...OVERVIEW OF AN FMCG SECTOR Fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) companies are among the most visible across the world. Who has not heard of Nestle or Unilever or of Dabur or Parle? The FMCG companies may go global, with operations around the world or may operate only in India. They have one common feature and that is ownership of powerful brands. Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), are products that are sold quickly at relatively low cost. Though the absolute profit made on FMCG products is relatively small, they generally sell in large quantities, so the cumulative profit on such products can be large. Examples of FMCG generally include a wide range of frequently purchased consumer products such as toiletries, soap, cosmetics, teeth cleaning products, shaving products and detergents, as well as other non-durables such as glassware, light bulbs, batteries, paper products and plastic goods. FMCG may also include pharmaceuticals, consumer electronics, packaged food products and drinks, although these are often categorized separately. FMCG products contrast with durable goods or major appliances such as kitchen appliances, which are generally replaced less than once a year. In Britain, "white goods" in FMCG refers to large household electronic items such as refrigerators. Smaller items such as TV sets and stereo systems are sometimes termed "brown goods". Some of the best known examples of Fast Moving Consumer Goods companies include Colgate-Palmolive, General Mills, H. J. Heinz...

The phrase Corporate Social Responsibility was coined in 1953 with the publication of Bowen's 'Social Responsibility of Businessmen', which posed the question 'what responsibilities to society can business people be reasonably expected to assume?. Writing on the subject in the 1960s expanded the definition, suggesting that beyond legal obligations companies had certain responsibilities to society20. In 1984, the celebrated management consultant Peter Drucker wrote about the imperative to turn social problems into economic opportunities21...

...Prior to 1988 there was virtually no private sector in Russia or throughout the former Soviet Union. To take part in all but the most basic private sector activities was illegal. All productive assets, including land, industrial enterprises, homes and farms were in theory owned by “the people” (Leonard, Watson, 2013). This statement essentially sums up how privatized firms would be met if de-privatization becomes law. Their investment firms would become illegal and they would have to explore other ways to work within the law or dissolve. If we explore free markets they would be Pareto efficient and would favor the young. However, it would hurt the politically charged groups from the old regime like government officials. (Brickley, Smith, Zimmerman, 2009). Mass privatization was an excellent solution to the problem that state ownership was omnipresent and domestic wealth holders were insufficient to buy the assets. The mass privatization strategy also facilitated an extremely speedy ownership change in most transition economies, as few countries had contained a private sector of any significance in 1990 (Leonard, Watson, 2013). This information makes de-privatization favorable in my opinion. While privatization seems excellent, it stifles future growth and limits opportunities for all. The process to transition should be gradual and well thought out. Privatized companies run a large risk of losing their business if a violation is made. Politicians and Soviet era managers...

Asimismo, se resalta los problemas socio-ambientales que se originan dado que se quiere formalizar esta actividad por medio de empresas mineras, pero debido al posicionamiento de las empresas informales que dan trabajo remunerado a los pobladores de las zonas rurales que no son atendidas por el Estado, estas prefieren apoyar a estas firmas que la dan una manera de subsistencia más tangible que la ofrecida por el sector formal. Finalmente, podemos mencionar que se requiere de políticas de Estado que contribuyan al desarrollo de las regiones por medio de actividades productivas...

...PUBLIC SECTOR ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE 1.0. Introduction: One of the main distinguishing factors between public and private sector organisations lies in their objectives and sometimes funding structure. While public sector bodies have a more social objective and focus more on the allocation or distribution of public goods and services within the country, private sector bodies have the main objective of increasing the wealth of their shareholders (IFAC, 2011). However, both private and public sector bodies face similar operational and business challenges brought on by the economic environment and climate. A crucial question therefore is how to account for the activities of private sector bodies and public sector bodies in a way that reflects the operational structure of the organisation and yet their varying objectives (Barton, 2000). There exist two main schools of thought on the nature of accounting in the public sector, each of which is formulated by the view of the role of the public sector within the economy (Evans, 1995). The traditional method of accounting within public sector organisations has often advocated the use of the cash basis of accounting, with larger emphasis rather placed on compliance with the rules and regulations governing the sector (Wynne, 2003). However, weaknesses in public sector management have brought to the fore the importance of efficiency and hence the adoption of the accrual method of accounting within the public sector. According to...

...Tamnun E Mursalin "Digital Bangladesh" is currently the most commonly used words in politics, media, among the intellectuals and the civil societies. Since our Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in her party's election manifesto pledged to develop a digital Bangladesh by 2021, it has given a great hope to the citizens of Bangladesh. It turned out to be an opportunity for our prime minister to be in the United States during the time of election, and experiencing the Obama election campaign. Her learning has helped Awami League wining the election in Bangladesh in 2008 with Obama-like campaign strategy-the call for 'change', which has been responded widely by the Bangladeshi citizens. However, the focus here is Digital Bangladesh, widely accepted by Bangladeshi people from all walks of life. Not too many people understood the concept of digital Bangladesh but they believed it, as something related to information technology. It has been widely accepted by a good number of young voters, believing that the concept of Digital Bangladesh will solve most of our national crisis involving corruption, unemployment, illiteracy, poverty and price-hike. Even though without knowing Bangladesh has already gone through a bit of experience on digitization through few national level of ICT projects, such as, Chittagong Customs Automation System, selection process of teletalk mobile user through internet, project initiated by the pervious government on machine-readable digital passport system and finally...
