Volatility of commodity prices policy responses
Regulators should monitor the impact of financialization on commodity markets through:
1. Comparing spot commodity indices to open interest and positions in commodity futures to examine the feedback between physical and paper markets.
2. Comparing spot commodity indices to investments in commodity ETFs and ETNs to understand the impact of financial investments.
3. Analyzing the relationship between commodity price indices and other asset prices like stocks and oil to identify potential spillovers.
This will help regulators evaluate the need for measures like position limits to reduce excessive speculation and curb unintended volatility. International coordination is also important given global nature of commodity futures markets.

The balance of payments is a measurement of all international economic transactions between residents of a country and foreign residents over the course of a year. It is composed of the current account, which measures transactions with income or payment flows within one year like trade in goods and services, and the capital/financial account, which measures transactions of financial assets like foreign direct investment. A country will experience a balance of payments surplus if demand for its currency is high and a deficit if supply is high, affecting its exchange rate.
Multinational Finance Solutions
This document provides solutions to end-of-chapter questions and problems from the textbook "Multinational Finance" by Kirt C. Butler. It is organized by chapter and provides answers to conceptual questions about topics like foreign exchange risk, political risk, and cultural differences in international business. It also works through numerical problems involving calculations with foreign exchange rates, forward rates, and currency conversions. The solutions are intended to help students check their understanding of key concepts and practice applying quantitative techniques in multinational finance.

This document discusses the theoretical considerations of financial market integration, specifically regarding Arab countries. It begins by defining financial market integration as a situation with no barriers to capital mobility or trading foreign assets, such that identical securities have the same price across markets. Several schools of thought for measuring integration are described, primarily the law of one price. The document then reviews literature on defining and measuring integration. Benefits mentioned include risk diversification and efficient allocation of resources, while risks include volatility and capital flow reversals destabilizing some markets. The conclusion is that while integration can promote growth, very large financial systems may misallocate resources and have negative growth effects.

Here are the steps to solve the exercises:
1) 1 US dollar can buy 0.75 Canadian dollars. So for 1 US dollar you would receive 1/0.75 = 1.3333 Canadian dollars.
2) 1 US dollar can be exchanged for 105 Japanese yen or 0.80 euro.
To find the euro/yen rate, set the two expressions equal to each other:
0.80 euro = 105 yen
0.80 euro / 105 yen = 1 euro / X yen
X = 0.80 * 105 / 0.80 = 131.25 yen
So the euro/yen exchange rate is 1 euro = 131.25 yen.

This paper compares and contrasts the stock markets for countries of comparable size and development as and between the GCC and non-GCC countries. The paper implicitly observes what may be considered strengths and weakness as and between markets dominated by Islamic Finance principles and those that are more or less conventionally oriented.
Currency wars
Currency wars occur when countries deliberately devalue their currencies to gain a competitive advantage in international trade and stimulate their economies. While a weaker currency can boost exports and domestic growth, currency wars also carry risks like increased volatility, supply chain disruptions, and rising trade disputes between countries. Both floating and pegged currency regimes are affected, though countries with floating currencies may experience relatively better economic conditions. Overall, currency wars pose risks to global trade and investment from the resulting currency uncertainty and manipulation of exchange rates.
What is Currency War- A primer -30.04.16
A currency war refers to a situation where a number of nations seek to deliberately depreciate the value of their domestic currencies in order to stimulate their economies. In this presentation we discuss the basic aspects, features of currency war, currency devaluation. We also cover the impact of currency war of affluent nations on Indian economy

This chapter discusses globalization and multinational enterprises. It defines a multinational enterprise as a company with subsidiaries or affiliates in foreign countries. It also discusses theories of comparative advantage and how countries and firms specialize in areas where they have a relative production advantage. Market imperfections provide opportunities for multinational firms to exploit economies of scale, expertise, and financial strength across borders. Strategic motives for foreign direct investment include seeking new markets, resources, production efficiencies, and political stability.
SME development, constraints, credit risk & islamic banking solutions
This analytic paper examines the status of small and medium sized enterprises (SME) worldwide, provides theoretical information and explores issues regarding their development, constraints and credit risk. SME have been heralded worldwide as being the economic “engine” of economic development. Certainly, from an Islamic finance perspective, the development of SME represents a propitious opportunity, a vital step towards an epistemological response to criticism of Islamic finance and should play an indispensible role in forging a more robust Islamic capital market. Yet, SME face persistent identifiable obstacles to growth and development. This paper focuses on SME development, particularly as it relates to the so-called “credit gap” and the concomitant credit risk. The SME “credit gap” is pervasive worldwide; particularly so in emerging economies. Accordingly, this paper analyzes: the determinants and drivers of SME development; constraints on SME development; the SME “credit gap” and concomitant credit risk; and the role Islamic banking can play in meeting the challenge of SME development.

The document discusses the theoretical considerations of financial market integration in Arab countries. It begins by defining financial market integration and reviewing different approaches to measuring integration. It then examines factors that have hindered integration among Arab markets, including their limited economic size and the dominance of oil exports. Efforts by Arab countries toward integration are also reviewed, such as the Arab League and plans for projects like the Arab Gas Pipeline. The results indicate that integration among Arab financial markets remains low due to challenges like differing levels of economic development and a history of agreements not being fully implemented. More work is still needed to achieve real integration.

The economist guide to the financial markets
This document provides an overview of financial markets and their functions. Financial markets have existed since early societies traded agricultural goods, fulfilling the same basic purposes as modern markets. All financial markets, whether organized exchanges or informal markets, serve to set prices, value assets, allow arbitrage, raise capital for businesses and individuals, facilitate commercial transactions, enable investment, and help manage risks. In 2004, total annual capital raised in financial markets worldwide excluding domestic loans was $7 trillion, while the total value of financial instruments traded was $109 trillion. Cross-border financial transactions have also grown dramatically in recent decades.

This document summarizes a journal article that explores the International Monetary Fund's (IMF) influence on trade policies in low-income countries, particularly through programs like HIPC and PRGF. It begins by outlining the IMF's traditional focus on monetary and fiscal policy stability. It then discusses how the IMF's guidance has incorporated "Washington Consensus" priorities of trade liberalization. The document analyzes whether the IMF oversteps its mandate by influencing trade policies and critiques if pushing liberalization on low-income countries is appropriate given lack of consensus on benefits. It concludes by questioning if the IMF would better fulfill its core role and improve coherence across institutions by redirecting focus away from trade.

Derivative
1) Derivatives are financial instruments whose value is derived from an underlying asset such as a commodity, currency, bond or stock. They allow for the transfer of risk from those who wish to avoid it to those who are willing to accept it.
2) Common types of derivatives include forwards, futures, options and swaps. Forwards involve a customized contract between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a future date. Futures are similar to forwards but are exchange-traded and standardized.
3) Derivatives allow businesses and individuals to hedge against risk, providing protection from adverse price movements. They also enable speculation by those seeking profit from price changes in the underlying asset.

The Advisory_March2016
- The document discusses the increased market volatility seen so far in 2016 due to concerns over China's economic slowdown, falling oil prices, and uncertainty around the pace of Fed interest rate hikes.
- It argues that investors should focus on long-term goals and plans rather than trying to predict short-term market movements, which are driven by factors like high-frequency trading and central bank actions.
- While short-term volatility may remain high, fundamental factors like company earnings growth and credit quality will still determine long-term investment returns; investors should stick to strategies focused on identifying attractive long-term value.

Analysing the Dynamics of Change: Using longitudinal, panel and cross section...
This document introduces three types of studies - longitudinal, panel, and cross-sectional - that examine dynamic social, environmental, and technological change over time. It provides examples from the Future Agricultures Consortium's APRA Programme, which uses mixed-methods longitudinal and panel studies to analyze the differential impacts of agricultural commercialization on livelihoods in multiple African countries. Preliminary findings from APRA panel studies in Ghana, Nigeria, Tanzania, and Zimbabwe suggest agricultural commercialization may be reducing income poverty, though the results are early and limited.
Importance of the rice sector in ethiopia
The document discusses the importance of rice production in Ethiopia, current trends, and challenges. It notes that rice production has increased significantly but imports have increased even more, decreasing self-sufficiency. While demand is growing, productivity remains low compared to imports. Key challenges include low yields, lack of processing technologies, inadequate market development and human resources. Strengthening research and development partnerships is seen as critical to transforming Ethiopia's rice sector and reducing its reliance on imports to meet demand.
Rice Commercialization and Agrarian Change in the Fogera Plain of Ethiopia
This document summarizes research on agrarian changes in the Fogera plain of Ethiopia resulting from the commercialization of rice production. Key findings include:
1) The introduction of rice led to shifts in farming systems away from other cereals and livestock toward more commercially viable crops like rice, pulses and vegetables.
2) Increased rice commercialization contributed to land tenure changes including more land sharing, leasing and public land allocation for youth.
3) A rural labor market emerged to meet the labor demands of rice production.
4) Dynamic rural-urban linkages developed as rice processing industries expanded in nearby towns, creating jobs, markets and services.
5) Household consumption patterns changed, with rice replacing
Rice Commercialization and Labor Market Dynamism in Fogera Plain: Trends and ...
Rice production in Ethiopia's Fogera Plain region has increased commercialization and labor market growth. This study assessed the implications of the growing labor market on rice expansion. Key findings showed that rice has become labor-intensive, relying heavily on hired seasonal workers for harvesting and weeding. While the labor market and rice production currently depend on each other, the labor market is projected to decline in coming decades as youth migrate to cities. This would threaten rice commercialization unless labor-saving mechanization technologies are developed and adopted to replace human labor. The study concludes research and extension should focus on promoting rice mechanization solutions to sustain commercial rice production long-term.

The document summarizes findings from the Afrint and APRA programmes, which studied agricultural commercialization in sub-Saharan Africa. Afrint tracked changes in livelihoods of small farmers in six countries from 2002-2013, finding increases in production and commercialization. It also showed increasing inequality, with better-off farmers responding to markets. APRA's preliminary findings from 2017-18 involved over 4,000 households in four countries. It examines outcomes around commercialization, poverty, empowerment, employment, and food security. APRA also analyzes pathways and trajectories of commercialization.

APRA Tanzania Work Stream 1 Update
This study examines the dynamics of rice commercialization in Tanzania through a panel study approach. The objectives are to identify drivers of commercialization such as technology adoption, rural electrification, and migration. The study also analyzes the effects of different commercialization options on livelihood outcomes like poverty, food security, and women's empowerment. A stratified random sample of 559 households in eight villages is used. The results show that labor-saving technologies like tractors, herbicide/insecticide, and animal drawn tillage are widely adopted. Commercialization is occurring in response to demand, with area expansion driven by these technologies. Migration is also influencing commercialization patterns. Overall, commercialization options are improving livelihoods, though
APRA Nigeria Work Stream 1 Update
1) The survey found that the number and area of medium-scale farms in Nigeria is growing rapidly, with many smallholder farmers graduating to medium-scale farms.
2) Medium-scale farms provide services like renting equipment, purchasing inputs together, and providing extension services that benefit smallholder farms.
3) However, increased acquisition of farmland by medium-scale farms could potentially cause land scarcity issues that displace smallholders or increase land prices, while productivity differences between small and medium-scale farms require further analysis.
APRA Ghana WorkStream 1 Update
The document discusses three models of private sector-led oil palm commercialization in Southwestern Ghana: large-scale buyer model (LSBM), independent model, and mixed model. It analyzes the different types of farmers engaged in each model, the welfare implications for participants, and lessons that can be learned from these models compared to direct state interventions. The study uses surveys conducted in 2017 and 2019 and qualitative interviews to assess indicators like commercialization levels, income, and food security outcomes under the various oil palm commercialization arrangements.

The document discusses the Lamu Port South Sudan-Ethiopia Transport (LAPSSET) corridor project in Kenya. It notes that the project aims to open up northern Kenya through infrastructure and promote oil transport. However, it has also led to land struggles as communities demand formal land ownership and face enclosures. The rhetoric of "unused land" overlooks complex local land issues. Anticipation of the project has fueled land disputes and some groups have exploited tensions, with implications for political participation and even extremism in some areas like Lamu. Local responses have complicated simplified narratives and show the state's weakening authority over decentralized implementation.

Land Rights and Youth Employment in Uganda
This document discusses land rights and youth employment in Uganda. It notes that over 93% of land is under customary tenure and civil war has distorted land boundaries, causing conflicts. Youth are seriously affected as land grabbing and wrangles destroy farms. Increased population, unclear boundaries, privatization, and poor allocation due to elder deaths cause issues. As a result, youth interest in agriculture is diminishing, prolonging their dependency as they engage in crime, migration, betting, and socially unacceptable behaviors due to lack of skills and motivation from lack of land access. The document concludes land shortages have greatly impacted youth employment and recommends holistic, multi-level solutions are needed to resolve conflicts.

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.
