The Thai authorities took a number of measures to maintain stability in the financial system and to restructure insolvent financial institutions, including a substantial strengthening in the legal and regulatory framework.

Download or read book Glosario Del Banco Mundial written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1996 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of the World Bank has been revised and expanded by the Terminology Unit in the Languages Services Division of the World Bank in collaboration with the English, Spanish, and French Translation Sections. The Glossary is intended to assist the Bank's translators and interpreters, other Bank staff using French and Spanish in their work, and free-lance translator's and interpreters employed by the Bank. For this reason, the Glossary contains not only financial and economic terminology and terms relating to the Bank's procedures and practices, but also terms that frequently occur in Bank documents, and others for which the Bank has a preferred equivalent. Although many of these terms, relating to such fields as agriculture, education, energy, housing, law, technology, and transportation, could be found in other sources, they have been assembled here for ease of reference. A list of acronyms occurring frequently in Bank texts (the terms to which they refer being found in the Glossary) and a list of international, regional, and national organizations will be found at the end of the Glossary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2011 the World Bank—with funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation—launched the Global Findex database, the world's most comprehensive data set on how adults save, borrow, make payments, and manage risk. Drawing on survey data collected in collaboration with Gallup, Inc., the Global Findex database covers more than 140 economies around the world. The initial survey round was followed by a second one in 2014 and by a third in 2017. Compiled using nationally representative surveys of more than 150,000 adults age 15 and above in over 140 economies, The Global Findex Database 2017: Measuring Financial Inclusion and the Fintech Revolution includes updated indicators on access to and use of formal and informal financial services. It has additional data on the use of financial technology (or fintech), including the use of mobile phones and the Internet to conduct financial transactions. The data reveal opportunities to expand access to financial services among people who do not have an account—the unbanked—as well as to promote greater use of digital financial services among those who do have an account. The Global Findex database has become a mainstay of global efforts to promote financial inclusion. In addition to being widely cited by scholars and development practitioners, Global Findex data are used to track progress toward the World Bank goal of Universal Financial Access by 2020 and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The database, the full text of the report, and the underlying country-level data for all figures—along with the questionnaire, the survey methodology, and other relevant materials—are available at www.worldbank.org/globalfindex.

Download or read book Pandemic Exposures written by Fassin Didier and published by Hau. This book was released on 2021-11 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illuminating, indispensable analysis of a watershed moment and its possible aftermath. For people and governments around the world, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic seemed to place the preservation of human life at odds with the pursuit of economic and social life. Yet this naive alternative belies the complexity of the entanglements the crisis has created and revealed not just between health and wealth but also around morality, knowledge, governance, culture, and everyday subsistence. Didier Fassin and Marion Fourcade have assembled an eminent team of scholars from across the social sciences to reflect on the myriad ways SARS-CoV-2 has entered, reshaped, or exacerbated existing trends and structures in every part of the globe. The contributors show how the disruptions caused by the pandemic have both hastened the rise of new social divisions and hardened old inequalities and dilemmas. An indispensable volume, Pandemic Exposures provides an illuminating analysis of this watershed moment and its possible aftermath.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This analysis of the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation (HRtWS) uncovers why some groups around the world are still excluded from these rights. Léo Heller, former United Nations Special Rapporteur on the human rights to water and sanitation, draws on his own research in nine countries and reviews the theoretical, legal, and political issues involved. The first part presents the origins of the HRtWS, their legal and normative meanings and the debates surrounding them. Part II discusses the drivers, mainly external to the water and sanitation sector, that shape public policies and explain why individuals and groups are included in or excluded from access to services. In Part III, public policies guided by the realization of HRtWS are addressed. Part IV highlights populations and spheres of living that have been particularly neglected in efforts to promote access to services.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Beta to Alpha: Reclaim Your Masculinity and Become the Confident Leader of the Pack You've Always Wanted to Be. How many romantic dates, job promotions, or hidden dreams have you missed and wasted the opportunity to act on because you were afraid of failing? How many times have you watched someone achieve what you've always wanted and felt that terrible pang of jealousy and self-pity? No one is born confident, assertive, and fearless. Our levels of self-esteem are constantly changing throughout our lives. Numerous factors decide which way the scale will tip--upbringing, physical appearance, and previous experiences, to name a few. But when it comes to confidence and success, the most important, decisive factor is YOU. No one is born confident. But anyone can become confident. The term "Alpha male" has been misused so many times, people now connect it with the image of arrogant, testosterone-fueled bodybuilders. But the real Alpha men are, in reality, nothing like that. They are assertive but kind. Confident, but aware of their flaws. They project masculinity with their actions and words, not muscles. They know how to stand up for themselves without being aggressive. But most importantly, they go straight for what they want. Yes, they sometimes fail, but they stand right up, brush off, and face the next challenge with the same vigor and determination. They were not born like that. They discovered how to become like that. In The Modern Alpha Male, you'll too discover everything they already know, including: How to adopt the traits of real Alpha men and face any situation with confidence and strength Why being "the nice guy" has brought you more damage than good and hindered your confidence The power of assertiveness, and how embracing it can drastically change your romantic and professional life How to use the Law of Attraction to get what you want every time, with only the power of your mind How to reclaim your masculinity, and dominate every other man in the room with nothing but your presence Mistakes you've been unconsciously making that have been undermining your confidence How to build leadership skills and never feel like a submissive Beta again And much more. Being the Alpha male has nothing to do with physical appearance. You don't need huge biceps to get respect in a room or get the girl. Alphas succeed because they know how to succeed. They use their heads, not muscles, to claim what they want. Being an Alpha is a state of mind, and nothing is stopping you to become one yourself.
