FIS Research - High Performance Community BankingPaul McAdam
Historically, economies of scale have provided larger financial institutions with the ability to generate lower efficiency ratios and, often, higher returns on assets than community banks. Despite the disadvantages of their smaller size, some community banks outperform larger banks as well as their community bank peers during both good and bad times. This research brief focuses on the financial metrics of high-performing community banks to determine the characteristics that differentiate the elite performers from the rest of the pack.

Technology integration to language teaching Derya Bozdogan
This document discusses tools for integrating technology into language teaching.

Mobile Remote Deposit: Capturing the Early AdoptersPaul McAdam
Mobile Remote Deposit Capture (Mobile RDC) received widespread attention over the past year with high-profile launches from J.P. Morgan Chase, U.S. Bank, USAA and others. Despite attention-getting publicity surrounding mobile RDC launches, apps had only penetrated 3 percent of the mobile phone owner population as of February 2011. Mobile RDC is in the initial part of the early adoption stage of market penetration and will require continued push from the supply side to drive widespread consumer adoption.

Share nl report for the ministry of economic affairs on the innovation in the...shareNL
This report summarises research on barriers to investment in innovation and whether opportunities are currently feasible or not in the collaborative economy, and in the area of green growth. For this purpose, multiple roundtable meetings have been organised and interviews have been held with entrepreneurs, academics, legal experts, representatives of companies and government, who are active in the field of the collaborative economy. This summary sets outs the priority aspects of the collaborative economy which require action.
The collaborative economy contributes to green growth, but its potential can be utilised better. This can be achieved by looking at the opportunities and barriers, which now exist because the difference between producers and consumers has become more blurred, as well as changing trends of consumers renting or sharing products rather than owning products. As a result new risks and questions arise concerning liability, taxation, and competition. This report suggests a role for the government in four areas: (1) to ensure that current legislation is clear in how it applies to the collaborative economy; (2) to provide regulatory flexibility for experiments; (3) to monitor relevant developments and safeguard the public interest; and (4) to address the barriers that have been identified in this research.

This document discusses gaps and challenges in Ethiopia's enforcement framework for consumer protection. It begins by providing context on consumer protection and competition law. Effective enforcement strategies discussed include taking preventative and educational approaches rather than punitive ones, prioritizing areas of intervention based on risk assessment, and coordinating enforcement among relevant institutions. The document then assesses Ethiopia's enforcement framework, arguing there is a lack of decentralization of consumer protection authorities and failure to include major stakeholders. It also notes a lack of pre-intervention study, failure to prioritize high consumer risk areas, and failure to address anti-competitive practices. Overall, the document argues Ethiopia needs to empower and enable enforcement institutions to better promote competition and protect consumers through legal
Business environment legislation presentationnkosimsomi1
The document summarizes the Consumer Protection Act of 2008 in South Africa. It was established to protect consumers from unfair business practices and promote fair treatment in the marketplace. The Act gives consumers several rights, including the right to choose, privacy, fair dealings, and safety. It impacts businesses by requiring them to comply with consumer rights, disclose more information, and address complaints. While it increases business costs and risks, complying also allows businesses to resolve disputes fairly and build goodwill with customers. Overall, the CPA aims to balance consumer and business interests through responsible conduct from both parties.

All complaints are reviewed but the SC has discretion around whether to take action in a particular case.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
