Hungary

This Selected Issues paper describes and discusses potential implications of recent changes in Hungary’s public debt strategy. Special attention is paid to the motivation for, and recent experiences with, the “Hungarian Government Security Plus Scheme” (MÁP+) for physical persons, introduced in June 2019. One of the main benefits of retail bonds is that they usually are perceived as more stable funding. However, it is argued that MÁP+ should be continuously monitored to ensure its objectives are achieved in the most cost-efficient manner and to avoid unintended distortions. The paper also focuses on specific public debt management policies in Hungary and it briefly discusses experien...

The Anti-Bubbles

The Anti-Bubbles is a contrarian framework that challenges the status quo and complacency of Global Markets towards the false belief/misconception that central banks and governments are infallible and in full control. A forward-looking analysis of the opportunities, risks, and unintended consequences associated with testing the limits of monetary policy, testing the limits of credit markets, and testing the limits of fiat currencies. This book presents both sides of the story, including Larry Summer’s “prudent imprudence for fiscal expansion”, George Soros’ “reflexivity theory applied to monetary policy”, Mohamed El-Erian ́s “T-juction and diplomatic neutrality”, along the “Lehman Squared” and “Gold ́s Perfect Storm” investment theses, and coins innovative ideas such as “anti-bubbles”, “the acronyms”, or “monetary supercycle”, which join a series of innovative concepts such as “The Flattening of the Energy World”, “The Energy Broadband”, or “The Battle for Supply”, from Diego ́s first book.

Designing Learning and Development for Return on Investment

Learning practitioners have, for too long, been struggling to shift the perception of learning and development from a function that is a cost to the organization, to that of a function that is central to delivering value-added activities for the organization. The ability to deliver a return on investment is not about investing in good evaluation mechanisms, although this is important. It is imperative that the learning practitioner owns the numbers and works with financial metrics in order to bid for adequate resources and support the organization’s strategic ambitions. This book offers a brief overview of both a theoretical and a practical framework. The theoretical underpinning provides an examination of how the theories and research about human and group dynamic processes and self-renewal can be utilized in intervention design. The emphasis is on the “self-renewal” ability of the individual and the facilitation of the movement of groups to improve the health and effectiveness of organizations in a sustainable way.

Applied International Finance I

This volume is part of a three-volume set designed for use in a course in applied international corporate finance for managers and executives. Instead of the “encyclopedic” approach, the volumes focus on main issues of interest to managers who deal with overseas operations. This volume’s issue is how uncertain foreign exchange (FX) rate changes affect a firm’s ongoing cash flows and equity value, and what can be done about this risk. Numerous examples of real-world companies are used. The volume contains a hypothetical case that aims to tie the material together. The case company has overseas operations and is faced with ongoing FX exposure in corporate revenues. The decision maker e...

Enterprise Risk Management in a Nutshell

Risk management is an often-used phrase that is rarely fully embedded within the business process and procedures of firms. This book looks at the challenges faced in implementing a risk management framework as well as the key elements of such a framework. It is designed for the business professional that is not an expert in risk management and addresses all of the major risks that are likely to be faced in practice, considering the risk mitigation and measurement techniques that are most likely to be relevant. This is an intermediate book and accordingly does not focus on the mathematical elements but rather provides a readable entry text for anyone seeking information on this important subject.
