Building a Healthy Multi-ethnic Church - Mark Deymaz - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Building a Healthy Multi-ethnic Church - Mark Deymaz - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Through personal stories, proven experience and a thorough analysis of the biblical text, Building a Healthy Multi-ethnic Church illustrates both the biblical mandate for the multi-ethnic church as well as the seven core commitments required to bring it about. Mark DeYmaz, pastor of one of the most proven multi-ethnic churches in the country, writes both from his experience and his extensive study of how to plant, grow, and encourage more ethnically diverse churches. He argues that the "homogenous unit principle" will soon become irrelevant and that the most effective way to spread the Gospel in an increasingly diverse world is through strong and vital multi-ethnic churches.

The Battle for Wall Street - Richard Goldberg - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Battle for Wall Street - Richard Goldberg - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

An insider''s look at the changing balance of power on Wall Street The Battle for Wall Street follows the struggle for power between two giants: the sellers, traditional commercial and investments banks; and the buyers, upstart hedge funds, private equity firms and the like. The battle is about winning the hearts, minds, and – yes, the wallets – of global investors. This battle is still running its course, and with the insights of industry veteran Richard Goldberg, who has had a front row seat, readers will gain a detailed understanding as to what, exactly, is going on within this dynamic arena, specifically the forces behind the shift of power from the old sell side gatekeepers to the new buy side players. The book will play out in three acts: Act One will examine the instruments of change – liquidity and financial technology – along with their influence on the sell and buy sides. Act Two will look at the agents of change – hedge funds, private equity, financial entrepreneurs, endowments, exchanges and sovereign wealth funds – and their impact on the sell and buy sides. In Act Three, Goldberg will take out his crystal ball and walk through the strategic implications for the winners and losers in this battle, against the dramatic backdrop of the subprime mortgage crisis and the resulting shakeup of global firms like Bear Stearns. But Wall Street isn''t simply about institutions or corporate battles. It’s a landscape dominated by personalities. Goldberg''s unique access to major players will bring this book to life with amazing anecdotes and stories about the financial generals who have left their mark in The Battle for Wall Street.

Multi-Asset Investing - Sven R. Skallsjo - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Despite the accepted fact that a substantial part of the risk and return of any portfolio comes from asset allocation, we find today that the majority of investment professionals worldwide are focused on security selection. Multi-Asset Investing: A Practitioner’s Framework questions this basic structure of the investment process and investment industry. - - Who says we have to separate alpha and beta? - - Are the traditional definitions for risk and risk premium relevant in a multi-asset class world? - - Do portfolios cater for the ‘real risks’ in their investment processes? - - Does the whole Emerging Markets demarcation make sense for investing? - - Why do active Asian managers perform much poorer compared to developed market managers? - - Can you distinguish how much of a strategy’s performance comes from skill rather than luck? - - Does having a performance fee for your manager create alignment or misalignment? - - Why is the asset management transitioning from multi-asset strategies to multi-asset solutions? - These and many other questions are asked, and suggestions provided as potential solutions. Having worked together for fifteen years, the authors’ present implementable solutions which have helped them successfully manage large asset pools.

Chairman - Investment Advisory Comm., Government Pension Investment Fund, Japan “Multi-Asset Investing shows the substantial scope there is to innovate the asset allocation process.
