Global growth is moderatng as the recovery in trade
and manufacturing actvity loses steam. Despite
ongoing negotatons, trade tensions among major
economies remain elevated. These tensions, combined
with concerns about sofening global growth prospects, have weighed on investor sentment and contributed to
declines in global equity prices. Borrowing costs for
emerging market and developing economies (EMDEs)
have increased, in part as major advanced-economy
central banks contnue to withdraw policy
accommodaton in varying degrees. A strengthening
U.S. dollar, heightened financial market volatlity, and
rising risk premiums have intensified capital outlow
and currency pressures in some large EMDEs, with
some vulnerable countries experiencing substantal
financial stress. Energy prices have fluctuated markedly,
mainly due to supply factors, with sharp falls toward
the end of 2018. Economic actvity in the Euro Area has
been somewhat weaker than previously expected,
owing to slowing net exports. EMDE growth edged
down to an estmated 4.2 percent in 2018 as a number
of countries with elevated current account deficits
experienced substantal financial market pressures and
appreciable slowdowns in actvity. In low-income
countries (LICs), growth is firming as infrastructure
investment contnues and easing drought conditons
support a rebound in agricultural output.

The 4C’s of Master Data - The Fundamental Elements of Commercial RelationshipsDun & Bradstreet
Customer, vendor, partner and prospect are the fundamental elements of commercial relationships. To manage those entities, they need a common structure. Here are four ways to master your data.
The D&B U.S. Economic Health Tracker exhibited resilience in May 2014. Readings on the small business community continued to stabilize although the anticipated bounce back has so far failed to materialize. In the meantime, some 297,000 new non-farm jobs were created, driven by strong gains in the business services and trade/transportation/utilities segments. Finally, the U.S. Business Health Index strengthened once again in May, registering a 54-percent index value, the highest recorded level since the index began in December 2010. U.S. businesses show sustained balance sheet and financial health, based on the weighted average of D&B's Viability Rating, Delinquency Predictor, and Total Loss Predictor. In spite of accelerating business expansion, lackluster economic growth and uncertainty remain significant restraints and should be monitored closely heading into the third quarter.
This report outlines the global macroeconomic trends that are expected to impact businesses over the next five years. Valuable insight includes the challenges of the post-recession recovery, as well as the risks and opportunities facing businesses in established and emerging regional economies.

Quarterly Report. Perspectives on Global and Spanish economy Q2-2019Círculo de Empresarios
The main international organisations (IMF, OECD, European Commission, etc.) continue to downgrade their growth expectations in light of the new geopolitical and economic scenario. Q1 2019 has been marked by the darkening economic outlook, the waning confidence of the private sector, and the mounting global uncertainty, which is at record levels of 2016, mainly due to the impact of trade tensions between the US and China, the fears associated with Brexit, the weakening of the multilateral trade, the lack of leadership, and the rise of populism.
Globally, the slowdown in growth is confirmed, although better prospects are maintained for 2020. In advanced economies, there is a less robust & synchronised progress, symptoms of nearing the end of the expansion phase of the business cycle, and the US & euro area economies are decoupling. The US maintains a growth rate of over 2% per year & an unemployment rate at record lows, although the expansionary effect of its fiscal policy is beginning to subside. On the other hand, there is less dynamism in the EU, mainly due to the weakness of the German industry, the political & economic fragility of Italy, and the institutional crisis of the United Kingdom stemming from the indetermination of the final agreement of the Brexit.
Macroeconomic imbalances persist in emerging countries, mainly in Turkey and Argentina, given their high debt levels, and the evolution of their growth & inflation rates. All this in a context contingent on the monetary policy of the main central banks, the evolution of oil price & other raw materials, the trade war, and lower profits margins.

Will risks-derail-the-modest-recovery-oecd-interim-economic-outlook-march-2017OECD, Economics Department
Global GDP growth is projected to pick up modestly to around 3½ per cent in 2018, from just under 3% in 2016, boosted by fiscal initiatives in the major economies. The forecast is broadly unchanged since November 2016. Confidence has improved, but consumption, investment, trade and productivity are far from strong, with growth slow by past norms and higher inequality.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Real GDP (Forecast) Real GDP (Actual)
Inflation (Forecast) Inflation (Actual)
• Some metrics of economic performance that the fundamentals of the economy are solid: for example,
domestic output expanded by 0.5% quarter on quarter in Q3.
• Inflation is also gradually picking up on account of a cheaper pound (albeit remaining well below the
Bank of England’s medium-term target of 2%).
18. 18Follow us on Twitter @DnBUS | #DnBEconBrief
Key Economic Indicators
• Retail trade growth accelerated
over the quarter.
• Markit/CIPS’s UK Construction
PMI tallies with the suggested
strengthening of momentum in
the sector.
• Overall, forward-looking indicators also bode well for future economic activity, with
Markit’s Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) for the manufacturing sector rising to its
highest level since mid-2014.
19. 19Follow us on Twitter @DnBUS | #DnBEconBrief
Business Failures
Dun & Bradstreet data for Q3 show a drop in the amount of corporate insolvencies: some 14%
lower than the preceding quarter, possibly tracking the resilience of the economy, which expanded
more than previously anticipated in the three months to September.
20. 20Follow us on Twitter @DnBUS | #DnBEconBrief
Prompt Payment Snapshot
Despite stronger-than expected real GDP growth in Q3, a weaker pound, and robust retail sales,
Dun & Bradstreet’s data reveals that the proportions of prompt payments decreased slightly over
the quarter.

Despite the current economic bonanza, Dun & Bradstreet predicts that
Brexit’s medium- to long-term economic impact on the UK will be
significant and negative.
We have downgraded the country’s risk rating from DB2c to DB2d (still just within
the ‘low risk’ category). We are also maintaining our ‘deteriorating’ rating outlook.
Prime Minister Theresa May’s government intended line of action likely to make it
increasingly unlikely that the UK will retain access to the EU’s common market once
Brexit is eventually completed.
The possible loss of the passporting rights that currently allow UK-based banks to
operate across the EU is a major source of concern.
o Brexit could take a heavy toll on the UK’s financial sector: up to 70,000 finance
industry jobs could be lost if Britain leaves the EU, according to the industry
body TheCityUK.
Several other UK-listed companies, are being affected by a weaker pound.
22. 22Follow us on Twitter @DnBUS | #DnBEconBrief
The Baseline Scenario
• Parliament will approve Article 50 invocation
• PM invokes Article 50 in Q1 2017
• EU membership ends Q1 2019
• However: transition deal required post Q1 2019
• Hence: EU laws likely to remain in force until early 2020s
• After that: Free Trade Agreement
24. 24Follow us on Twitter @DnBUS | #DnBEconBrief
The economic outlook is improving:
There is reason to believe that the economy is switching into a slightly higher gear in
the final months of the year;
Inflation rates remain low, albeit rising, real wage growth is still robust, and the labour
market also continues to provide good news…
… However, political risk is rising:
Upcoming elections in the Netherlands, France and Germany in 2017, in addition to
Brexit.
Weak minority government in Spain in October 2016 and the prospect of government
collapse over the outcome of a referendum in November in Italy.
The outcome of US presidential elections could bolster consensus for anti-EU parties.

• An impasse regarding the implementation of the
Canada and European Union Comprehensive
Economic Trade Agreement (CETA) has been
resolved.
• Despite the compromise, the treaty still requires ratification
by all national and regional parliaments of EU member
nations.
• High levels of doubt surround the longevity of the North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA)
• Enactment of Article 2205 remains in the realm of possibility.
• Official withdrawal only six-months after notice is given.

Risks
FX Risk: Brexit and Trump-related
uncertainties continue to weigh on emerging

Business Regulatory Environment:
Deteriorating government finances (due to
lower-for longer oil prices) lead to hikes in
business taxes and reductions in financial
incentives for foreign investors
Moderate probability
Political/Insecurity Risk: Escalating
geopolitical tensions between Russia and the
West prompt a direct conflict
Low probability
Opportunities
Market Potential: Brexit and Trump presidency
could mean Western sanctions on Russia eased in
2017 - opening up opportunities for exporters and
investors in the energy, defence and financial sectors
Moderate probability
Market Potential: Lower-for-longer oil prices
drives economic diversification and funnels
government investment into nascent sectors with
promising long-term potential, e.g. agriculture and
renewable energy
High probability
Long-Term Economic Potential: Lower-for-longer
oil prices prompts governments to undertake
significant structural reforms

Key Recommendations
Assess the impact of potential changes in US trade and immigration
policies on exports of agriculture (South America) and manufactured
goods (Mexico) as well as remittance inflows (Mexico, Central America).
Follow Brexit-related developments vis-à-vis changes to UK and EU
market access. Watch for new bilateral trade deals in the wake of Brexit
but expect delays in finalization of agreements.
Monitor leading currencies' volatility against the dollar. Hedge foreign
exchange risks, where possible.
Ensure compliance with anti-corruption laws to minimize reputational
risk.
Expect ongoing challenges with bureaucracy, inadequate infrastructure
and corruption.

What is Blockchain?
Blockchain or ‘distributed ledger technology’ is a way of electronically storing
information that is or can be:
a) Immutable (the parties involved cannot change information that has been stored
previously)
b) Allows real time clearing (if the information tracks the movement of a real-world
unit, that unit’s whereabouts and status will be recorded in real time)
c) Universally accessible and transparent
d) Protection is enabled by cryptography rather than a centralised authority
Some of this is (still) somewhat idealistic as the technology is not impervious to being
hacked (Mt Gox/Ethereum thefts)
