early 2011, is the official government report on the United States financial collapse and the review of major financial institutions that bankrupted and failed, or would have without help from the government. The commission and the report were implemented after Congress passed an act in 2009 to review and prevent fraudulent activity. The report details, among other things, the periods before, during, and after the crisis, what led up to it, and analyses of subprime mortgage lending, credit expansion and banking policies, the collapse of companies like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the federal bailouts of Lehman and AIG. It also discusses the aftermath of the fallout and our current state. This report should be of interest to anyone concerned about the financial situation in the U.S. and around the world.THE FINANCIAL CRISIS INQUIRY COMMISSION is an independent, bi-partisan, government-appointed panel of 10 people that was created to "examine the causes, domestic and global, of the current financial and economic crisis in the United States." It was established as part of the Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009. The commission consisted of private citizens with expertise in economics and finance, banking, housing, market regulation, and consumer protection. They examined and reported on "the collapse of major financial institutions that failed or would have failed if not for exceptional assistance from the government."News Dissector DANNY SCHECHTER is a journalist, blogger and filmmaker.

Download or read book South Korea s Industrial Development Since the Early 1960s written by Sang-Woo Nam and published by Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research. This book was released on 2020-02-12 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper examines the remarkable growth of the South Korean economy from the early 1960s to the early 2000s. This paper provides an overview of South Korea’s industrial development process, with a particular emphasis on the heavy and chemical industries’ drive in the 1970s and the impact of educational expansion and investment on technological capabilities. The paper shows how this economic growth was primarily due to an export- oriented industrialization strategy and consistent upgrades to industrial infrastructure and systems to remain competitive in the global market. One of the most important policies pursued by the government was the development of the country's human potential. The paper argues that without this investment, it would have been impossible for South Korea to emerge as one of the most innovative economies in the world. These achievements are attributable to the vision of the political leadership, a supportive government, the hard work of entrepreneurs and others who contributed their valuable human resources. It also examines the 1997 foreign exchange crisis, its causes, and impact on South Korea, as well as the lessons learned, and new policies enacted in its aftermath. The rapid build-up of industrial capabilities was the result of a substantial reduction in investment risks with comprehensive government support for financing, infrastructure, technology and manpower development. However, this also made South Korea's large multi-national industrial companies (chaebols) reckless in fiscal policies. Furthermore, a concentration of economic power and chaebol's putting family interests first — remains a cause of serious socio-political tension in South Korea. The paper concludes that South Korea’s industrial development since the early 1960s include: strong political leadership with vision and a strong commitment to economic development; industrial policy with a focus on promoting heavy and chemical industries; state-chaebol development partnership; and huge investment in human capital and technological capabilities.

Download or read book Political Power and Corporate Control written by Peter A. Gourevitch and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-06-20 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does corporate governance--front page news with the collapse of Enron, WorldCom, and Parmalat--vary so dramatically around the world? This book explains how politics shapes corporate governance--how managers, shareholders, and workers jockey for advantage in setting the rules by which companies are run, and for whom they are run. It combines a clear theoretical model on this political interaction, with statistical evidence from thirty-nine countries of Europe, Asia, Africa, and North and South America and detailed narratives of country cases. This book differs sharply from most treatments by explaining differences in minority shareholder protections and ownership concentration among countries in terms of the interaction of economic preferences and political institutions. It explores in particular the crucial role of pension plans and financial intermediaries in shaping political preferences for different rules of corporate governance. The countries examined sort into two distinct groups: diffuse shareholding by external investors who pick a board that monitors the managers, and concentrated blockholding by insiders who monitor managers directly. Examining the political coalitions that form among or across management, owners, and workers, the authors find that certain coalitions encourage policies that promote diffuse shareholding, while other coalitions yield blockholding-oriented policies. Political institutions influence the probability of one coalition defeating another.
