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.

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.
Empowering the Unbanked: The Vital Role of NBFCs in Promoting Financial Inclu...Vighnesh Shashtri
In India, financial inclusion remains a critical challenge, with a significant portion of the population still unbanked. Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) have emerged as key players in bridging this gap by providing financial services to those often overlooked by traditional banking institutions. This article delves into how NBFCs are fostering financial inclusion and empowering the unbanked.
5. Licensed Agents

the office.
There are requirements for agent involvement in the offering of
insurance.

Vary by state.
•
Verify laws are being followed by asking for a copy of the license.
•
Verify that an agent signature is found
on insurance forms.
6. Licensed Agent Responsibilities by State

or the policy.
•
•
Closing of the transaction
By mail within 30 days of the closing.
•
A copy must be placed in the customer’s file.
•
Missing documents may indicate:
•
(1) a copy is not being given to the insured,
•
(2) a copy is not being mailed to the insured,
•
(3) the Seller is not maintaining his files properly, or
•
(4) the insurance premiums are being collected
but not remitted to the carrier.
8. General Rules
SCHEDULE OF INSURANCE
VS
CERTIFICATE OR POLICY
•
•
A Schedule of Insurance contain the basic
information related to the insurance such as
effective date, term of coverage, expiration date,
premium amount, and coverage amount. It may
or may not contain some of the additional policy
language. A Schedule when given to the insured
does not satisfy the requirement to provide a
certificate or policy within 30 days. It also does
not satisfy the requirement to retain a copy of the
certificate or policy in the customer’s file. When
you see only a Schedule in the customer’s file, you
must (1) confirm that an Individual Policy has been
issued and mailed to the insured and ask why
there is no copy in file, or (2) confirm that a
Certificate has been issued and mailed to the
insured and ask why there is no copy in file. Also
request a copy of the Group Policy.
•
•
A Group Policy (sometimes called a Master Policy or Control
Policy) multiple insured individuals are covered under one
policy. Certificates are issued to the individuals.
A Certificate of Insurance is issued only in connection with a
Group Policy (sometimes called Master Policy or Control Policy).
A Certificate will contain at least a portion of the terms of the
Group Policy and sometimes will contain all of the terms. The
Certificate should always refer to the Group Policy, and the
Seller should have a copy of the Group Policy. When you see a
certificate instead of a policy, you must obtain a copy of the
group policy from the Seller.
An Individual Policy stands alone. It is not group coverage, so
there is no certificate.
