IGI Global Empowering Women Through Microfinance in
Book SynopsisDespite the widespread promotion of microfinance as a key strategy for reducing poverty and fostering microenterprise development in developing countries, there is still a lack of understanding about how this concept can be used to empower women in these regions. The role played by formal and informal institutions in developing countries in facilitating or disabling women's empowerment and social mobility has not previously been adequately explored. Empowering Women Through Microfinance in Developing Countries addresses this knowledge gap by examining the influence of microfinance on women's empowerment in developing countries. It offers theoretical and empirical insights from industry experts, experienced researchers, and policymakers on the problems, processes, and prospects of using microfinance as a catalyst for women's empowerment in the developing world. The book covers a range of topics, including the impact of microfinance interventions on women's empowerment, financial inclusion, microfinance and female entrepreneurship, and poverty reduction among women, and small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) growth. The insights provided in this book will be a valuable resource for researchers, students, microfinance institutions, policymakers, state institutions, managers, non-governmental organizations, and financial institutions looking to expand their product portfolio and outreach. The book also provides policy directions and rethinking of practice in using microfinance as a strategy for eliminating barriers to women's empowerment in developing countries.

If you want to grow your profits, to be confident about your cashflow and ultimately to scale successfully, you need to become financially mature. And the bigger you become, the more this matters. But what does good financial management look like for your agency? You have a distinctive vision for your business, which means you need a distinctive financial plan and benchmarks to get you there. And that means making finance a core part of your business, not a support function. Stop comparing yourself to other businesses, start getting clear on what results you want and confident about how to get them. Paul Barnes has been helping creative agencies achieve this for years: discover his simple methodology and scorecard, and start your own journey to financial maturity

John Wiley & Sons Inc The Little Book of Sideways Markets
Book Synopsis"It's hard to talk clearly about investing and make sense to ordinary readers at the same time. Katsenelson gives a lucid explanation of today's markets with sound advice about how to make money while avoiding the traps that the market sets for exuberant bulls and frightened bears alike. " Thomas G.Trade Review“This is a book you can understand and have fun with no matter what level of experience you have. Even advanced investors have to refresh themselves in the basics once in awhile. Read it . . “ (Financial Tides and Seeking Alpha) “This book isn’t about market timing. It’s about winning in a flat market — the sort of knowledge that can make you a lot of money. In his book, Katsenelson reminds us that investing returns come in three ways: more earnings, more dividends, or a higher price-to-earnings ratio. I’m a dividend guy, so Katsenelson had me when he declared that ‘the importance of dividends quadruples in sideways markets, where they historically represent more than 90% of total return.’ Amen, brother! There are a lot of ‘little books’ out there, but The Little Book of Sideways Markets offers excellent advice, reads easily, and will help you sidestep a potentially frustrating market.”(Motley Fool) “Offers guidance on the discipline of selecting stocks, as well as wisdom on the challenges of knowing when to sell. Does a masterful job of taking a highly technical subject and explaining it in easily understood terms. His explanation of discounted cash flow analysis to determine the right price for buying an asset is the best, and the most entertaining.” (NAPFA Advisor) “Thoroughly enjoyable . . for the thoughtful and often entertaining way in which it is delivered. . . Katsenelson takes his reader step by step into the mind of the value investor by relating, in a fictional addendum to Fiddler on the Roof, the story of Tevye’s purchase of Golde, the cow. He also describes his own big-time gambling evening (he was willing to lose a maximum of $40) and that of a half-drunken, rowdy fellow blackjack player to stress the importance of process. He then moves on to the fundamental principles of active value investing. What differentiates this book from so many others on value investing is that it describes, sometimes through the use of case studies, the thinking of a value investor. Not just his models or his metrics but his assessments. Katsenelson is an empiricist who weighs facts, looks for contraindications, and makes decisions. He makes value investing come alive. This may be a little book, but it’s packed with insights for both novices and experienced investors. And it is a delight to read.” (Seeking Alpha) Table of ContentsForeword xi Acknowledgments xxii Introduction xxiii Chapter One Fasten Your Seat Belt 1 Chapter Two A Sideways View of the World 9 Chapter Three Don’t Shoot the Messenger 23 Chapter Four Tevye Was a Rich Man 41 Chapter Five What We Can Learn from Gamblers 59 Chapter Six Brought to You by the Letter “Q” (for Quality) 65 Chapter Seven Brought to You by the Letter “G” (for Growth) 87 Chapter Eight Brought to You by the Letter “V”(for Valuation) 105 Chapter Nine Add It Up 117 Chapter Ten Nip/Tuck 133 Chapter Eleven The Born-Again Value Investor 143 Chapter Twelve Applying Darwinism to the Sales Process 161 Chapter Thirteen You Are Not As Dumb—or Smart—As You Think 175 Chapter Fourteen On a Scavenger Hunt for Stocks 181 Chapter Fifteen Farewell, Blissful Ignorance 189 Chapter Sixteen Think Different 211 Chapter Seventeen I Could Be Wrong, but I Doubt It 223

John Wiley & Sons Inc Modern Asset Allocation for Wealth Management
Book SynopsisAn authoritative resource for the wealth management industry that bridges the gap between modern perspectives on asset allocation and practical implementation An advanced yet practical dive into the world of asset allocation, Modern Asset Allocation for Wealth Management provides the knowledge financial advisors and their robo-advisor counterparts need to reclaim ownership of the asset allocation component of their fiduciary responsibility. Wealth management practitioners are commonly taught the traditional mean-variance approach in CFA and similar curricula, a method with increasingly limited applicability given the evolution of investment products and our understanding of real-world client preferences. Additionally, financial advisors and researchers typically receive little to no training on how to implement a robust asset allocation framework, a conceptually simple yet practically very challenging task. This timely book offers professional wealth managers and researchers an up-to-dTable of ContentsPreface vii Acknowledgments xiii Chapter 1 Preliminaries 1 Expected Utility 2 Introduction 2 MPT is an Approximation 5 Higher Moment Motivation 8 Modernized Preference Motivation 13 A Modern Utility Function 15 Returns-Based EU Maximization 21 Estimation Error 23 Introduction 23 Minimizing Estimation Error 24 Reducing Sensitivity to Estimation Error 28 A Modern Definition of Asset Allocation 30 Chapter 2 The Client Risk Profile 33 Introduction 33 Measuring Preferences 34 Risk Aversion 34 Loss Aversion 39 Reflection 41 Lottery Question Sizing 43 Incorporating Goals 43 Preference Moderation via SLR 43 Discretionary Wealth 48 Comparison with Monte Carlo 51 Comparison with Glidepaths 52 Chapter 3 Asset Selection 55 Introduction 55 Moment Contributions 57 Overview 57 Calculation 59 Utility Contribution 62 Mimicking Portfolios 63 A New Asset Class Paradigm 66 Overview 66 A Review of Risk Premia 67 From Assets to Asset Classes 73 Chapter 4 Capital Market Assumptions 79 Introduction 79 Using History as Our Forecast 81 Background 81 Estimation Error and Sample Size 83 Stationarity: Does History Repeat? 89 Adjusting Forecasts 91 Pre-Tax Adjustments 91 Post-Tax Adjustments 93 Chapter 5 Portfolio Optimization 97 Introduction 97 Optimization Results 98 To MPT or Not to MPT? 103 Asset Allocation Sensitivity 105 Final Remarks 109 Bibliography 111 Index 113
