World Insurance Report 2014 from Capgemini and EfmaCapgemini
As digital interactions steadily increase, insurers now have the web, mobile, and social media as the quintessential business platforms for shaping and evolving customer experiences, and ultimately, their brand and profitability. The World Insurance Report 2014 from Capgemini and Efma assesses the digital capabilities of more than 250 insurers in 14 countries. It identifies where leading best practices exist and the tactical approaches that can turn a digital presence into a differentiating customer experience.
Featuring data from over 15,500 customers across North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific, Capgemini’s exclusive Customer Experience Index (CEI) exposes the increasing gap that exists between insurers who are seekers of providing positive customer experiences versus those that are delighting customers with a strong digital service offering. The difference between the two is having direct impact on firm profitability.
Addressing both life and non-life segments, the World Insurance Report 2014 covers 30 insurance markets and includes insights from 97 senior executive interviews.

Indian Microfinance - Looking Beyond The AP Act and its Devastating Impact on...hamishbanks
The paper documents the disastrous consequences of legislation passed by Government of Andhra Pradesh in December 2010, and how this has brought about a national crisis. The legislation - the AP Act - not only undermines India’s financial inclusion agenda but also punishes the poor in every state across India. We welcome and encourage the swift passage of the upcoming microfinance Bill through Parliament, which should ultimately supersede the AP Act. While the Bill must be passed at the earliest to avoid further damaging the lives of India’s poor, the report highlights provisions in the Bill and recent RBI circular on NBFC-MFIs that threaten to undermine the Bill’s intentions. Finally, it examines the important role of the private sector in contributing to the challenge of facilitating financial inclusion to India’s 450 million unbanked citizens.

The mobile channel is increasingly important to retail financial services firms. This is driven by a variety of factors, including the widespread adoption of smartphones, more powerful phone operating systems and,
crucially, the rise of Millennial customers.
In our February 2016 survey of online investors, 71% of Millennials indicated that they had logged into their
brokerage account using a mobile device in the past 12 months, compared to 44% of Baby Boomers. Further,
51% of Millennials said that their brokerage firm’s mobile capabilities were “very important” or “extremely
important” to them, versus 23% of Baby Boomers. Our recent surveys of retirement plan participants and bank
customers show similar generational differences. Collectively, these surveys suggest mobile will increasingly define the digital experience for financial services as Millennials become the industry’s core customer base.
To accommodate changing customer demographics and the growing significance of the mobile experience, we expect financial services firms to continue to enhance their apps this year. Developments may include 3D Touch and leveraging such cutting edge capabilities as artificial intelligence (AI), voice technology and expanded biometric authentication techniques. Some will likely introduce more personalized content and offer easier access to key account information (e.g., pre-login), making it simpler for clients to interact with them. In this annual mobile trends
review, we explore these and other trends and innovations that are likely to shape the mobile experience this year and beyond.

Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.
how to sell pi coins in South Korea profitably.DOT TECH
Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.

Well for those who haven't traded with a pi merchant or who don't already have one. I will leave the telegram id of my personal pi merchant who i trade pi with.

A verified merchant is someone who buys pi network coins and resell it to exchanges looking forward to hold till mainnet launch.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.
how can I sell pi coins after successfully completing KYCDOT TECH
Pi coins is not launched yet in any exchange 💱 this means it's not swappable, the current pi displaying on coin market cap is the iou version of pi. And you can learn all about that on my previous post.
RIGHT NOW THE ONLY WAY you can sell pi coins is through verified pi merchants. A pi merchant is someone who buys pi coins and resell them to exchanges and crypto whales. Looking forward to hold massive quantities of pi coins before the mainnet launch.
This is because pi network is not doing any pre-sale or ico offerings, the only way to get my coins is from buying from miners. So a merchant facilitates the transactions between the miners and these exchanges holding pi.
I and my friends has sold more than 6000 pi coins successfully with this method. I will be happy to share the contact of my personal pi merchant. The one i trade with, if you have your own merchant you can trade with them. For those who are new.
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram.
I wouldn't advise you selling all percentage of the pi coins. Leave at least a before so its a win win during open mainnet. Have a nice day pioneers ♥️

and features increasing lifetime withdrawal percentages every year
until withdrawals begin.
The product is made available for Wells Fargo clients through a Wells

up to ten years or until
lifetime income
payments begin.
A one-time early access

and will not affect income

crediting strategies with flexible premiums.
Both products also offer a death benefit and a nursing home/terminal
illness waiver.
An optional VoyaRenewalFLEX feature allows clients to withdraw all or
part of the accumulation value on or around the premium anniversary.
11. FIDELITY’S METLIFE ACCUMULATION ANNUITYANNUITIES
Introduced in late November, this new deferred variable annuity
product is exclusive to Fidelity, which manages the underlying
investments held by contract holders.
A key feature of the new MetLife Accumulation Annuity includes a
principal guarantee that converts an investor’s initial investment and is
adjusted for withdrawals contract holders take, which becomes fully
effective at 10 years following the annuity purchase.
The MetLife Accumulation Annuity offers customers one investment
option: a Fidelity fund-of-funds portfolio that allocates 42% of assets to
U.S. stocks, 18% to international stocks, 35% to bonds and 5% to money
market funds.
12. LINCOLN DEFERRED INCOME SOLUTIONSANNUITIES
Enhancements to the pre-existing Lincoln Deferred Income Solutions
annuity were unveiled in November.
The firm added new flexible premium options and a shorter minimum
deferral period that allows clients to begin taking income as early as
thirteen months.
The product allows clients to select when they begin receiving income
payments, and the payment amount is determined at the start of the
contract.
Additionally, optional death benefit protection is available during the
deferral and income phases.
13. PRINCIPAL PIVOT SERIES VARIABLE ANNUITYANNUITIES
The variable annuity product offers a broad assortment of investment
options with three different strategies that are personalized, guided or

investment options based on their life situation.

and guaranteed level 10, 15 and 20 year products, and replaced the
pre-existing AXA Equitable Term Series.
The majority of the product features remain the same, including the
guaranteed level premiums and optional living benefits rider.
However, the new BrightLife Term 10, 15 and 20 year products now
offer BrightLife ART (annual renewable term) guaranteed premiums for
the first three policy years that never exceed the guaranteed maximum
premiums shown in the policy.
17. LIFEINSURANCE
The new survivorship indexed universal life insurance product was
introduced in December.
The policy provides an income tax-free death benefit at the end of the
second insured’s life, thus enabling policy holders to transfer a greater
inheritance to beneficiaries, provide proceeds to pay estate taxes,
continue a business or meet other financial needs.
The new LifeEnhance Accelerated Benefits Rider – available with all SIUL
policies – provides access to tax-advantaged funds through acceleration
of the policy death benefit when insureds develop a qualifying
permanent chronic or terminal illness.
