Essay Title: What are the Impacts of Brexit on FTSE100 Index? Abstract This paper is aimed at studying the impacts of Brexit on the FTSE100 index. The research paper employed the use of data exploration techniques such as descriptive and inferential analysis to study the trend in the stock value of various constituents of the FTSE100 index. The primary source of data for this research study was the Yahoo financial data, which provided historical data on the stock value of the FSE100 index for the period between 2010 to 2017. The results from the research work revealed that the announcement of the Brexit referendum and the actual Brexit caused a structural break in FTSE100 hence leading to a significant decline in the stock value of FTSE100 index constituents.

This research paper is consistent with past research works that revealed a steep correlation between Brexit and the decline in the stock value of the FTSE100 index. Keywords: Brexit, FTSE100, descriptive statistics, inferential statistics, sterling pound.EU, the…
Strategy Composition Our top two global competitors in the office furniture industry are Steelcase Company and Herman Miller Inc. These two companies are the world’s leading suppliers of office furniture operating in the United States (US) and other parts of the world.

Shadow Banking in Third World Countries Shadow banking is a system that consists of lenders, brokers and other key financial players that fall outside the regulated banking system (Wullweber, 2019, pg 12). As opposed to the standard regulated banking, shadow banking does not have the usual risks and restrictions that face regulated banking. The institution does not accept traditional deposits, unlike the conventional banking system. As a result, it has escaped regulation successfully. According to Gennaioli, N. et al. 2013, The fact that shadow banking does not have control enable the players to take higher risks and therefore, in their operations. Third world countries consist of underdeveloped and developing countries. Consequently, this system of banking is needed because of its low-cost loans and services because of fewer regulations compared to traditional banking systems (Griffith-Jones, S. and Rodriguez, E. eds., 2016, Pg 1338). This paper aims to establish the development of shadow banking in developing and underdeveloped economies. References Gennaioli, N. et al., 2013. A model of shadow banking.

Forecasting Methods Sensitivity analysis is a study that allows allocation and division of mathematical model outputs. In the presence of uncertainty, sensitivity analysis tests the strength of results and further understanding of input and output data relationship. Various forecasting methods are discussed in this paper, clearly stating their advantages and disadvantages. Forecasting methods are used in giving results for sensitive analysis and regression. There are four techniques used including straight line, moving average, simple linear regression and multiple linear regressions. Depending on the nature of results data, each method is applied differently (Ren, Suganthan & Srikanth, 2014). For example, simple linear regression is used to compare one dependent variable with an independent one while moving average is used for repeated forecasts. This is one of a common limitation for these methods; they are specific to certain data. Weighted average has a greater advantage over the simple moving average in that it shows more accuracy in measuring recent price action for traders. For multiple regressions, the method allows one to determine the relative influence of predictor variables to a criterion value.…

American contemporary culture underwent a significant shift in idealism and perception. US citizens stopped focusing on the various aspects that made everyone different but instead focused on centrism and pluralism (Halliwell, 2008).
