The Bank of England extended its bond-buying program to provide 50 billion pounds in support to banks struggling under heavy debt loads, lifting bond prices but causing the value of the pound to drop. In the US, home prices remained low despite housing agencies offering loans up to 125% of home values. One of these agencies, Fannie Mae, will require another $10 billion in federal support, raising concerns about whether government intervention can solve the ongoing financial crisis.

The Gathering - February 27, 2009
Financial Crisis Informative Speech
The deregulation of the banking industry in 1998, combined with loose monetary policy and risky subprime loans, led to a housing bubble that burst in 2008. This caused Lehman Brothers to declare bankruptcy after announcing major losses, which further destabilized the financial system and marked the official start of the Financial Crisis of 2008-2009.

US Sub Prime Crisis
This document discusses the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States. It defines subprime mortgages as loans given to borrowers with poor credit ratings. The crisis coincided with the 2007-2009 recession as home prices declined sharply, many subprime borrowers defaulted on their loans, and financial institutions incurred major losses. This led to effects like a decline in GDP, rising unemployment, a drop in real estate prices, and the bankruptcy of large banks. Government remedies included quantitative easing, credit easing, expanded deposit insurance, capital injections for banks, and programs to avoid home foreclosures.
Ex-Im bank memo 1
The document provides a memo to Congressman Luke Messer regarding the reauthorization of the Export-Import Bank. It summarizes the arguments against reauthorization, noting that the bank primarily benefits large corporations rather than small businesses as intended, puts taxpayers at risk, and creates market distortions. The memo recommends that Congressman Messer oppose reauthorization to avoid backlash from interest groups but protect taxpayers and small businesses in his district.
Blakeyovich Enterprises - Iron MBA Economic Analysis
The document provides an overview of the current economic conditions and implications for business following the financial crisis in late 2008. It summarizes recent bank failures and mergers, trends in the stock market and fiscal policies like the $700 billion bailout. It also discusses concerns around a self-reinforcing loop of bank failures, tight lending and falling consumer confidence. Recommendations are made to focus sales on schools and sell internationally to mitigate impacts on Blakleyovich Enterprises from the economic downturn.
Us Credit Crisis and Feds Response
The Federal Reserve took several steps to address the US credit crisis, including establishing new lending facilities to provide banks with liquidity and lower interest rates. The Term Auction Facility, Term Securities Lending Facility, Primary Dealer Credit Facility, and Commercial Paper Funding Facility allowed banks and dealers to borrow directly from the Fed. The Fed also lowered interest rate targets and expanded currency swaps with other central banks to ease global credit. However, the responses failed to prevent high inflation and a weaker dollar, and may have increased moral hazard risk.
financial crisis
The document provides background on the 2008 global financial crisis from the perspective of borrowers, lenders, and investors. It describes how low interest rates led many borrowers to take out subprime loans to purchase homes. When interest rates rose and housing prices fell, many borrowers defaulted on their loans. This caused wider economic impacts as financial institutions holding these loans faced losses and tightening credit markets. Government bailouts of major banks and insurers were needed to restore confidence and stability to the financial system.

Credit card debt is the third largest source of indebtedness in the US: Credit card debt management is the solution
According to the reports of the financial analysts, credit card debt is reportedly been the third largest source of household indebtedness only after the $14 trillion in the mortgage debt market and $1 trillion in the student loan debt market. Studies reveal that the average household owes a huge amount on credit cards but the average debt is gradually falling in the first quarter of 2012. Since the same time in 2010, the amount is down nearly by $2000. Does this show that the Americans are repaying their credit card debts? Or are they just walking away from their debt? Though there are so many professional debt relief options that you can take resort to when you fall in debt, most of them are choosing the debt management plan as it tends to help a person pay back debt and also boost his credit score at the same time.

What is debt management and how is this helping the economy?
With the rising debt burden in the US, an increasingly large number of people are trying to put an end to their debt worries by getting help from the professional options. If you too are waiting to be one among them, you may get help of the debt management firms. Here are the benefits that you may reap when you take help of the debt management firms.
The credit counselor assesses your finances: The credit counselor will initially assess your personal finances so that you don’t have to oscillate between getting professional help and helping yourself. He will look into your present financial state; calculate the total amount of debt that you owe and the total income that you earn in a month. He will check in order to know whether or not you can repay your debts on your own.
The counselor will help you with a budget: He will craft a frugal budget for you so that you can follow it throughout the month. Maintain a balance between your income and expenses so that your income is always more than your expenses. He will also teach you personal finance management techniques through which you can rein in your finances.
The counselor will enroll you in a DMP: When the counselor sees that you can’t repay your debts on your own, he will enroll you in a DMP through which you can repay your debts in easy and affordable monthly payments. The counselor will negotiate with your creditors in order to alter the repayment plan too.
The interest rates will be reduced: The interest rates on the credit cards are the biggest reason for the large number of defaults. When the credit counselor negotiates with your creditors, you can reap the benefits of lower interest rates and extended repayment term. You just have to make a single monthly payment to the credit counseling agency and this way you can repay your credit card debt.
International Human Resources
As an international HR manager of Lehman Brothers, two key challenges during the financial crisis are identified. First, the mass layoffs of workers without proper cause or compensation led to legal issues and negatively impacted the performance and morale of remaining employees. This was due to ineffective HR planning and an inability to identify the optimal workforce levels. Second, an overreliance on a single cost-cutting strategy of layoffs demonstrated that Lehman Brothers lacked strategic flexibility to adapt to changing market conditions. To address future crises, HR must conduct thorough internal and external analysis to develop multiple contingency strategies, ensure regulatory compliance, and maintain engaged talent during difficulties.

Dollar Droops
The US employment numbers were slightly worse than expected, causing equity markets to decline. The author notes the irony that India, with over 4 times the population, relies on US economic data. This imbalance is due to the large consumption and wealth in the US compared to India. In the long run, the financial crisis may change this global dependence on the US dollar and consumption as countries like China diversify their reserves, but changes will be gradual and the dollar could surge again if risk aversion increases. For now, the dollar continues to weaken, slipping to a new low for 2009.

Commodities Climb
Commodity prices have risen to highs for the year, with Brent crude oil reaching $74 per barrel and copper prices at a 10-month high, boosted by an increase in pending US home sales. As risk appetites have increased in global equities, the US dollar has fallen to its lowest point against other currencies since 2009. This has strengthened commodity currencies like the Canadian and Australian dollars. Gold and silver prices have also risen but remain below earlier yearly highs, with gold closing just under $970 per ounce and silver up over 3% to $14.60 per ounce. For Indian investors, higher oil prices remain a concern for India's recovery due to its large petroleum imports and declining exports potentially worsening its

What's a worker’s market? Job quality and labour market tightness
What's a worker’s market? Job quality and labour market tightnessLabour Market Information Council | Conseil de l’information sur le marché du travail
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.快速制作美国迈阿密大学牛津分校毕业证文凭证书英文原版一模一样

"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.

Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio Problem
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 Queen and Uncle Sam to the Rescue
- 1. The Queen and Uncle Sam to the Rescue By Mohit Satyanand 7 August 7, 2009 I have an early morning call for a play a group of us do for schools, so I'll keep this brief: - yesterday, the Bank of Englasnd surprised makrets by announcing an extension of its "Quantitative Easing" program, a facility by which it buys bonds directly from the market, hoping to lifting the pressure on banks burdened by their own stretched balance sheets. The scheme, worth 50 billion pounds, lifted bond prices, but drove the pound down. - in the US, home prices stay stubbornly down, despite the willingness of housing finance agencies to lend upto 125% of home prices. Remember, that credit on easy terms was one of the culprits of the current financial crisis, for which greedy lenders were blamed. Now that government agencies are offering over-generous terms, I guess this is benevolent. Be that as it may, news comes in that one of these agencies, Fannie Mae, is going to require another round of federal support, of, oh, only 10 odd billion dollars. I don't know where all this is going to end, but I doubt it's going to be one of those "Happily Ever After" endings.
