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.

17. CULTURAL DIVERSITY EXPLAINED BY
HOFESTEDE'S DIMENSIONS
1.Individualism versus collectivism. Japan scores high on
collectivism where Australia is among the most
individualistic cultures. For Japanese culture, this
means there is a partiality towards the common good. In
contrast, Australians expect to choose their own
affiliations and pursue their own goals.
2.Large versus small power distance. Power distance
refers to the extent to which a society accepts a
hierarchical order and how power within an
organisation is distributed. Japanese culture accepts a
large power distance where in Australia it is relatively
low.
18. CONTINUED…
3.Strong versus weak uncertainty avoidance. Japanese
culture ranks amongst the highest in this category. The
Japanese maintain rigid codes of belief and tend to
remain longer with their present employer. Conversely,
Australians maintain a more relaxed atmosphere in
both their professional and personal lives.
4. Masculinity versus femininity. Japan is considered by
Hofstede to be the most masculine culture. Masculinity
refers to a preference for 'achievement, heroism,
assertiveness and material success'. On the other hand,
Australia is considered to be more feminine with a
preference for relationships, modesty and quality of
life.
21. STRENGTHS OF JAPAN
• Japanese society (Zen): selflessness, continuous
improvement - the Japanese always strive for
perfection and they try to show improvement in
the areas where they are lacking.
• Technology - Japan is the technology capital of
the world. They have all the new innovations
before anyone else does. Now they just need to
figure out how to properly market these ideas
and distribute them globally.
• Economy - right now the economy in Japan is
very strong and the Japanese need to use this to
their advantage.
22. WEAKNESS OF JAPAN
• Non-verbal communication practices - in the Japanese culture
non-verbal communication is practiced on a regular basis.
When companies start trying to negotiate and practice business
in other countries and other cultures, communication tends to
be misinterpreted.
• Quickness - the Japanese culture tends to be relaxed and based
on relationship building. Other cultures are very quick with
everything including communication. Many companies fear
doing business with Japanese companies because sometimes it
creates more work than is necessary with other countries and
cultures.
• Education - many Japanese go to other countries for extended
education. Many of these individuals tend to stay in the country
in which they study for different opportunities that Japan
cannot offer them.
23. OPPORTUNITIES OF JAPAN
• Environmental Issues (recycling, energy saving, etc.)
• World's Second Largest National Market
• Increase of Women in Business - the Japanese are
starting to see an increase in women in management
positions. This could create an opportunity for new
ideas and more creative ways for the businesses to be
organized.
• Foreign Influences becoming more welcome - with an
increase in education outside of the country, some
individuals return to Japan with new insights to their
own culture.
24. THREATS OF JAPAN
• Globalization - since Japan is an island they
tend to be far away from everyone else. This
has created problems with many corporations
trying to go global.
• Small proportion of foreign investment - the
Japanese feel they have great products within
the country and do not always support foreign
investment opportunities. This practice has
deterred some companies from trying to enter
the Japanese market or from trying to create
joint ventures with Japanese companies.
25. STRENGTHS OF AUSTRALIA
•Strong Economy with per capita GDP on par with the four
dominant West European economies.
•Strong emphasis on reforms, low inflation, a housing market
bloom, growing ties with china have led to its 16 years of
expansion.
•The budget has been in surplus since 2002 due to strong
revenue growth. •Major exporter of agricultural products,
minerals, metals, and fossil fuels. •Excellent domestic and
international telephone services.
•“The strength of Australia’s economy has been highlighted in
recent years by its ability to withstand a number of internal
and external events, including a major drought, a housing
boom and the Asian financial and economic crises.”(About
Australia)
26. WEAKNESS OF AUSTRALIA
•“Socially permissible systems for information
exchange, vertically and horizontally
(professional cross-sectoral committees are a
step in the right direction on the government
level).” (SWOT Analysis)
•Enforcement of environmental and economic laws
and regulations.
27. OPPORTUNITIES OF AUSTRALIA
•Australia has a business-friendly regulatory environment.
“According to the World Bank, Australia is the fastest place in
the world in which to start a business, with regulatory
procedures taking just two days”. (About Australia)
•Has the fewest restrictions on product markets of all of its 30
member countries, the lowest level of public ownership of
business and the least restrictive impact of business regulation
on economic behaviour
•“Australia recently partially deregulated the banking sector,
removing many interest rate limits and allowing the entry of 16
new foreign banks, five of which were U.S. banks. Chase
Manhattan and Citibank are moving rapidly into the retail
banking sector and beginning to provide competition for what
was a rather entrenched banking system.
28. THREATS OF AUSTRALIA
• Drought, robust import demand, and a strong
currency have pushed the trade deficit up in
recent years, while infrastructure bottlenecks
and a tight labour market are constraining
growth in export volumes and stoking inflation.
• Australia's budget has been in surplus since
2002 due to strong revenue growth.
29. RECENT NEWS
• In 2006, Australia and Japan celebrated the 30th
anniversary of the signing of the Basic Treaty
of Friendship and Cooperation between
Australia and Japan 1976 (Japan).
• Military technology deal.
• Whaling issues.
• Kyoto protocol.
