This book was released on 1988-03-01 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the policy implications of structural changes in financial markets. Domestic financial markets have become less segmented, and the major financial centers more integrated. At the same time, the structural changes in financial markets have improved efficiency by lowering intermediation costs, increasing the ability to hedge financial risks associated with currency, interest rate, and price volatility and opening up access to new sources of savings. The widespread application of computer and telecommunications technology to financial markets has permitted markets to process a significantly larger volume of transactions.
Download or read book State Public Enterprise and Economic Development written by Kamesh Kumar and published by Northern Book Centre. This book was released on 1994 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of public enterprises is not new. They have been assigned the role of harbinger of socialism in India in accordance with the Industrial Policy Resolution of 1956. They are treated as the catalysts of economic development and social upliftment of the people. For pretty a long time, public enterprises have been in dock and dottage on the ground that they have not been able to deliver goods as per our expectations. With a huge amount of investment in the central sector and the states' sector taken together, these enterprises have failed to generate a dependable surplus. Public sector is an amalgam of Central and State enterprises. In this book we have established that the state's enterprises' commitments are no less than central enterprises to fulfil the objectives and expectations with which, they were allotted the commanding height in our economy. A macro-level study of all types of State-level public undertakings has been done to judge the efficiency and effectiveness of these enterprises. This book is unique in the sense that it covers the syllabus of M.A., B.A. (Hons.) and B.A. (Pass) courses of all the universities of Bihar and special paper as `Public Enterprises' in other universities of India. In view of its multi-dimensional approach, the book would be of immense importance to general readers, students, academicians and researchers. Review ``The book deals with the economics of public enterprises with special reference to Bihar. The book is of special importance, particularly in the present context of redefining the role of public sector''. I Satya Sundaram, Southern Economist

Download or read book Corporate Governance Enforcement and Financial Development written by Chen Ding and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ÔDing ChenÕs detailed institutional analysis of the development of the Chinese stock market brings the question of enforcement to centre stage. In doing so, she not only introduces readers to the particularities of the Chinese system; she also sheds new light on conventional debates about the law and economics of corporate governance.Õ Ð Andrew Johnston, University of Sheffield, UK ÔIn this book Dr Ding Chen has made an important theoretical contribution to our understanding of corporate governance in transitional economies and of corporate governance in China especially. Drawing upon the insights of New Institutional Economics theory she examines the interplay between formal and informal enforcement mechanisms relating to corporate governance in China. To support this argument the book breaks new ground by providing a comprehensive examination of enforcement actions in ChinaÕs stock market; her findings are at variance from conclusions found in other research, such as in the law and finance literature. Rather than simply imitating the dominant Anglo-American model of corporate governance, she argues that local conditions will greatly affect the choice of the most appropriate governance models. This has been especially so in China.Õ Ð Roman Tomasic, University of South Australia and Durham Law School, UK This important new book attempts to establish a fresh conceptual framework for the study of corporate governance by employing the new institutional economics of contract enforcement. This framework helps to clarify two critical issues including the role of law in financial development and whether there is an optimal corporate governance model that should be followed by countries attempting to develop their own stock markets. Applying this novel framework, the author conducts a comprehensive study on Chinese corporate governance and discovers that the Chinese stock market has rapidly expanded even in the absence of any effective institutions. She provides a credible explanation to this ÔChina puzzleÕ by arguing that the growth of the stock market is mainly driven by state guarantees, institutional rent seeking by state-owned companies, financial repression and investorsÕ speculation. Indeed, there is probably nowhere better to look than ChinaÕs stock market to assess the limits of the gradualist approach to financial development. As the book explains, the potential efficiency gains that could be created by a healthy, well-functioning stock market have been completely outweighed by the consideration of maintaining the existing political system. This book will appeal to scholars and students of economics and law with an interest in corporate governance, Chinese economic development and new institutional economics.

This book was released on 1995 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport, including minor league baseball, is an object of public policy. Communities can exploit it to promote economic and social well-being, but not without risk. Drawing on case studies of fifteen locales including Fresno, Birmingham, Durham, Buffalo, Indianapolis, and Colorado Springs, Arthur Johnson systematically analyzes the political process by which communities decide to invest in stadiums for minor league baseball teams. He explores such factors as the presence or absence of a development strategy as a guide in decision making, and the value to a community of a minor league team and its stadium. Johnson also describes the dynamics of minor league baseball franchise relocation, the importance of intergovernmental relations to stadium financing, and the organization and business of minor league baseball, including its formal relationship with major league baseball.
