Download or read book New Finance for America s Cities written by Tessa Hebb and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past investment in our cities' built environment was primarily carried out by government, with public good as the primary motivation. But governments are increasingly struggling to find the available capital required for public financing of our cities' investment needs. This article suggests that there are new sources of finance available for investment in America's cities. Retirement savings are being used to invest in these cities' future growth. While such investment generates positive ancillary benefits for our cities, it is not the primary purpose of this capital. The motivation for large institutional investors including pension funds and sovereign-wealth funds, is the risk-adjusted rate of return. This private profit-driven motivation leads to different investment decision-making than we found in the past when public good was the primary driver.
Download or read book City of Capital written by Bruce G. Carruthers and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1999-12-19 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "While many have examined how economic interests motivate political action, Bruce Carruthers explores the reverse relationship by focusing on how political interests shape a market. He sets his inquiry within the context of late Stuart England, when an active stock market emerged and when Whig and Tory parties vied for control of a newly empowered Parliament. Probing such connections between politics and markets at both institutional and individual levels, Carruthers ultimately argues that competitive markets are not inherently apolitical spheres guided by economic interest but rather ongoing creations of social actors pursuing multiple goals." -- BACK COVER.

Download or read book The New Reality of Municipal Finance written by Robert W. Burchell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 1984 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Reality of Municipal Finance examines the growth and decline of fiscal dependency in the large cities of the United States. Intergovernmental cities became dependent upon a variety of revenues, primarily from federal and state governments, to support an array of local public services that were basic to the needs of their citizens. This study based upon two years of work explores the socioeconomic characteristics of these cities and details the changes they have undergone given the drastic shifts in national domestic spending. The authors reveal the health level of each city; how each will be able to deal with the New Federalism; and how future public services and capital facility infrastructure will be provided in the intergovernmental city.
