Book excerpt: "The Irwin Guide to Investing in Emerging Markets is a first-of-its-kind guide to the specific opportunities and risks of investing in the capital and financial markets of the countries and regions classified as "emerging markets." Inside, author Marjorie T. Stanley outlines alternatives for various direct and indirect portfolio investments, including fixed income investments, internationally traded shares, mutual funds (emerging market funds), and closed end funds - one of the few practical ways to invest in some emerging markets." "Emerging markets are growing much faster than developed markets and the current surge in investing opportunities reflects this rapid growth. But just as many risks and restrictions accompany these opportunities, so it's more important than ever to understand the markets and their limitations. The Irwin Guide to Investing in Emerging Markets gives you a complete framework for determining the most appropriate emerging market countries for your individual investment needs and risk tolerance."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Stocks for the Long Run written by Jeremy J. Siegel and published by Irwin Professional Publishing. This book was released on 1994 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It's been called the world's greatest casino - but the stock market is far more than a game of chance. Despite the short-term instability of the market, stocks have proven to be better investments than bonds over the long run. Financial expert Jeremy Siegel gives shrewd and practical advice on building wealth through buying stocks in this thorough analysis of the market and the factors that affect it. If you're about to invest, this is the guide you need to understand the stock market as an attractive option." "Base your investment choices on a clear understanding of why, and not just how, the market reacts to economic forces, Siegel urges. His unique and substantive guide gives investors essential background on the stock market by explaining the historical returns on stocks and bonds over the past two centuries - and discusses the risk and return profile on financial assets that makes stocks safer and more productive long-term investments." "Along with practical tips and guidelines, this complete guide includes a detailed description of market performances since 1802 - including nearly 100 original charts and graphs - providing a unique perspective on returns and market fluctuations; an examination of the economic, political, and fiscal changes that affect the stock market, such as deficits, taxes, inflation - even war; and an analysis of long-term stock opportunities in foreign markets - a timely topic for today's investors." "You'll discover how to calculate the effects of calendar anomalies, inflation, taxes, and many other factors on market volatility - and how to structure your portfolio accordingly. (Insights from the stock crashes of October 1929 and 1987 help investors understand why stock risks have changed over time.) Siegel's thorough analysis not only covers stock returns - including the "nifty fifty," market capitalization, and after-tax returns - but explains why the market moves as it does and offers an idea of what to expect from the future."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: Within a decade, private capital surpassed aid as the primary capital source for developing countries. This book explores how the increase of private funds, in particular portfolio capital, effects democratization in developing countries. A probe into institutional investors' coordination, asset concentration, political preferences, and activism, provides a framework for understanding the politics of international financial constraints. Highlighting the dilemma presented by international finance's simultaneous emphasis on austerity and stability, the question of whether this public-to-private shift might facilitate an anti-democratic strain is examined.

Download or read book Investment Prospects in a Sample of Arab Stock Exchanges written by Kamal Naser and published by Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research. This book was released on 1998-11-18 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last few years, policy makers in most Arab countries have recognized the role of the private sector in shaping their economies. Furthermore, as long-term economic growth is dependent on the provision of funds to finance domestic capital formation, these countries are undergoing a process of economic reform to diversify their economies and to privatize public assets. As effective privatization programs should be met by well prepared and fully-equipped stock markets, governments in the Arab countries are paying attention to domestic capital markets as a way of enhancing the supply of money. This study assesses the changes in the economic conditions in Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Morocco, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia and the United Arab Emirates and the performance of their stock markets over the past eight years.
Download or read book Emerging market Multinational Enterprises in East Central Europe written by Ágnes Szunomár and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-23 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of multinational enterprises (MNEs) from emerging markets is topical, important and poses a number of questions and challenges that require considerable attention in the future from academia as well as business management. The recent takeovers of high-profile companies in developed or developing countries by non-European emerging-market MNEs (EMNEs) – such as Lenovo, Wanhua (China), Hindalco (India), CVRD (Brazil), Cemex (Mexico), Lukoil (Russia), etc. – as well as the greenfield or brownfield investments of emerging companies (such as Huawei, ZTE, Tata, Pepco, etc.) show a new trend where new kind of firms become major players globally. EMNEs have become important players in several regions around the globe, ranging from the least developed countries of Africa through the developing markets in Latin America and Asia to the developed countries of the United States or the European Union, including East Central European (ECE) countries. EMNEs presence on the global level has resulted in numerous studies in the international literature but those research results barely cover EMNEs’ activities in the ECE region (in the East Central European EU member countries, including the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia). The existing books typically focus on the investment activity of a single country or region (such as China or East Asia) but a comprehensive analysis is still missing in this regard. The novelty of this edited volume is that it aims at exploring EMNEs location determinants, strategies, activities and challenges in East Central Europe by discussing its anomalies to the traditional theories as well as to other types of MNEs in the ECE region. The authors focus on EMNEs not only from China but from other important emerging countries, too, such as Russia, India, South Korea, Taiwan, Turkey, Brazil or South Africa.
