Download or read book Trends in Emerging Markets Finance Institutions and Money written by Duc Khuong Nguyen and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-12-02 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the waves of financial liberalization in the 1980s, emerging market economies have been accessible to foreign investors. Altogether, they contributed up to 43.8% of the global GDP in 2018, and many of them, such as China, India, Bangladesh, Philippines, Myanmar and Vietnam from 2010 to 2019, are among the fastest-growing economies in the world. Given the high economic growth, the assets issued by companies in emerging markets are viewed as a new set of investment opportunities for global investors and fund managers who seek to improve the risk-adjusted performance of their portfolios. In addition to their risky profile due to the lack of transparency as well as stable and matured institutions, their recent development path faces a number of challenges arising not only from the slow pace of economic reforms but also from their increased integration with the world. Geopolitical risks, the US–China trade wars, and rising policy uncertainty around the world are expected to reduce their growth potential and performance. This Special Issue dedicates special attention to the current dynamics of emerging financial markets, as well as their perspectives of development as a key driver for sustainable firms and economies. Accordingly, the focus is particularly placed on market integration and interdependence, valuations and risk management practices, and the financing means for inclusive growth.
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Economic and Institutional Transparency written by Jens Forssbaeck and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the term 'transparency' has emerged as one of the most popular and keenly-touted concepts around. In the economic-political debate, the principle of transparency is often advocated as a prerequisite for accountability, legitimacy, policy efficiency, and good governance, as well as a universal remedy against corruption, corporate and political scandals, financial crises, and a host of other problems. But transparency is more than a mere catch-phrase. Increased transparency is a bearing ideal behind regulatory reform in many areas, including financial reporting and banking regulation. Individual governments as well as multilateral bodies have launched broad-based initiatives to enhance transparency in both economic and other policy domains. Parallel to these developments, the concept of transparency has seeped its way into academic research in a wide range of social science disciplines, including the economic sciences. This increased importance of transparency in economics and business studies has called for a reference work that surveys existing research on transparency and explores its meaning and significance in different areas. The Oxford Handbook of Economic and Institutional Transparency is such a reference. Comprised of authoritative yet accessible contributions by leading scholars, this Handbook addresses questions such as: What is transparency? What is the rationale for transparency? What are the determinants and the effects of transparency? And is transparency always beneficial, or can it also be detrimental (if so, when)? The chapters are presented in three sections that correspond to three broad themes. The first section addresses transparency in different areas of economic policy. The second section covers institutional transparency and explores the role of transparency in market integration and regulation. Finally, the third section focuses on corporate transparency. Taken together, this volume offers an up-to-date account of existing work on and approaches to transparency in economic research, discusses open questions, and provides guidance for future research, all from a blend of disciplinary perspectives.

Book excerpt: In response to unparalleled challenges and opportunities, the scope of management is undergoing a profound transformation. Organisations must adapt and innovate in order to flourish in an era characterised by rapid technological advancements, climate change, shifting demographics, and evolving social norms. The three pillars of modern management— sustainability, diversity, and inclusivity—reflect a comprehensive approach that prioritises the well-being of people and the planet over short-term profits and reflects a commitment to social responsibility. In the current era of management, sustainability has emerged as a critical issue. Organisations must incorporate ethical considerations into their decision-making processes, reduce their carbon footprints, and implement eco-conscious practices as the effects of climate change become more severe. According to Paul Polman, the former CEO of Unilever, “Sustainability is not a charity; it is a business case.”
