中國銀行在中國經濟及金融改革下的發展, Hiu Kwong Leung Oct 2001

中國銀行在中國經濟及金融改革下的發展, Hiu Kwong Leung

Lingnan Theses

中國是一個發展中國家,同時又處於由計劃經濟向市場經濟轉型的過程,其改革代表著「金融深化」(Financial Deepening) 的發展。本文首先扼要闡釋中國的金融體制改革與金融深化的理據和實況,接著再詳細探討中國銀行在金融及外匯改革之下其業務的特徵及轉變。

在中國金融改革的過程中,中國銀行的管理體制及其營運方式與中國政府的經濟政策依然保持著一定的「轉型期」關係。這明顯反映於中國銀行的資產負債結構和其營運效率指標之上,如盈利率與資本充足率等。經過二十多年的改革,中國銀行仍然未能完全擺脫政府的融資計劃的影響;在發展商業業務的同時仍然或多或少地執行著政府的政策性業務;基本上仍扮演著一個「發展銀行」 (Development Bank) 的角色和功能。

純粹從微觀經濟的角度來分析,中國銀行的這種「雙重」性格,難免在一定的程度上削弱了其風險、流動性和盈利性管理的能力和意識,並減低其經營效率和整體實力。這種矛盾明顯可見於大陸的中國銀行總行及香港分行兩者間的差異。大陸中國銀行的這些弱點在中國加入世界貿易組織之後,因為外資銀行的競爭與挑戰將更形突出。這將帶動政府對整個銀行體制進行進一步商業化[的改革與調整,包括銀行資產重組及利率自由化等措施。

Many Voices, One Umma: Sociopolitical Debate In The Muslim Community, James A. Toronto Oct 2001

Many Voices, One Umma: Sociopolitical Debate In The Muslim Community, James A. Toronto

BYU Studies

As a religion expands beyond its original setting, it encounters new historical, economic, social, and geopolitical forces. The resulting clash between sacred truth and secular reality created ideological tensions within a religious community that lead its followers to engage in a process of dialogue, reform, and reconciliation. This process of dialectical exchange occurs both between members of the community and between the community and outside forces. Often it gives rise to traumatic, even violent, conflict and frequently leads to schisms and the establishment of break-away religious movements. The history of religion provides abundant evidence that the ability of a nascent …


Jerusalem's Role As A Holy City For Muslims, Chad F. Emmett Oct 2001

Jerusalem's Role As A Holy City For Muslims, Chad F. Emmett

BYU Studies

When Pope John Paul II made his historic March 2000 pilgrimage to the Holy Land, he did so with the hopes of building bridges and fostering peace. While in Jerusalem, he scheduled a meeting with Jewish, Christian, and Muslim leaders to symbolize his ongoing desire for religious reconciliation. The meeting turned out to be less than conciliatory, especially in regard to Jerusalem. When Chief Rabbi Yisrael Meir Lau of Israel's Ashkenazic community praised the pope for his "'recognition of Jerusalem as its united, eternal capital'," some audience members shouted out that the pope had not recognized Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem. …


Al-Ghazali, A Muslim Seeker Of Truth, Brian M. Hauglid Oct 2001

Al-Ghazali, A Muslim Seeker Of Truth, Brian M. Hauglid

BYU Studies

In conjunction with some noted Islamicists and under the leadership of Daniel C. Peterson, associate professor of Asian and Near Eastern Languages at BYU, several significant Islamic texts are being or will be translated into English and published in order to make these texts available to the West. The first published volume of the Islamic Translation Series: Philosophy, Theology, and Mysticism is The Incoherence of the Philosophers (Tahafut al-Falasifa), written by al-Ghazali (d. 1111). It seems fitting to begin such a series with a work by al-Ghazali, as he holds an esteemed place in the Islamic world. However, Latter-day …


The Day The “Brave Sons Of Mohamed” Saved A Group Of Mormons, David P. Charles Oct 2001

The Day The “Brave Sons Of Mohamed” Saved A Group Of Mormons, David P. Charles

BYU Studies

On March 13, 1899, a small number of Latter-day Saints visited the Armenian cemetery of Aintab (modern Gaziantep), a then-provincial town in what is today southern central Turkey. In this group were two American missionaries, Philip S. Maycock and Joseph W. Booth, and several Armenian converts. Many of the area's Christians were observing Shrove Monday (the first day of Lent), and the cemetery, following Armenian tradition, was crowded with people picnicking and commemorating the loss of loved ones. Recognizing the situation as an opportunity to preach the gospel, the Saints gathered with some friends in a small ravine nearby, where …


College Students’ Perceptions Of The C-Print Speech-To-Text Transcription System, Lisa B. Elliot, Michael Stinson, Barbara G. Mckee, Victoria S. Everhart, Pamela J. Francis Oct 2001

College Students’ Perceptions Of The C-Print Speech-To-Text Transcription System, Lisa B. Elliot, Michael Stinson, Barbara G. Mckee, Victoria S. Everhart, Pamela J. Francis

Articles

C-Print is a real-time speech-to-text transcription system used as a support service with deaf students in mainstreamed classes. Questionnaires were administered to 36 college students in 32 courses in which the C-Print system was used in addition to interpreting and notetaking. Twenty-two of these students were also interviewed. Questionnaire items included student ratings of lecture comprehension. Student ratings indicated good comprehension with C-Print, and the mean rating was significantly higher than that for understanding of the interpreter. Students also rated the hard-copy printout provided by C-Print as helpful, and they reported that they used these notes more frequently than the …


Presentation And Symptom Predictors Of Coronary Heart Disease In Patients With And Without Diabetes, Marjorie Funk, Janice B. Naum, Kerry A. Milner, Deborah Chyun Oct 2001

Presentation And Symptom Predictors Of Coronary Heart Disease In Patients With And Without Diabetes, Marjorie Funk, Janice B. Naum, Kerry A. Milner, Deborah Chyun

Nursing Faculty Publications

The aims of this prospective, observational study were to compare: (1) symptom presentation of coronary heart disease (CHD) between patients with and without diabetes and (2) symptom predictors of CHD in patients with and without diabetes. We directly observed 528 patients with symptoms suggestive of CHD as they presented to the ED of a 900-bed cardiac referral center in the northeastern United States. There were no significant differences in symptom presentation of CHD between patients with and without diabetes, although patients with diabetes were slightly more likely to present with shortness of breath (P =.056). Patients with diabetes reported …

Work Family Policies And Perceptions Of Fairness: Perspectives On Supervisor Support And Work Schedule Control, Emily R. Blodgett Oct 2001

Work Family Policies And Perceptions Of Fairness: Perspectives On Supervisor Support And Work Schedule Control, Emily R. Blodgett

Student Work

In response to increasing degrees o f work and family conflict, some companies have implemented work and family policies. However, evidence suggests that many companies will not implement work and family policies because they believe that some employees will feel that the policies are unfair, although this claim has been made with only minimal empirical evidence. This study examined employees’ fairness perceptions of work/family policies. It was hypothesized that employees who might benefit from a work/family policy would feel that the policy was more fair than would employees who would not benefit from such a policy. To test this hypothesis, …

Diversity And Productivity In A Long-Term Grassland Experiment, David Tilman, Peter B. Reich, Johannes Knops, David A. Wedin, Troy Mielke, Clarence Lehman Oct 2001

Diversity And Productivity In A Long-Term Grassland Experiment, David Tilman, Peter B. Reich, Johannes Knops, David A. Wedin, Troy Mielke, Clarence Lehman

School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications

Plant diversity and niche complementarity had progressively stronger effects on ecosystem functioning during a 7-year experiment, with 16-species plots attaining 2.7 times greater biomass than monocultures. Diversity effects were neither transients nor explained solely by a few productive or unviable species. Rather, many higher-diversity plots outperformed the best monoculture. These results help resolve debate over biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, show effects at higher than expected diversity levels, and demonstrate, for these ecosystems, that even the best-chosen monocultures cannot achieve greater productivity or carbon stores than higher-diversity sites.
