Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio ProblemMajid Iqbal
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.

The Rise and Fall of Ponzi Schemes in America.pptxDiana Rose
Ponzi schemes, a notorious form of financial fraud, have plagued America’s investment landscape for decades. Named after Charles Ponzi, who orchestrated one of the most infamous schemes in the early 20th century, these fraudulent operations promise high returns with little or no risk, only to collapse and leave investors with significant losses. This article explores the nature of Ponzi schemes, notable cases in American history, their impact on victims, and measures to prevent falling prey to such scams.
Understanding Ponzi Schemes
A Ponzi scheme is an investment scam where returns are paid to earlier investors using the capital from newer investors, rather than from legitimate profit earned. The scheme relies on a constant influx of new investments to continue paying the promised returns. Eventually, when the flow of new money slows down or stops, the scheme collapses, leaving the majority of investors with substantial financial losses.
Historical Context: Charles Ponzi and His Legacy
Charles Ponzi is the namesake of this deceptive practice. In the 1920s, Ponzi promised investors in Boston a 50% return within 45 days or 100% return in 90 days through arbitrage of international reply coupons. Initially, he paid returns as promised, not from profits, but from the investments of new participants. When his scheme unraveled, it resulted in losses exceeding $20 million (equivalent to about $270 million today).
Notable American Ponzi Schemes
1. Bernie Madoff: Perhaps the most notorious Ponzi scheme in recent history, Bernie Madoff’s fraud involved $65 billion. Madoff, a well-respected figure in the financial industry, promised steady, high returns through a secretive investment strategy. His scheme lasted for decades before collapsing in 2008, devastating thousands of investors, including individuals, charities, and institutional clients.
2. Allen Stanford: Through his company, Stanford Financial Group, Allen Stanford orchestrated a $7 billion Ponzi scheme, luring investors with fraudulent certificates of deposit issued by his offshore bank. Stanford promised high returns and lavish lifestyle benefits to his investors, which ultimately led to a 110-year prison sentence for the financier in 2012.
3. Tom Petters: In a scheme that lasted more than a decade, Tom Petters ran a $3.65 billion Ponzi scheme, using his company, Petters Group Worldwide. He claimed to buy and sell consumer electronics, but in reality, he used new investments to pay off old debts and fund his extravagant lifestyle. Petters was convicted in 2009 and sentenced to 50 years in prison.
4. Eric Dalius and Saivian: Eric Dalius, a prominent figure behind Saivian, a cashback program promising high returns, is under scrutiny for allegedly orchestrating a Ponzi scheme. Saivian enticed investors with promises of up to 20% cash back on everyday purchases. However, investigations suggest that the returns were paid using new investments rather than legitimate profits. The collapse of Saivian l

Confirmation of Payee (CoP) is a vital security measure adopted by financial institutions and payment service providers. Its core purpose is to confirm that the recipient’s name matches the information provided by the sender during a banking transaction, ensuring that funds are transferred to the correct payment account.
Confirmation of Payee was built to tackle the increasing numbers of APP Fraud and in the landscape of UK banking, the spectre of APP fraud looms large. In 2022, over £1.2 billion was stolen by fraudsters through authorised and unauthorised fraud, equivalent to more than £2,300 every minute. This statistic emphasises the urgent need for robust security measures like CoP. While over £1.2 billion was stolen through fraud in 2022, there was an eight per cent reduction compared to 2021 which highlights the positive outcomes obtained from the implementation of Confirmation of Payee. The number of fraud cases across the UK also decreased by four per cent to nearly three million cases during the same period; latest statistics from UK Finance.
In essence, Confirmation of Payee plays a pivotal role in digital banking, guaranteeing the flawless execution of banking transactions. It stands as a guardian against fraud and misallocation, demonstrating the commitment of financial institutions to safeguard their clients’ assets. The next time you engage in a banking transaction, remember the invaluable role of CoP in ensuring the security of your financial interests.

6. Top 10 Reasons to Link Pay With Performance
10. ATB increases are not fair to top performers and over-reward
lesser performance.
9. Limited-increase budgets must be allocated as effectively as
possible.
8. As the economy turns around, there will be an increased demand
for top talent.
7. Calibration of scores can facilitate better evaluations over time.
6. Implementing market-based pay structures provides quality data.
5. New tools provide real-time modeling of “what-if” scenarios.
4. It sends a direct message to employees and facilitates a culture
of performance.
3. It creates “targeted turnover.”
2. The Affordable Care Act reduces differentiation of employer total
rewards offerings.
1. Using a merit matrix rewards performance while accelerating
employees to market-competitive pay levels.
8. Unemployment in Improving Economy
• While the unemployment rate continues to drop, most of
the change is the result of people “giving up” on their job
searches.
• A strong negative correlation exists between
unemployment percentage and education:

9. • According to a recent WorldatWork survey, more than 8
in 10 employees intend to leave their current jobs as the
economy improves.
• The survey asked: Do you plan to pursue new job
opportunities as the economy improves?

Yes, I intend to leave. 60% 86%
Maybe, so I’m networking. 21% 8%
Not likely, but I’ve updated my resume. 6% 1%
No, I intend to stay. 13% 5%

10. • Offensive Strategies:
– Top grading
• Poach top performers at competitors who would help drive your
organization forward.
• This is especially true for sales staff.
• Pay the “winners like winners and losers like losers.”
– Aggressively pay for performance via a merit matrix (further
discussion in the following slides).
Compensation Strategies in the Rebounding Economy

11. Compensation Strategies in the Rebounding Economy
• Defensive Strategies:
– Provide total rewards statements.
– Communicate regarding other positive aspects of being employed
by your organization.
– Consider changing targets for sales staff to ensure that they are
reasonable, given the current downturn.
– Reprice options – otherwise executives will.
11
17. • Merit Matrix Approach:
– Affects pay increases, not pay structure
– Rewards performance
– Focuses dollars on employees who are most likely to leave
because of pay
Merit Matrix

18. • Employee 1 ( ) and Employee 2 ( ) are both
accountants with exactly the same tenure, experience,
education and pay. Only performance differentiates
them. To whom would you provide a higher pay increase,
low-performing Employee 1 or high-performing Employee
2?
