Ricardo Darin`s Movie The year 2001 was a tough year for most Argentinians as the country experienced a massive financial depression that leftover seventy percent of the population reeling in deep poverty. The crisis also saw great trepidation that occur in November that year, which caused a majority of individuals to empty their bank accounts at the same rate they filled them. Such actions saw the Argentinian government freeze all bank accounts in the country to help mitigate the bank panic that had gripped the country. However, it took eighteen years for Argentine filmmaker Sebastian Borensztein to adopt the crisis story and turn it into a captivating and crowd-pleasing comedy called ‘Heroic Losers.’ The film finds humor in Argentina`s synonymous financial crises, which was characterized by massive misery and fear. In Latin America, there are many incredible stories and film ‘Heroic Losers’ brilliantly tells the story of how individuals struggle to make their dreams come true. It tells a story of how Latin Americans can preserve even at the time of profound adversity and conflict and rise to become united…

Outline details One student asked about the details for the outline, and I thought some others might have similar questions. So I am answering here: Your outline should show how you plan to develop your paper. “For full credit, I am looking for specificity of research (1), research question and importance of research question (1), backgrounds (1), and methods for moving forward to pursue the question (1).” I say “specificity” because sometimes I receive assignments that have the vaguest of short phrases in the outline subtopics and details. Background means providing contexts for the topic and question – historical, political, philosophical. Methods – in your case, your research will be based on literature and documents you find to provide details that address your question. I have attached a sample outline to this announcement (the formatting isn’t perfect – the auto-formatting was just not working for me! I care less about that than being able to see that you are working from a logical course of reasoning with specific details)     SAMPLE :     Your outline should show how…

Finance, Accounting, and Banking Financial information and ratios are critical to any investor.  The different ratios, together with the business information, may give a clear picture of the actual position of the company and where the company may be in a given number of years.  Among the different ratios, the profit margin ratios, inventory turnover, and the debts to total assets ratios as the three ratios are most important in determining the preferred investment. The average collection period, quick ratio, and receivable turnover, on the other hand, are the least important in determining the preferred type of investment. The profit margin ratio is essential since it gives any investor vital information on the profit that a company gains from sales. Despite a large number of sales, the ratio aids one determining the actual profit, which investors must be keen on before investing. Inventory turnover importance in investments is the fact that it gives information on the number of times that a company has sold and replaced its inventory (Rusdiyanto et al., 2019). Demand is key to any viable company’s future.…

Deutsche Bank Fall The case study presents the challenges faced by Deutsche Bank in providing the correct information from their financial results. All of these factors had linked to management, organization and technology that helped to the issue. The information systems in the bank have been obsolete, preventing them from analyzing complex financial data to provide their services. Furthermore, the company underwent several fusions and acquisitions, which stopped management from making the necessary technical changes to integrate its information systems. This is because the requisite effort and coordination were too high, leading inevitably to the convergence of many incompatible technologies. Ultimately, Deutsche bank lacked an actively organized corporate stability and disaster management and other necessary supervisory processes in place. Because of this, bank leaders were unable to properly cope with the challenges they faced. Appropriate technology, senior management support and proper planning were the main factors that contributed to the issue. Deutsche Bank informational technology was crucial to help in processing data for the variety of financial services offered. Any of which included the management of a wide range of…

Credit Risk and Banking Regulation Introduction Credit risk is a liability default that results as the borrower fails to make the due payments (Livne et al., 2018). Banking regulation, on the other hand, is a kind of control by the government which places banks to some specific requirements, limits, and procedures meant to ensure transparency in the market among banking entities and other organizations which operate a business, among many others. Credit modeling is essential for financial institutions as it helps them improve their businesses and also improve customer service (Nolde, 2017). The banks are also able to manage the risks of default payments because suppose banks fail to plan for this, then they may be subjected to a big pool of credit exposures. And banks are capable of determining the background of the borrower seeking for the loan (Cimon, 2019). This paper entails looking at the elements of the Basel regulatory framework, the items to be considered during its implementation. Also, focus on some regional differences during its execution i.e., between non-EU territories and EU territories. The reforms introduced…

Patient’s lifestyle Dear Jillian I find your post very insightful. At the same time, I think that some of your assertions are not entirely true. For example, you have indicated that you would recommend antibiotics for the urinary tract infections suffered by the patient in question as a result of his benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). From the case study, the symptoms associated with BPH are affecting the patient’s quality of life, as evidenced in the way he is forced to keep waking up several times during the night to urinate. The symptoms suffered by the patient in question demonstrate that his BPH has reached the acute stage. According to Foo (2017), acute BPH entails recurrent urinary tract infections and bothersome symptoms, such as chronic or acute retention of urine. In your treatment plan for the patient, you have recommended only antibiotics. However, a patient with BPH may need to be presented with the option of surgery (Foo, 2017). Besides, the specific drugs you recommend for the management of complications or symptoms associated with BPH should be determined by the results…

The hair Hair plays a more significant role in portraying the image people see. Hair has a sense of image, it has been recognised as a tool of political statement. Many black women struggle with the issue of hair appearance;hence it is considered as one of their weakness in politics.There is a need for all black Americans to accept the fact that as much as they are different, they have the same rights as the other races. Taking themselves will be the first step for them being winners in politics.If black women want to win in politics, then they should be confident with their hair and skin colour. Through accepting the image of their hair,being confident, and being courageous to face criticism, black women will show the world a positive political statement. Here is the importance of accepting the image of their hair, “Though today the Afro has a less political meaning, in the late 1960s it was associated with both a movement and a black woman. The movement was black power…” (Banks 15). It shows how the style of…

Policy Brief on effects of investment to the governor and staff of the Bank of Canada Introduction In order to stir or slow down economic growth, the Bank of Canada manipulates the interest rates, by either increasing or lowering it, therefore, curtailing investment or encouraging investment in the process. However, there have been growing debate whether interest rates manipulation by the Bank of Canada affects investment in the country. According to an analysis by the Economist, although interest rates movements play some role in the investment of firms in the economy, factors such as profitability and value of shares play a much bigger role than interest rates[1]. Therefore, government measures such as tax rates and regulation affect investment of firms more than interest rates due to their direct impact on the firm’s profitability and value of shares. This policy brief will provide a comprehensive analysis of the effects of investment to the governor and staff of the Bank of Canada by focusing on the effects of demand shocks and the level of monetary policy aggressiveness. Monetary Policy Implications Short-term output…
