"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.
In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.

STATE BANK OF PAKISTAN
1. State Bank Of Pakistan:
Introduction:
The state bank of Pakistan (SBP) is the central bank of Pakistan. While its
constitution, as originally lay down in the state bank of Pakistan order 1948,
remained basically unchanged until January 1, 1974, when the bank was
Nationalized, the scope of its functions was considerably enlarged. The state Bank
of Pakistan act 1956, with subsequent amendments, forms the basis of its
operations today. The headquarters are located in the financial capital of Pakistan,
Karachi with its second headquarters in the capital, Islamabad.
History:
Before independence on 14 August 1947, the reserve bank of India was the
central bank for what is now Pakistan.
On 30 December 1948 the British Government's Commission distributed the
Bank of India’s reserves between Pakistan and India 30 percent for Pakistan and
70 percent for India.
The losses incurred in the transition to independence were taken from Pakistan’s
share (a total of 230 million). In May, 1948, Mr. Jinnah took steps to
establish the SBP immediately. These were implemented in June 1948, and the
state bank of Pakistan commenced operation on July 1, 1948.
Under the state bank of Pakistan order 1948, the State Bank of Pakistan was
charged with the duty to "regulate the issue of bank notes and keeping of
reserves with a view to securing monetary stability in Pakistan and generally to
operate the currency and credit system of the country to its advantage".
A large section of the state bank's duties were widened when the State Bank of
Pakistan Act 1956 was introduced. It required the state bank to "regulate the
monetary and credit system of Pakistan and to foster its growth in the best
national interest with a view to securing monetary stability and fuller utilization
of the country’s productive resources".
In February 1994, the State Bank was given full autonomy, during the financial
sector reforms.
On January 21, 1997, this autonomy was further strengthened when the
government issued three amendment ordinances (which were approved by the
parliament in May 1997). Those included were the State Bank of Pakistan Act,
1956, banking company’s ordinance, 1962 and Banks Nationalization Act,
1974.

2. These changes gave full and exclusive authority to the state bank to regulate
the banking sector, to conduct an independent monetary policy and to set limit
on government borrowings from the State Bank of Pakistan.
Nationalization:
1974, government took charge of all financial institutions.
Duty is monitor this organization; however govt. Is not liable for monitoring
those results in de-nationalization that is major financial institution came
under the control of Pvt. Organization.

Including Issue of Notes.
Regulation and Supervision of the Financial System.

3. The Secondary Functions:
Functions like Management of Public Debt.

Maintaining Close Relationships with International Financial Institutions.
Some Other Important Functions of SBP:
State Bank of Pakistan Act 1956 requires the Bank to "regulate the monetary and
credit system of Pakistan and to foster its growth in the best national interest with
a view to securing monetary stability and fuller utilization of the country’s
productive resources".
1st and foremost requirement for monetary stability is ensuring price stability,
which, in State Bank of Pakistan, is achieved through stable Interest and Foreign
Exchange (Forex) rates.
Stability in Interest rates and Forex Markets is achieved through intervention in
money market and Forex market, while nature of intervention varies in both
markets.
To achieve desired interest rates, SBP uses two types of instruments, namely:
1. Direct Instruments:
2. Indirect Instruments:
1. Direct Instruments:
Direct instruments are typically directives given by the central bank to control the
quantity or price (interest rate) of money deposited with commercial banks (and
sometimes other financial institutions) and credit provided by them.
Examples of Direct Instruments are:
Interest Rate Controls
Credit Ceilings
Directed Lending
Statutory Liquidity Requirements
Page 3 of 11
From The Desk Of
Noman Khan
4. Pros and Cons of Direct Instruments:
Advantages:
They are perceived to be reliable, at least initially, in controlling credit
aggregates or both the distribution and the cost of credit.
They are attractive to government that wants to channelize credit to meet
specific objectives.
They may constitute the most effective or practicable approach in
circumstances of underdeveloped financial markets or where the central bank
has inadequate techniques of indirect monetary control.
Disadvantages:
Bank-by-bank controls hold back competition in financial markets which
could benefit both borrowers and depositors.
Selective credit controls-credit controls on some banks but not on favored
ones, distort markets and impose a cost on society.
Direct controls encourage disintermediation into non-controlled markets or
abroad. So, overtime, they become less effective as lenders and savers
search for ways to circumvent them.
Reserve Requirements:
Reserve requirements are the percentage of commercial banks’ liabilities (or
some sub-set thereof) which they are required to hold as reserves at the central
bank.
Cash Reserve Requirement (CRR):
Under this requirement, banks are required to keep a weekly average balance of
7% of their total demand liabilities with the SBP, subject to daily minimum
balance of 6% of total demand liabilities.
Statutory Liquidity Ratio:
Commercial banks are required to keep some fraction of their assets in the form
of cash, Treasury Bills (T-Bills) or other approved securities. This fraction is
called Statutory Liquidity Ratio.

5. 2. Indirect Instruments:
SBP uses targeting monetary aggregates for its monetary management
function, So Indirect instruments are used for controlling price or volume of the
supply of its own liabilities.
Examples of Indirect instruments are
1. T-Bill Auctions:
Treasury bills are sold through auction system
The cut off yield is determined by the Auction Committee, keeping in view
monetary targets, prevailing economic and financial conditions and
expected market response. The Six months’ T-bill is considered the most
important benchmark by the money market and is considered to be the
signaling tool of SBP for interest rate movements.
T-Bills are issued in 3, 6 and 12 months’ tenors.
Pakistan Investment Bond (PIB) Auction:
PIB are issued in tenors of 3, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 years in auctions,
according to the quarterly targets given by MOF.
PIBs are sold to meet the GOP long term requirements and to provide
benchmark rates to the Capital Market Transactions.
15 days prior to the auction, targets are announced on Reuters and
sealed bids are invited.
The 15 days period, i.e. from the day of announcement to the auction
day, is called short selling period.
Auction committee decides the cut-off yields.
2. Open Market Operations (OMOs):
Using computerized reporting system SBP monitors the daily liquidity
position of the market and on the basis of those reports SBP either injects
money to the market by lending against collateral through reverse repo
transaction or by an outright purchasing, or mops-up money from the
market by selling securities or by conducting repo transaction.

Noman Khan
6. OMOs are conducted on as and when market desires. Is issued through
Reuters and bids are received through fax. Only banks are allowed to
participate in OMOs and T-Bill auctions.
3. Discounting Facility (3-Day Repo):
In Pakistan, SBP has extended a 3-day Repo facility to schedule and
investment banks. This is an overnight lending facility provided to banks,
through which SBP provides cash accommodation at a penal rate
(currently 10 %) to any needy bank by undertaking a reverse repo
transaction with it.
Cash accommodation is normally for overnight; however transaction
period can be lengthened to 3-days or more to cover occasional long
week-ends.
SBP also uses changes in discount rate primarily as a way of signaling a
change in monetary policy.
4. Exchange Rate Management:
In Pakistan, since 2000, free float regime is in place i.e. Exchange
Rate is determined on supply/demand position of the market.
Factors requiring Ex. Rate Management:
Appreciation / depreciation of rupee vs.US. $ in interbank market
Heavy Fluctuation in Forex market in interbank
Market sentiments
Heavy payment (Commercial and government)
Unforeseen events
Factors Affecting Exchange Rate:
Trade Activities (Imports & Exports)
Foreign Investment (FDI)
Home Remittances
Market Saturation

BANKING SERVICES CORPORATION (BSC):
Banking Services Corporation (BSC) set up in January 2002, is the subsidiary of
the state bank of Pakistan and is entrusted with the task of currency management
and operational and administrative oversight of foreign exchange departments,
export and other finance, management of government accounts and operational
work related to government certificates. With the changing environment of banking
sector, BSC has undergone significant change. On one hand BSC has had to
relinquish certain functions, it performed at the time when both interest and credit
and foreign exchange was rigorously regulated. On the other hand, it has to
reposition itself to the deregulated environment (while continuing to perform some
old functions such as related to export finance scheme) and be equipped to deal
with a transformed central bank and banking system. The challenges posed by
these changing requirements have been phenomenal but BSC has been steadily
shifting its goals and objectives to align it with the new demands. Going forward,
SBP is now working closely with BSC to develop a strategy for its further
transformation to assign a more relevant mission to it in line with the withdrawal of
some of its old functions, consolidate the organization, fully automate its services
and introduce a new culture of change management along with better enforcement
of the performance management systems. Developing adequate capacity and
managerial skills along with better internal controls will be critical to achieve the
anticipated transformation.
