The author knows sellers of new vehicles are having a harder time, but even in the good times he could never understand why you would want to pay all that money, only to lose a third of it the moment you drove off the forecourt. It's far more sensible to buy pre-owned, and this is indisputably a booming market. One of the problems faced by any sellers of expensive goods is the continuing constrictions on the US economy because of the absence of freely available credit. The self-important Economic Intelligence Unit recently alerted a massive erosion of confidence since the onset of the financial crisis. The majority of risk professionals in financial services apparently no longer subscribe to the basic principles of risk management, it has concluded. Out of 334 senior risk professionals ...
NEW YORK, April 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- An overwhelming majority -- 93 percent -- of mid-market companies expect the United States economy to grow, according to top-line results of a new survey from Deloitte titled, "Mid-Market Perspectives: 2011 Report on America's Economic Engine." Ongoing concern about government debt and overall strength of the economy, however, tempers respondents' optimism. Conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit, the survey gauges the economic outlook of mid-market chief executive officers and executives from across the U.S. and revealed key insights into this business segment's plans for growth and recovery after enduring the worst economic downturn in 80 years.
BEIRUT - A healthy suspicion of the subprime market appears to have paid off, as Lebanese banks flourish in the face of the global economic crisis. A recent report released by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) on the Lebanese banking sector said that Lebanese banks are continuously attracting inflows of deposits, which in current times of crisis, has left them among the few banks of the world enjoying abundant liquidity surpluses. The report, published by Bank Audi's Weekly Monitor, noted that one cannot but point out to the evident immunity of Lebanese banks, which is to a large extent the result of the central bank's proper foresight in barring the country's banks from investing in subprime. The report indicated the robust growth in Lebanese currency deposits was due to investors ...
This paper explores the relationship between economic freedom, political institutions, and conflict. We use a relatively new measure of peace that offers the unique advantage of capturing both internal and external conflicts, and we use a Freedom House measure of civil liberties for political liberties. According to our findings, countries with higher levels of economic freedom, other things equal, also have lower levels of external and internal conflict. In addition, we find a statistically significant relationship between the degree of civil liberty protection in a country and conflict. Our preliminary findings provide further evidence of the negative relationship between economic freedom and conflict (or positive relationship between economic freedom and peace).

LONDON, March 18, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- US rates will not rise for another year - a dramatic change in the forecast from the Economist Intelligence Unit. Economic weakness means that a further twelve months will elapse before the Fed ups rates leaving them on hold till late 2011.

While signals about the pace of economic recovery continue to be mixed, a new study released by Navigant Consulting Inc, and the Economist Intelligence Unit shows a dramatic uptick in the number of fraudulent transfer claims filed as a result of last year's financial crisis. In the wake of the increase in fraudulent transfer claims, the study found that many financial institutions are taking steps to manage their risks. In one high-profile fraudulent transfer, Florida-based homebuilder Tousa Inc and its subsidiaries were found by a Bankruptcy Court to have been insolvent both before and after engaging in a secured loan transaction.

Because increased economic growth depends on the protection provided by the security force, the population becomes less tolerant of violent elements threatening its investments. Experience significantly influences the capabilities that go into designing a security force's economic operations. Because of the experiences of the French in Algeria, the British in Oman and Malaysia, and the United States in Vietnam, most Western militaries think of economic development as road construction, rice-paddy irrigation, school construction, well drilling, seed and livestock distribution, and the like.
