Analysis Of Co-Movements Between The Capital Markets In Brazil And The United States, Daniel Reed Bergmann, Wesley Mendes-Da-Silva Oct 2011

Analysis Of Co-Movements Between The Capital Markets In Brazil And The United States, Daniel Reed Bergmann, Wesley Mendes-Da-Silva

Wesley Mendes-Da-Silva

In this article copula theory is used to analyze the co-movements between the Brazilian and American capital markets. To formulate an effective asset allocation strategy, it is important to understand extreme events – both positive (booms) and negative (crashes) – and their effects on markets. The market indexes used are the Ibovespa and the S&P 500, covering the period from March 2001 to April 2007. We tested the adherence to the log-returns of the main copulas found in the financial literature, using the following criteria: log-likelihood, Akaike information criterion and Bayesian information criterion. The results show that the symmetrized Joe-Clayton …


Capital Account Liberalization, Financial Development And Industry Growth: A Synthetic View, Rachita Gullapalli, Barry Eichengreen, Ugo Panizza Oct 2011

Capital Account Liberalization, Financial Development And Industry Growth: A Synthetic View, Rachita Gullapalli, Barry Eichengreen, Ugo Panizza

Rachita Gullapalli

This paper synthesizes studies analyzing the effects of capital account liberalization on industry growth while controlling for financial crises, domestic financial development and the strength of institutions. We find evidence that financial openness has positive effects on the growth of financially dependent industries, although these growth-enhancing effects evaporate during financial crises. Further analysis indicates that the positive effects of capital account liberalization are limited to countries with relatively well-developed financial systems, good accounting standards, strong creditor rights and rule of law. It suggests that countries must reach a certain threshold in terms of institutional and economic development before they can …


Spend Your Money On Income Generating Activities Rather Than Liabilities, George E. Ekeha Sep 2011

Spend Your Money On Income Generating Activities Rather Than Liabilities, George E. Ekeha

George E Ekeha

Many at times as I walk around town, in the cities and the country sides I try to observe how we live our lives in Ghana. In my previous article, I highlight some very important resources that we are endowed with in this country. We all know that those are just but few and we are proud that we have more resources than some of our neighbours in the Sub-Saharan African countries. One of these resources is the human capital. We can be proud of ourselves to have people who think about the necessity of peace in order to enhance …


Savings Habits Of African Women, The Case Of Ghanaian Market Women, George E. Ekeha Sep 2011

Savings Habits Of African Women, The Case Of Ghanaian Market Women, George E. Ekeha

George E Ekeha

Recent economic developments in Africa have led to increased educational opportunities and new jobs for the millions of people living in the continent. Specifically, the development changes have had a significant impact on the female population in the member countries as more and more women continue to gain access to training and education and obtain the skills and qualifications needed to enter into the workforce. Due to these recent developments, women in Africa have been able to gain more control over their own finances. As a result, women entrepreneurs in most African countries have become increasingly important drivers of growth …

Quality Education And Tailor-Made Skills Development Is Needed To Solve Unemployment Problem In Ghana, George E. Ekeha Jul 2011

Quality Education And Tailor-Made Skills Development Is Needed To Solve Unemployment Problem In Ghana, George E. Ekeha

George E Ekeha

The issue of unemployment have been one of the major problems in the country for sometime now. Many opinion leaders, youth activist and other concerned groups and individuals have expressed their worries on the issue. In recent times there have been some group calling itself Unemployed Graduate Association of Ghana (UGAG) and many youth groups advocating for pressure on the governments to create jobs in the country as promised in their manifestos. Their intention was to send message out there to leaders about the fact that they have some skills to be implemented on the job markets but cannot find …


Capital Budgeting Practices And Economic Development: A Comparative Study Of Companies In Western Europe And West Africa, George E. Ekeha Jun 2011

Capital Budgeting Practices And Economic Development: A Comparative Study Of Companies In Western Europe And West Africa, George E. Ekeha

George E Ekeha

Over the years, efforts have been made to increase the developmental strides of African countries. Many projects move from donor countries like the United Kingdom and the United State into Africa to help improve the lives of the people. However, these efforts have not been able to redeem Africa from abject poverty and indebtedness to the West. Various projects that are targeted towards the reduction of poverty are normally completed with no changes in the lives of the people. These projects, in my opinion, have not been scrutinised to assess their capabilities of meeting some stated target.

Capital budgeting practices …

The Banks In Ghana Reported Huge Increase In Profit, George E. Ekeha Mar 2011

The Banks In Ghana Reported Huge Increase In Profit, George E. Ekeha

George E Ekeha

The past few months ago, we have been inundated by news about the banks’ profit. If we take a glance at their published accounts in the dailies, we could see how most of them had a jump in their profits over the years. Some had as much as 900% rise in their profit. Amazing, isn’t it? We have heard the officials of these banks tried to justify the huge spread in their lending and the borrowing rates, blaming it on various issues like non-performing loans and overhead costs and many others, refer to my previous article. They claimed they cannot …


Be Careful About The Menace Of The Banks And Microfinance Companies, George E. Ekeha Mar 2011

Be Careful About The Menace Of The Banks And Microfinance Companies, George E. Ekeha

George E Ekeha

Currently, according to the Ghana Banking Survey 2010 by PriceWaterHouseCoopers, there are twenty six (26) registered banks with over 740 branches operating in the country offering several products designed to attract the average Ghanaian (with more in the pipeline because of the oil flow). Some years ago (may be 10 years or more), there were very few banks in the country with their products mostly designed towards the elite few. It was a common thing to see very long and winding queues extending several kilometres outside the banking halls of most of these banks. Especially the Ghana Commercial Bank (GCB), …

Il Comitato Per Il Controllo Interno E Per La Revisione Contabile Introdotto Dall’Art. 19 Del D.Lgs. 39/2010: Riflessioni In Sede Di Prima Istituzione Alla Luce Delle Indicazioni Dell’Unione Europea, Claudio Sottoriva

Claudio Sottoriva

L’esperienza nazionale in tema di costituzione di “comitati” interni all’organo amministrativo si arricchisce, alla luce del D.Lgs. 39/2010, del comitato per il controllo interno e per la revisione contabile ai sensi dell’art. 19 dello stesso. Facendo riferimento alla realtà italiana ed europea in generale si evidenzia la progressiva sperimentazione di formule compositive degli organi amministrativi e di controllo finalizzate ad una loro maggiore specializzazione secondo quanto previsto dai principali codici di autodisciplina (soprattutto avuto riguardo alle società aventi titoli negoziati in mercati regolamentati). Il comitato ex art. 19 del D.Lgs. 39/2010 è previsto per tutti gli enti di interesse nazionale …

Chinese Reverse Mergers, Accounting Regimes, And The Rule Of Law In China, Benjamin A. Templin Jan 2011

Chinese Reverse Mergers, Accounting Regimes, And The Rule Of Law In China, Benjamin A. Templin

Benjamin A. Templin

In 2010, federal regulators and politicians became increasingly concerned over the accounting practices of Chinese companies that trade on U.S. stock exchanges. In particular, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) targeted companies that went public through a process called the reverse merger. The instances of fraud became so widespread, regulators and commentators coined the term Chinese Reverse Merger (“CRM”) in order to describe a sector where investors assume the risk of accounting irregularities. Although CRMs must comply with international accounting standards, a weak rule of law in China has resulted in poor implementation and enforcement of its accounting regime. U.S. …
