International Banking - presentation involves introduction to IB, Types, Services Offered, Reasons, Features and Benefits, Its Working, Challenges, and Trends in IB
The project presentation talks about public and private banks. It compares the two sectors by analyzing the financial details and the products and services provided by each of the two sectors. This is done by taking case study of two banks - State Bank of India in public sector and ICICI bank in private sector. Both of these banks are leading in their respective sectors.
CPAs responsibilities to detect fraud in audits, required approaches, types of financial statement frauds and specific case examples of different types of financial statement fraud
The term offshore company or offshore corporation is used in at least two distinct and different ways. An offshore company may be a reference to:
a corporation or (sometimes) other type of legal entity which is incorporated or registered in an offshore financial centre or "tax haven"; or
a company or corporate group (or sometimes a division thereof) which engages in offshoring manufacturing or business services.
Characteristics of offshore companies
They are broadly not subject to taxation in their home jurisdiction.
The corporate regime will be designed to promote business flexibility.
Regulation of corporate activities will normally be lighter than in a developed country.
Classifying offshore companies:
Companies which are exempt from taxation in their jurisdiction of registration provided that they do not undertake business with persons resident in that jurisdiction (IBCs).
Offshore jurisdictions which simply do not impose any form of taxation on companies, and so their companies are de facto tax exempt.

Globally, the ship finance sector is facing one of the worst crises in terms of getting finances for their projects. Shipping companies are finding it tough to get conventional bank financing due to strained liquidity and tight credit conditions. The ship finance sector is facing one of its darkest times. Historically, ship finance was undertaken by International Conventional Banks and these banks have been hit so hard that a few of them may face bankruptcy. Despite the gloomy outlook for the global economy which has affected the entire industry and projections that depict the recovery of the global economy as an “L-shaped” rather than a “V-shaped” curve. The shipping sector has had seven huge years before “falling off a cliff” due to the global credit crisis. Banks in the region are still reluctant to lent money, and as long as banks don\'t start lending the shipping business is not going to go up. Banks are sitting on the debts of poor performing companies and have not been quick to enforce their rights. 2009 was a year when facilities were amended and defaults waived which is happening throughout the world. The question remains to be seen as to whether or not there is sufficient equity within the shipping sector to keep the ship owners going over the coming year or whether we are experiencing a \'W\' type of recessionary curve with the second downward part of the curve to hit the markets in 2010. Considering all above issues with the conventional banking system to support the shipping industry moving, Islamic finance is emerging as a credible alternative source of ship finance.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Francesca Gottschalk - How can education support child empowerment.pptxEduSkills OECD
Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.
4. Agha Hasan Abedi was born in a well off Shia Muslim family
in Lucknow, British Indian and migrated to Pakistan.
He started his career with Habib Bank before independence,
He brought about significant changes in Pakistan's banking
culture when he founded the UBL in 1959.
He was its first general manager and quickly arose to the
position of president and chairman of the board of directors.
Under his stewardship, UBL became the second largest bank in Pakistan.
5. Mr Agha introduced a mass of professional innovations, including the concept
of personalised service and banking support to trade and industry, and paying
particular attention to the bank's overseas operations.
Mr Agha initiated close economic collaboration in the private sector between Pakistan
and the UAE. The UAE President, Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan extended his
investment to UBL operations both in Pakistan and abroad.
When banking was nationalised in Pakistan in 1972, Mr Agha
founded the Bank of Credit and Commerce International with
the Bank of America NT & SA (National Trust and
Savings Association) as a major shareholder.
6. Bank of Credit and Commerce International
(BCCI)
BCCI was a major international bank founded in 1972 by Agha
Hasan Abedi, a Pakistani financier
The Bank was registered in Luxembourg with head offices
in Karachi and London.
Within a decade BCCI was operating in 78 countries, had over 400
branches, and had assets in excess of US$20 billion, making it the
7th largest private bank in the world by assets.
7. Expanded rapidly in 1970s, pursuing long-term asset growth over profits, seeking
high net-worth individuals and regular large deposits.
Divided itself into BCCI Holdings with the bank under that splitting into BCCI SA
(Luxembourg) and BCCI Overseas (Grand Cayman).
BCCI also acquired parallel banks through acquisitions: buying the Banque de
Commerce et Placements (BCP) of Geneva in1976,creating KIFCO (Kuwait
International Finance Company), Credit & Finance Corporation Ltd.
The Complexity…
8. BCCI had an unusual annual auditing system:
Price Waterhouse Cooper were the accountants for BCCI Overseas
While Ernst & Young audited BCCI and BCCI Holdings (London and Luxembourg).
Other companies such as KIFCO and ICIC were audited by neither.
BCCI was shut down in 1991 after Bank of England
audits revealed that fraud, improper loans and
unreliable accounting practices had been discovered
9. BCCI was involved in:
Money laundering
Tax elusion
Bribery, smuggling, arms transferring
Illegal purchases of banks and real estate.
Suspect of catering to drug dealers, arms
merchants and third world dictators
10. The fraud required a highly classified organizational structure, designed to
foster deception and avoid centralized regulatory review
BCCI’s annual auditing system was designed to be non-transparent, wi
complexity built in to avoid the detection of illegal accounting practices
Magnitude of the fraud:
£7 billion of undeclared debts
12. BCCI was a personal piggy bank for its Arab and Pakistani owners and its
favoured customers.
For its best customers, millions of dollars were advanced, often without
documentation and sometimes in violation of the bank's own lending limits.
When the loans went bad and losses mounted, the bank apparently hatched a
scheme to cover them up by making interest payments on loans with deposits
from other customers.
BCCI : Bank of Crooks & Criminals
13. And when capital was needed to absorb further losses, the bank
artificially pumped up its share price by lending money to existing
shareholders to buy more stock.
The proceeds from the stock would help balance the bank's books, but
actually the bank was merely taking depositor money and investing it in
the bank.
It was essentially a "stateless" bank that operated in the United States
and about 78 other countries, chartered in Luxembourg, run by
Pakistanis, owned by Arabs, headquartered in Britain and serviced by
outposts in the Cayman Islands.
14. How to hide losses?
Bought banks in USA
Laundered money from tax havens
Illegal share buying schemes
Complex ownership structure
Borrow from Arabs
Loan adjusting
16. In March 1991, the Bank of England asked Price
Waterhouse Cooper to carry out an inquiry. On June 24,
1991, using the code name "Sandstorm" for BCCI, Price
Waterhouse Cooper submitted the Sandstorm report
showing that BCCI had engaged in "extensive
fraud and manipulation".
18. The Sandstorm report, parts of which were leaked to The Sunday
Times, included details of how the Abu Nidal terrorist group had held
accounts at BCCI's Sloane Street branch in London.
Britain's internal security service, MI5, had signed up two sources
inside the branch to hand over copies of all
documents relating to Abu Nidal's accounts.
One source was the Syrian branch
manager, Ghassan Qassem, the second a
young British employee.
19. The Abu Nidal link man for the BCCI accounts was an Arab based in
Iraq named Samir Najmeddin.
Throughout the 80s, BCCI had set up millions of dollars worth of letters
of credit for Najmeddin, mostly for arms deals with Iraq.
Qassem later swore in an sworn statement that Najmeddin was often
accompanied by an American, whom Qassem subsequently identified
as the financier Marc Rich.
20. Rich was later accused in the U.S. for tax evasion and racketeering
in an apparently unrelated case, fled from country, and received a
controversial pardon from Bill Clinton on January 20, 2001.
Qassem also told reporters that he had once escorted Abu Nidal, who
was apparently using the name Shakir Farhan, around town to buy a
tie, without realizing who he was. This expose headed in 1991 to one
of the London Evening Standard's best-known front-page headlines:
"I Took Abu Nidal Shopping."
22. On July 5, 1991,the Bank of England closed down BCCI.
Around a million investors were affected.
In 1992, U.S Senators John Kerry and Hank Brown co-authored a report on
BCCI, which was delivered to the Committee on Foreign Relations.
The BCCI scandal was one of a number of crimes and disasters that
influenced thinking leading to the Public Interest Disclosure Act of 1998.
23. The British government also set up an independent inquiry, chaired
by Lord Justice Bingham, in 1992.
Its House of Commons Paper, Inquiry into the Supervision of the
BCCI, was published in October of that year.
Following the report, the bank's liquidators launched the Three
Rivers council vs. Bank of England case, on behalf of thousands of
BCCI creditors who are suing the Bank of England for its failure to
properly supervise the bank.
24. The BCCI creditors sought £850m in damages, claiming that the
Bank of England was guilty of wrong doing in public office.
However, in 2002, Robert and Ernest, former number three of Clear
stream, described as a "bank of banks" which practices "financial
clearing", discovered that the BCCI had continued to maintain its
activities after its official closure, with "microfiches" of Clear
stream's illegal unpublished account.
26. The critical role of senior management and key investors in
establishing an honest, open and practical bank culture.
The need for powerful executives and backers of institutions to be
controlled within a secure enterprise-wide corporate governance
structure, if the interests of other stakeholders, (such as deposit
holders), are to be safeguarded.
The need for independent and unified regulation and auditing of
complex financial combination.
27. The danger that attempts to preserve confidence in a bank, even
when well-intentioned, will lead to further cover-ups inside and
outside the bank.
The oldest lesson of all: the simplicity with which massive bad
loans and trading losses can be covered up in banks by extending
further credit, failing to record deposits, and juggling accounts.
