Morgan Stanley Roundtable on Enterprise Risk Management and Corporate Strategy -- IndexMore than thirty leading scholars and finance practitioners discuss the theory and practice of using enterprise-risk management (ERM) to increase corporate values. ERM is the corporate-wide effort to manage the right-hand side of the balance sheet—a firm's total liability structure-in ways that enable management to make the most of the firm's assets. While typically working to stabilize cash flows, the primary aim of a well-designed risk management program is not to smooth corporate earnings, but to limit the possibility that surprise outcomes can threaten a company's ability to fund its major investments and carry out its strategic plan. Contributors summarize the development and use of risk management products and their practical applications. Case studies involve Merck, British Petroleum, the American airline industry, and United Grain Growers, and the conclusion addresses a variety of topics that include the pricing and use of certain derivative securities, hybrid debt, and catastrophe bonds.Contributors: Tom Aabo (Aarhus School of Business); Albéric Braas and Charles N.

This book shows that the classical concepts, such as the balance of forces acting on electrons, are useful for understanding superconductivity. The electrostatic field plays a natural part in this balance as it mediates forces between electrons at long distances. Due to its classical interpretation, the theory presented in this book is suitable for introductory courses.Lecture notes in physics ;Volume 733.ElectrostaticsSuperconductorsElectrostatics.Superconductors.537.2Lipavský P(Pavel),601283MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996466680803316Bernoulli Potential in Superconductors2504563UNISA
