...Business Process Outsourcing Introduction Business process outsourcing (BPO) is a subset of outsourcing that involves the contracting of the operations and responsibilities of specific business functions (or processes) to a third-party service provider. Originally, this was associated with manufacturing firms, such as Coca Cola that outsourced large segments of its supply chain. BPO is typically categorized into back office outsourcing - which includes internal business functions such as human resources or finance and accounting, and front office outsourcing - which includes customer-related services such as contact center services. BPO that is contracted outside a company's country is called offshore outsourcing. BPO that is contracted to a company's neighboring (or nearby) country is called near shore outsourcing. Often the business processes are information technology-based, and are referred to as ITES-BPO, where ITES stands for Information Technology Enabled Service. Knowledge process outsourcing (KPO) and legal process outsourcing (LPO) are some of the sub-segments of business process outsourcing industry. In 2010, the Philippines surpassed India as the largest business process outsourcing industry in the world. After growing 20 per cent in 2012, the BPO industry of the Philippines is estimated to gross revenue of upwards to $25 billion by 2016. By these estimates, the Philippines' BPO industry will account for approximately 10 per cent of the nation's GDP. History...

KRAFT d. NYACS e. DUPONT CIRCLE CONSERVANCY IV. Summarization I. Introduction Corporate and organizational bylaws contain the rules and procedures that regulate the organization to which they apply and are generally concerned with the operation of the organization.

...RISK MANAGEMENT IN BANKS The business of banking today is synonymous with active risk management than it was ever before. The success and failure of a banking institution heavily depends on the strength of the risk management system in the current environment. This is true as the very business of banking is risk-taking as an intermediary, i.e. interposing between savers (depositor) on one hand and the borrower on the other hand, thereby accepting the risks of intermediation. Risk Management: Meaning & Components A risk can be defined as an unplanned event with financial consequences resulting in loss or reduced earnings. Therefore, a risky proposition is one with potential profit or a looming loss. Risk stems from uncertainty or unpredictability of the future. In commercial and business risk generates profit or loss depending upon the way in which it is managed. Risk can be defined as the volatility of the potential outcome. Risk is the possibility of something adverse happening. Risk management is the process of assessing risk, taking steps to reduce risk to an acceptable level and maintaining that level of risk. The essential components of any risk management system are – * Risk Identification: i.e. the naming and defining of each type of risk associated with a transaction or type of product or service; * Risk Measurement: i.e. the estimation of the size, probability and timing of potential loss under various scenarios; * Risk Control: i.e....

...JS 5/1/2013 POLS 3315-001 Party Issue Valuations and Reassessments Why do political parties in the United States abandon or revisit specific issues? Moreover, what is the driving force behind a party making an issue politically salient? Some examples that could be correlated with these questions could be why the Republican Party has stayed silent on issues that many old-guard Democrats feel is contentious in the current administration, why the sudden recent ideological transformation of conservative party, or why many politicians steer clear from Wall-Street related subjects (even though lashing out against bankers these days is sure to garner some attention, and most likely support from the general public). All of these examples and more will be discussed in order to provide a sufficient answer as to why issues are left behind in the dust or put out prominently on display. There are numerous factors and variables to consider when trying answering such a question, one of which could be racial factors. It’s been largely documented that Latinos have been an increasingly growing electorate, going from 1 percent of voters from the 1950s to over 11% in the twenty-first century (Abramowitz 27). With this information in mind, it would make sense that the Democratic establishment is today trying to initiate immigration reform in the United States Senate, knowing that they’ll have an increasing amount of support from their Latino electorate. It should also be noted that although...

...1 http://online.wsj.com/article/BT-CO-20120405-708286.html * April 5, 2012, 10:23 a.m. ET By Alan Zibel Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--A U.S. bank regulator on Thursday cited Citigroup Inc. (C) for failing to comply with a federal law that requires banks to establish protections against money-laundering but didn't impose a fine. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency said that Citi's U.S. banking unit showed deficiencies in its compliance with the bank-secrecy act, which requires banks to report on suspicious activities and maintain other protections against money laundering. Citi neither admitted nor denied the regulator's allegations and entered into a consent order with the regulator to fix the problems. Though the regulator didn't issue a fine, it still has the right to do so. The regulator said the bank had numerous weaknesses, including problems identifying and monitoring high-risk customers. In response, Citi said that the bank has "taken significant steps" in developing plans to manage the risk of money-laundering risks. "Because of these actions, many of the issues highlighted in the OCC's order have already been remediated or are in the process of being remediated," the bank said. "Furthermore, we are developing a plan to address the remaining OCC requirements.
