Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -A swaption is a sort of fixed-income derivatives in finance, which are widely traded in financial markets. Thus, swaption pricing is a hot topic in financial mathematics. In this thesis, we will analyze swaptions whose short term interest rates are assumed to follow some affine models with dimension of factors more than two, so called multiple-factor interest rate models. Considering there is no analytical solution for such a swaption price , we attempt to approximate it, and our discussion will focus on one of these approximation method proposed by Collin-Dufresne and Goldstein. We will discuss the situations where the underlying interest rate models are Gaussian and CIR2++ respectively and develop this method by providing an accurate measure of approximation errors. Besides, other swaption pricing methods in literatures that provide different insights into swaption other than CDG approximation are discussed, as well as analytical solutions under one-factor interest rate models if exist.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The goal of this study is to test what effects positive word of mouth has on relationship management. The relationship between customers and organizations has become a very popular topic recently. However the existing literature doesn't include anything related to the upcoming phenomenon 'social network sites'. There is not much research about the effects and value of these social networks in the whole CRM process. This study will try to close the gap or make start for further research. Through an online survey, there will be tested what effects positive word of mouth through social media has on the variables of relationship management and whether this effect has any further positive influences.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Attitude versus Altitude is the seminal work by the well-loved and world-renowned Dr John Chibaya Mbuya, a contemporary of Earl Nightingale. A human mind is like a thinking machine, if used properly. Unfortunately human beings are not taught to think at an early age. They are taught to remember, but that is not thinking. The author has identified ten immortal rules that determine your place in the ranks of the world's most successful people, namely: enthusiasm, ego, knowledge, truth, money, sex, relationships, culture and religion, capabilities, glamour and manipulation. Want to achieve your dreams Then just follow Dr John Chibaya Mbuya's immortal rules.These rules don't change, regardless of who you are and where you are coming from. All you need to do is use them.Your altitude in life will depend mostly on how you use your mind.A human mind is a terrible thing to worst.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The Australian oil and gas industry is highly important to the Australian economy. In this book author investigates the effects of weather, climate change, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions on the market value of the Australian oil and gas industry, arising from an interdependent relationship between climate change and the hydrocarbon-producing oil and gas industry. The analysis is undertaken in the context of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and Kyoto Protocol GHG mitigation policies. The investigations are undertaken at both the industry (oil and gas) and firm (refining) levels using the most important asset pricing models and the application of advanced time series regression techniques. The findings confirm that investors consider weather, climate change and carbon dioxide information in their investment decisions. This book contributes to the emerging field of environmental finance.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Executive compensation, especially in the financial sector, has long been the hot topic for debate. It recently got highlighted once again due to the global financial crisis that showed up as early as in 2008. The outcry is due to the existence of large proportion of performance-based compensation that encourages executives to take high risks in order to generate short-term profits, disregarding firm s future vulnerabilities. The finding showed no formal evidence for above hypothesis although many researchers argued in favor of some sort of executive compensation regulation based on accepted Principles. The book provides insight to the issues like: reason for excessive rise in executive compensation and its relation with risk-taking behavior; principles for executive compensation regulation and global response, with emphasis on Nepal (the blunder of Nepalese regulator, the Central Bank, and need for immediate revocation); and the way forward. The book may be important for students, scholars/professionals, and anyone interested in this field for policy-advocacy purpose. Policy makers, regulators, and government authorities will find it helpful in the decision-making process. 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The world has been tired of seeing limitless wars and conflicts what result in mere tears and blood. History suggests that men play the protagonist role in most of the conflicts, women bear the brunt. We now tempt to taste alternatively. The study has focused on the issue of women s role in conflict resolution and peacemaking based on a conflict laden area of Chittagong Hill Tracts in Bangladesh. In 1997, the government of Bangladesh reached a peace accord with the insurgent groups to halt the long-standing conflict. But no substantial change has been seen from the accord that was brokered exclusively by men. The study delved into the question that if women actively participate in formal conflict resolution process the level of conflict would not be so severe because they have long been doing this in the familial and community level. The study mainly on the indigenous women in CHT found some significant evidence that women are already in the process, directly or indirectly but they need recognition and proper support for further progress. We must address the gender dimension and gender blindness of conflict resolution. 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Color is very important in aesthetics, characterizing and personalizing a smile. An esthetic treatment has been one of the most required dental treatments, coming just after pain treatments. Color stability of restorative materials is one of the main concerns, particularly when it is in the esthetic zone and must be used for extended periods of time. Maintenance of color throughout the functional lifetime of restorations is important for the durability of treatment. This characteristic is not constant among dental materials. Management strategy indicated in clinical studies in which almost complete caries prevention was achieved in irradiated patients includes meticulous oral hygiene, limitation of cariogenic foods remineralizing mouth rinse solutions, and artificial saliva preparations. Several studies have shown that irradiation-induced xerostomia in patients with cancer of the head and neck is associated with changes in the oral micro flora and a high risk for radiation-induced caries. Mainly based on clinical experience and empirical evidence, it is now generally accepted that almost complete caries prevention can be achieved in irradiated patients by the daily use of fluoride 104 pp. Englisch.
