...government to develop and deploy advanced network applications and technologies, accelerating the creation of tomorrow's Internet.” (https://www.wpi.edu/.../Internet2/about.html) Over the years and as the Internet gained popularity, universities were the first organizations to recognize the limitations of bandwidth as it relates to data transfer rates and the need to share information and collaborate with other research institutes, universities, and colleagues. The need to support high performance applications and share information lead to the creation of the vBNS or very-high-performance Backbone Network Service in 1995 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet2). With a consortium of various investors and partnerships including the National Science Foundation, MCI, Qwest, Level3, and 30+ universities, Internet2 was formed. Through this consortium “Internet2 provides the U.S. research and education community with a network that satisfies their bandwidth-intensive requirements. The network itself is a dynamic, robust and cost-effective hybrid optical and packet network. It furnishes a 100 Gbit/s network backbone to more than 210 U.S. educational institutions, 70 corporations and 45 non-profit and government agencies.” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet2) Their goals include creating and maintaining a leading-edge network, exploiting broadband capabilities through new-generation applications, and new network services for all levels of educational use, with hopes to...

...Name: - Kevin Binu Ninan Madonna ID: - 234879 Date: - 20/12/2014 Subject: - HIS 1010 Turkey’s most important domestic and international challenges today Turkey's fast late development accompanies reactions that have abandoned its economy defenseless. One worry is swelling, which was 10.4% in March—well over the national bank's target and the expansion rates of a large portion of Turkey's developing business peers. A greater concern is Turkey's becoming reliance on remote money to fuel its economy: its present record shortage arrived at the midpoint of 10% of GDP a year ago. Turkey's deficiency measured in dollars is second just to America's. Additional stressing still is that a great part of the remote capital that funds Turkey's present record shortfall is of the capricious sort (streams into banks or buys of stocks or securities), which can leave again rapidly. Particular set of challenges are: 1. The lack of a competitive edge Turkey's intensity - its capacity to contend in a worldwide commercial center - is hampered by high expenses and little gainfulness. Toward some degree this has been aided by coin devaluation, which has brought down expenses, however the hidden issues of disadvantage, a need to keep on moving further up the worth included chain, and an oppressive administrative environment remain. 2. A persistent current account deficit Connected to this is Turkey's tireless current record deficiency. In 2013, at 7.9 percent it was the most noteworthy...

...Excerpt from FS Series #11 – innovations in financial services delivery: branchless banking C3. Case 3: Eko India Financial Services Private, Ltd. C3a. Background & Environment India has 80,000 bank branches, 110,000 cooperatives (one in every five villages), and 150,000 post offices. It is estimated that each branch serves about 15,000 people in urban areas and 32,000 people in rural areas (World Bank, 2009). Consequently, less than 60 percent of the adult population has a bank account and less than 14 percent has a loan with a bank. Microfinance services tend to be concentrated in southern states (e.g., Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka). In 2009, the Self-Help Group-Bank Linkage Program[1] covered 45.2 million households. Non-bank finance companies and NGOs — both MFIs — now reach 22.6 million clients, of whom 17.9 million are active borrowers (Sa Dhan, 2009). In January 2006, the Reserve Bank of India issued new guidelines (Reserve Bank of India/2005-06/288) allowing banks to employ business facilitators and BCs to promote financial inclusion and improve outreach. The facilitators would primarily be involved in processing and opening accounts. In addition to facilitator functions, BCs should mobilize deposits and disburse credit on behalf of the bank. C3b. The Eko Business Model Eko India Financial Services Private Ltd. is a start-up company established in mid-2007 with the goal of bringing financial inclusion to the financially underserved middle- and low-income...

...National Westminster Bank (St James Square Branch) ------------------------------------------------- 1. It was observed that the present scenario in the account opening has encountered delays which resulted to the negative feedback of the new customers who wish to open an account at Westminster Bank. The causes of the delay are the procedures which are confusing to the customers. Enumerated below are the delays encountered by new customers: * Customers fall in line at the Cashier Section * This process caused a long queue of customers that wants to open an account instead of going straight to the enquiry section that handles account opening * Cashier refers the customer to the enquiry section * Without any signpost to guide the customers, cashiers serves as a guide to direct clients to the enquiry section. Thus this contributes the delays of the procedure * Enquiry Section refers the customer to Records section * Another process that contributes to the delay since it does not commence the actual opening of the account. * Records section follows a long checklist before account opening * This process seem helpful in curbing defaulters however, having a long list of checklist may seem a little awkward in a sense that the bank do not trust the new customer. Moreover, it took an hour to finish the checklist consequently causes a delay. * Delivery of Print Cheque Book, etc * This process wherein the delivery...

In 2002, Switzerland was asked to join the European Union, but immediately declined the invitation. In fact, Switzerland is so great and their government thinks so highly of itself, that they believe that there is no place for them in the European Union. Switzerland ranks high in several metrics of national performance. According to Credit Suisee, Switzerland has the highest nominal wealth per adult in the world and the eighth highest per capita gross domestic product. Swiss citizens also have the highest life expectancy in the world and the country spends the most money in the world on healthcare. Zürich and Geneva, two major cities in Switzerland, have both been ranked among the top cities in the world with the highest quality of life. Established on August 1, 1291, Switzerland has a current population of 8 million. The country is known for being neutral and avoiding warfare; they have not been involved in a war since 1815 and did not join the United Nations until 2002. Switzerland is frequently involved with peace-building around the world; in fact, the Red Cross came from Switzerland.
