Download or read book Emerging Markets and the Global Economy written by Mohammed El Hedi Arouri and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-12-26 with total page 927 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging Markets and the Global Economy investigates analytical techniques suited to emerging market economies, which are typically prone to policy shocks. Despite the large body of emerging market finance literature, their underlying dynamics and interactions with other economies remain challenging and mysterious because standard financial models measure them imprecisely. Describing the linkages between emerging and developed markets, this collection systematically explores several crucial issues in asset valuation and risk management. Contributors present new theoretical constructions and empirical methods for handling cross-country volatility and sudden regime shifts. Usually attractive for investors because of the superior growth they can deliver, emerging markets can have a low correlation with developed markets. This collection advances your knowledge about their inherent characteristics. Foreword by Ali M. Kutan - Concentrates on post-crisis roles of emerging markets in the global economy - Reports on key theoretical and technical developments in emerging financial markets - Forecasts future developments in linkages among developed and emerging economies

Download or read book Income And Wealth From Self Directed Investing written by Ian Duncan MacDonald and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2001, after an investment adviser lost $300,000 of Ian MacDonald`s money, he took what was left and self-managed it. His investment objective was to build a stock scoring program that would give him an annual dividend income worth 6% of his portfolio, while increasing the value of that portfolio every year by about 9% (his background was in building commercial risk scoring computer programs for the banks and other businesses). He succeeded in his objective. While he had developed that stock scoring program for his own use, in 2019 he used it to help an elderly lady who had suffered a catastrophic financial loss, due to am investment adviser`s greed. After much of her loss had been recovered and her monthly income had doubled, she told Ian MacDonald that he needed to write a book to help people like her who knew little about investing and could easily be taken advantage of . He wrote that book. It is called, "Income and Wealth from Self-Directed Investing".He includes that PC stock scoring program with his 300 page book. To further help investors, in the last 100 pages of the book, are charts listing all the companies traded on the TSX that pay a dividend of 3.5% or more. Four sorts of the data in these charts is provided: by score, stock price, dividend percent and by company name. The data sorts make it easy and fast to identify and weigh which stocks are the best ones to add to your portfolio. Like the elderly widow, there are many who fear that they will outlive their life savings? They feel forced to use investment advisers because no one has shown them how to invest safely. Ian MacDonald`s book takes away the fear of investing by explaining, the following in easy to understand language: (1) The danger of entrusting your money to an investment adviser whose fees and hidden agenda could drain your savings.(2) Why investing in dividend paying common stock is the safest way for you to invest, as compared to bonds, mutual funds, etc. (3) How to open an online self-directed stock trading account without having to involve bank employees.(4) How to easily find for your portfolio the best twenty stocks for capital gain and the highest dividends.(5) How to find and sort potential stock purchases from best to worse, so you can pick the twenty best and safest.(6) How to verify that stocks have no harmful information attached to them that could potentially be a problem if purchased.(7) How to purchase a stock you have carefully chosen, in less than five minutes.(8) How to quickly and easily monitor your purchased stocks on a daily, monthly and quarterly basis.The stock market is not a casino and what Ian MacDonald teaches is not a get rich quick scheme. It is a logical, easy to understand method of investing. Since implementing his scoring system, his portfolio has grown by 300% while generating a steady ever growing retirement income. He thinks every investor should now know exactly what they are invested in and understand why they are invested in it. Through booming times and recessions there is no reason your self-directed portfolio can not generate a reliable monthly income and grow year-after-year.

Book excerpt: ...the relationship between employment growth and output growth...is greatly affected by the functioning, efficiency and institutional structure of the labor market. --Joseph Stiglitz, Chief Economist Despite the resumption of economic growth in most LAC countries since the late 1980s, improvements on the employment/unemployment front have been sluggish at best, with a few notable exceptions. In many countries, renewed growth in LAC in the 1990s has so far failed to generate adequate new jobs in place of those lost during the adjustment, and to restore wages to pre-crisis levels. The focus of this book is on: · the performance of labor markets in the LAC region since the beginning of significant structural reforms most countries in the region have undertaken · the structure of labor markets, institutions, and incentive structures; · the effects of that structure on employment, earnings, income distribution, and poverty levels; · the role of labor market institutions in labor market trends; · the options for reform and the benefits of comprehensive labor reforms, as evidenced inside and outside the region; · labor policy reforms to improve in a sustainable way the employment/unemployment outlook.
