Описание: <em>Transforming Cities with Transit</em> explores the complex process of transit and land-use integration in rapidly growing cities in developing countries. As one of the most promising strategies for advancing environmental sustainability, economic competitiveness, and socially inclusive development in fast-growing cities, transit and land-use integration is increasingly being embraced by policy-makers at all levels of government. <br><br>This book focuses on identifying barriers to and opportunities for effective coordination of transport infrastructure and urban development. Global best-case practices of transit-oriented metropolises that have direct relevance to cities in developing countries are first introduced. Key institutional, regulatory, and financial constraints that hamper integration and opportunities to utilise transit to guide sustainable urban development are examined in selected cities in developing countries. For this, the book analyses their Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) systems and their impact on land development. The book formulates recommendations and implementation strategies to overcome barriers and take advantage of opportunities. <br><br>It asserts that unprecedented opportunities have and will continue to arise for the successful integration of transit and land development in much of the developing world. Many cities in developing countries currently exhibit the pre-requisites - e.g., rapid growth, rising real incomes, and increased motorisation and congestion levels - for BRT and railway investments to trigger meaningful land-use changes in economically and financially viable ways. Recommendations for creating more sustainable cities of the future range from macro-level strategies that influence land development and governance at the metropolitan scale to micro-level initiatives, like Transit Oriented Development (TOD), that can radically transform development patterns at the neighbourhood level. <br><br>The book will be of interest to a wide and diverse audience, including mayors, council members and other national and local policy makers, urban and transportation planners, transit-agency officials, and developers and staff of development financial institutions and others involved with TOD projects in rapidly growing and motorising cities of the developing world.

Описание:
Financial risk management is a topic of primary importance in financial markets. It is important to learn how to measure and control risk, how to be primed for the opportunity of compensative return, and how to avoid useless exposure.
This third edition of Understanding Financial Risk Management offers an updated version of its innovative approach to such issues. Angelo Corelli analyses the various types of financial risk that a financial institution now face in everyday operations—including market, interest rate, credit, liquidity, operational, currency, volatility, and enterprise risk. He deals with each type of risk using a rigorous mix of analytical and theoretical approaches; he gives introductory overviews to the most relevant statistical and mathematical tools; and he provides innovative analyses of all the major models available in the literature. This broad view of theory and the current state of the industry provides a friendly but serious starting point for those who encounter risk management for the first time, and it offers plenty of food for thought to more advanced readers.
For its unique mix of rigour and accessibility, this book is a must-read for finance professionals, and it is of keen interest to finance students and researchers.

Ethical finance involves financial practices that consider environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors affecting a borrower and/or its assets. This approach extends beyond traditional financial metrics, aiming to align investments and lending with principles promoting sustainability, social responsibility, and effective governance.
While previously confined to specialized finance providers and investors supporting environmentally or socially focused enterprises, this paradigm has shifted into the mainstream. According to the Global Ethical Finance Forum, the management of ethically driven assets worldwide has exceeded $27 trillion, indicating a growing recognition of the importance of integrating ESG factors and values into financial considerations.
Individual and professional investors increasingly acknowledge the pivotal role played by ESG variables in determining risk and reward. In the evolving landscape of investment and finance, ethical standards have become the norm, offering crucial safeguards for informed investment and finance decisions. Instances where funds and lenders are perceived to neglect appropriate ESG considerations in their decision-making processes now face heightened scrutiny and questioning.
The Emerald Handbook of Ethical Finance and Corporate Social Responsibility: A Framework for Sustainable Development presents a novel perspective on ESG considerations and the implementation of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) for sustainable development. This approach carries global and enduring implications.

Описание: Banks are frequently considered usurers. Is it possible to talk about ethics when you analyse banking activity? This book focuses on this question and starts with the history and the philosophy. Philosophers like Aristotle, Immanuel Kant and John Stuart Mill proposed different theories about the need for ethics in finance. If we accept Mill's thought, the production of wealth in society is driven by the personal pursuit of profit. But - unfortunately - this does not, on its own, ensure collective well-being. It must be guided by a superior mechanism which transforms it into wealth for all. This introduces the role of financial institutions, which often have to comply with legal obligations. The book focuses on the role that these institutions have in supporting the ‘ethical’ use of money. The author analyses a number of cases in banks and the financial industry and discusses topics like anti-money laundering, anti-usury, islamic finance, microcredit and bank rescue systems, including not only best practices but also examples of unethical financial management.
