  • This paper estimates a definition of foreign direct investment, its forms, components, and determinants of foreign direct investment in some Arab economies. Then this paper will review the experiences of Egypt, Jordan, and Yemen in the area of attracting investment, and the volume of FDI inflows in the countries. The study concludes that the economic factors, political, legislative, and administrative environment influence the process of attracting foreign direct and indirect investments in the countries under consideration, while infrastructure is the factor affecting attraction of investments.

  • The OCC, Board, FDIC, and SEC (individually, an ``Agency,'' and collectively, ``the Agencies'') are requesting comment on a proposed rule that would implement Section 619 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (``Dodd-Frank Act'') which contains certain prohibitions and restrictions on the ability of a banking entity and nonbank financial company supervised by the Board to engage in proprietary trading and have certain interests in, or relationships with, a hedge fund or private equity fund.

  • Beginning from the end of the 1980s, many studies analysing the relationship between infrastructure endowment and economic development have been realised. A general consensus is achieved around the idea that basic infrastructure facilities are important features related to economic performance, although both magnitude and causality direction are debated. A peculiar feature of these studies is that, across them, different empirical and theoretical entities are referred to infrastructure without a shared conceptual framework. This article develops a conceptual analysis to critically interpret the existing literature, reviewing different infrastructure definitions, classifications, and, measurement used across studies.

  • State and local governments provided nearly all the government services the citizens needed, wanted, or merely endured: definition and enforcement of private property rights; construction and maintenance of roads, streets, sewers, water-supply systems, bridges, canals, and most other economic infrastructure; provision of most schools and some universities; regulation of many economic activities and much personal behavior; and so forth. [...] the welter of relief, subsidy, bailout, and other programs that the New Dealers brought forth in constantly changing configurations, in the hope (very successfully realized, especially in 1936) of buying votes, also contributed to the creation of uncertainties about the future security of private property rights, which impeded economic recovery-ano...

  • Entrepreneurship and the development of new business continue to be the forefront of socioeconomic development in virtually all economies today. Despite evidence of increasing research into entrepreneurial growth, the existing research is limited by the fact that most studies define entrepreneurial growth as a unidimensional construct and operationalize it as "realized" growth relying on financially based measures. Consequently, this article has two objectives: (1) to develop a set of accurate and comprehensive entrepreneurial growth measures; and (2) to test a series of hypotheses regarding precursors of growth intentions-more specifically, to what extent, infrastructure factors affect entrepreneurial growth intentions. These two questions were examined using Entrepreneurial Profile Qu...

  • [Doug Schoenberger]: We believe New Jersey's broadband infrastructure is absolutely a strategic asset to the state. We're proud of what we've done, but our friends in cable are very active here, too, and so are the wireless providers. That competitive environment is helping to bring broadband to businesses and residents in New Jersey. Schoenberger: A lot of people go back to the FCC [Federal Communications Commission] definition, which is 200 kilobytes per second [of voice, data or video information] in one direction. Broadband's potential for driving economic growth is a fundamental reason why it is important. Classic examples are transmitting MRI images via broadband to a remote doctor who can make a diagnosis based on that information.

  • We need to have a comprehensive plan that deals with building the whole infrastructure back up in the Black community," said [Rashad Byrdsong]. "We need something major. We don't need Band-Aid type of approaches of little programs over here and a little program over there. We need to make a broad commitment to begin to build the infrastructure of the Black community again, and all of these urban centers. "We'll address economic issues, educational issues, youth, the whole issue around the violence that we see-constituted as an epidemic based on the CDC definition-which is a public health issue," said Byrdsong. "We're talking about maybe beginning to (reevaluate) a Marshall Plan, similar to the Marshall Plan of Europe when they looked at the devastation and destruction of Europe and it...
