Environomics

How the Global Economy is Going Green

This book explores the&nbsp;application of theories of strategy and international trade to the global banking industry, covering both commercial and investment banks. Chapters&nbsp;incorporate analyses from the perspective of banks and regulators in the post-financial crisis period. The author traces the history of international financial institutions, and also looks to the development of bank structure over time to the present day. The book adopts a&nbsp;multifaceted&nbsp;view of the international&nbsp;banking industry, beginning with theories of strategy and internationalism, and finishing with current and&nbsp;practical&nbsp;issues faced within the transnational banking community.

Cash Cow

The first biography of one of the most influential and innovative figures in the history of American finance who revolutionized Wall Street and whose story reads like a real-life Great Gatsby J.P. Morgan. John D. Rockefeller. Charles E. Mitchell. These are some of the most prominent icons of wealth and influence during the Roaring Twenties. Yet the one figure who has strangely escaped notice all these years is an enigmatic banker by the name of Clarence Dillon.&nbsp;In the dazzling 1920s,&nbsp;as he rose in wealth and influence,&nbsp;Dillon became one of the original behind-the-scenes players in Hollywood, and his contact list included everyone from Thomas Edison to Charlie Chaplin and Joseph P. Kennedy to FDR. Like many great figures in history, Dillon’s personality was complex and contradictory: he could be utterly ruthless and cold-blooded, yet he was also sophisticated and elegant.&nbsp;This immensely influential man left a lasting mark on the history of finance in America. Yet, strangely, he&nbsp;eluded the close attention of biographers and historians—until now. &gt;<ul><li> Created modern bankruptcy law</li><li> Pioneered leveraged buyouts</li><li> Invented junk bonds</li><li> Engineered some of the biggest mergers and acquisitions ever seen</li> This first-ever inside look at&nbsp;Dillon and his life will fill a void in how we view the wild excesses of the Roaring Twenties, and how we understand the increasingly complex nexus between Wall Street and political power in our own time.&nbsp;The Baron of Wall Street&nbsp;is a vivid, novelistic account of Wall Street’s most formative years and its transformation through one&nbsp;dynamic and influential player in the financial world, highlighting his&nbsp;significant role in shaping US foreign policy today.

Quantitative Methods In Risk Analysis: A Practitioner's Guide

One of Barack Obama's 10 Favorite Books of the Year One of the New Yorker's Best Books of the Year Finalist for the Financial Times Best Book of the Year A vivid account of the past, present, and future of economic growth, showing how and why we must continue to pursue it while responding to the challenges it creates. Over the past two centuries, economic growth has freed billions from the struggle for subsistence. Yet prosperity has come at a price: environmental destruction, desolation of local cultures, the emergence of vast inequalities. Many respond that now is the time to shrink our economic footprint. But Daniel Susskind argues that such "degrowth" would be folly. Instead, we must keep growth but redirect it, making it better reflect our values. Growth: A History and a Reckoning shows how policymaking in the second half of the twentieth century came to revolve around a single-minded quest for greater GDP. The growth obsession has been met with the assertion that "we cannot have infinite growth on a finite planet." Susskind shows, though, that growth is a product not of resource exploitation but of new ideas. In that sense, growth really can be infinite. Still, he says, critics are right to insist that we can no longer focus on upsides alone. We must confront tradeoffs: societies will have to deliberately pursue less growth for the sake of other goals. These will be moral decisions, not simply economic ones, demanding the engagement not just of politicians and experts but of all citizens.

Raffles Family Wealth And Legacy Series

This book is the successor to Family Legacy and Leadership, a highly acclaimed wealth management book. Like its predecessor, this book looks at the essential challenges and practical approaches legacy families and their leaders can take to ensure that all aspects of their greater family enterprise -- family, business, philanthropy and other initiatives -- work well now and for long into the future.The book begins with an understanding that true family wealth includes, but also goes well beyond, financial assets. It discusses in detail topics such as family unity, harmony and security, a clear statement of purpose, vision and values, effective family governance, leadership and succession, and full consideration of the challenges and opportunities for the journey across different generations, between branches and for individual family members. Real world examples and practical approaches are set out for the reader's review and potential application. Focusing on both human and commercial aspects of legacy families, the book aims to provide guidance and proven approaches to the non-commercial aspects of wealthy families and their potential long-term success, reflecting an understanding that the families that are most likely to prosper long into the future address both the commercial and non-commercial aspects of family and family sustainability in equal measure.Drawing from many decades working with leading families around the world who have understood and mastered many of the most important challenges families face today, the two authors bring their collective expertise and experience to all families and their leaders who aspire to create the best possible future for their own families in these challenging times.
