Compare and contrast at least two approaches to measuring poverty (e.g. below 60% median income, minimum income standard, material deprivation, material deprivation & low income, multidimensional poverty, persistent poverty etc.). Produce descriptive statistics to show how many and what kinds of people experience poverty using these measures from (the latest version of) at least one of the survey datasets we have been using in class (or any other survey dataset from https://www.ukdataservice.ac.uk/).
Background (500 words)

Short background literature review of concepts and measures of poverty. The bibliography is part of the marks for this section.
Methods (1,000 words)

A short outline of the survey you have used including: coverage; purpose; sample size and methodology.
A description of the poverty measures you are using, including their strengths and limitations. Provide summary information on the variable/s that make up your measure.
Results (1,000 words)

Produce appropriate descriptive statistics that might include, for example: mean, median, frequencies or proportions, crosstabulations, comparison of means etc. You will need to decide which measures are appropriate and useful to report.
Compare and contrast the findings from the two poverty measures; how do they differ?, why?, what is it about the measure of poverty that leads to different results? Explore this further with the data.

Use charts and/or tables to display your results where possible. Note that Tables/charts must be numbered. Only include those that you discuss/refer to. Including extraneous tables/charts is a sign of a poor assignment and will result in mark deduction. You may paste tables/charts directly from SPSS, or edit them (e.g. in Excel) before including them in your report: this editing choice is up to you.
All discussion should be written in full sentences, with any findings described as simply as possible. Neither charts nor tables count towards your total word length.

What is the influence of the engagement procedure of stakeholders on the quality of disclosures of Dutch pension funds?

/in /by

In analyzing the quality of discoveries by the Dutch pension funds by collecting data from annual reports of these pension funds, the following questions will be addressed to determine the quality of developments.

Research question;

How is engagement of stakeholders and the composition of the portfolio related to the the quality of disclosures of Dutch pension funds?

Subquestions;

1;What is the influence of the engagement procedure of stakeholders on the quality of disclosures of Dutch pension funds?

2;What difference does it make in what manner stakeholders supervise the pension funds?

3;What is the relation of the composition of the portfolio and the quality of disclosures of Dutch pension funds?

4;How is ESG incorporated to compose a portfolio and how does this effect the quality of disclosures of Dutch pension funds?

Hypotheses;

1; The engagement procedure of stakeholders has a positive effect on the quality of the disclosures, the stakeholders are checking the pension funds on a regular basis.

2; If the engagement procedure is modelled in such a way that the supervision is strong or severe, this would also have a positive effect.

3; If the composition of the portfolio is complex, this would have a negative effect on the quality of disclosure.

4; When ESG is incorporated to compose a portfolio of pension funds, this would have a positive effect on the quality of disclosures, because more effort is put into the portfolio and thus more effort in making the disclosures.

Engagement is one of the most important strategies of institutional investors pinned at socially responsible investments (SRI). In socially responsible investment (SRI), commitment forms one of the core strategies of institutional investors. In examining the situation of Dutch pension funds, this reading responds to the following queries: what systems shape appointment with investees, and what factors determine the effectiveness of engagement? Engagement as a principle was used in the new Dutch pension funds; it was implemented by assets managers and service providers across the country.  Nonetheless, these performers are secluded from actors’ external the financial segment. The legality of the stockholder impacts the efficiency of engagement, while the figure for shares is less important. The connection among the engager and investee and the acceptance of the investee in the direction of the meeting are also of importance. Engagement can be prepared more operative when pension funds prioritize on precise subjects; aim corporations open to encounter, and also seek partnership with social and strategy performers.

According to Dimson, Karakaş, and Li, (2015), the engagement practices of the US-based asset managers have many questionable acts like which companies are engaged and whether these engagements are useful and how they address the investee and markets responds to engagement. This is in regard to how the Dutch are holding the total amount of assets of Dutch pension funds while it is rising; however, with significant concerns regarding if the majority of them can pay pensions when due. This is as a result that the necessary payments increase relatively faster in a percentage of 85% in the years 2010-2015 than the assets which held 70% in the years 2010-2015 (Kerkhof, 2017).

Numerous scholars have studied the connection between allowance plans and financial assessments of companies and pension funds. In precise, the impact of allowance plans on monetary estimates such as asset distribution, investment expenses, capital structure, and the possibility of mergers and achievements have remained studied beforehand.

Conferring to shareholder salience theory, three qualities govern the equal of the salience/importance of a shareholder: supremacy, legality, and urgency. Supremacy is the capability to govern capitals. Legitimacy is associated with the social approval of subjects and the technique that matters are elevated. Urgency discusses how urgent privileges of shareholders stay. It is clear, according to different studies that two significant knowledge bases can be pointed out. The first is the importance of general education on the communication of engagers employing investees.

Nevertheless, engagement is formed and matched by a system of actors creating engagement strategies, provided that data and executing the definite engagement strategies (Renneboog, Ter Horst, and Zhang, 2008). Additionally, the second aspect describes the current studies which insure figures and standpoints of institutional investors and asset managers in specific when reviewing the efficiency of engagement but not the perception of the investees that are engaged. In other words, understandings of the investees are significant issues in influential factors that impact the efficiency of engagement.

Research Model;

This research will focus on the historical model of data from diverse pension schemes. Annual reports that are published by various pension schemes can help in comprehending the quality and disclosure of the performance of pension in the Netherlands (Harms, 2018). The key aspects of being considered will include a better understanding of public pension schemes for retirees, pensions from the supplementary scheme, and those financed individuals. Since quality and disclosure rely on the guidelines provided by the reporting standard RJ 610 (Cam and Awan  2018); then it can be necessary to apply both quantitative and qualitative approaches based on the historical data that are being reported by all Dutch pension schemes.

Relevance;

The ultimate goal for examining the quality of disclosures by Dutch pension funds is to determine the essence of offering high-quality services through adherence to the disclosure as required by the national and international standards of pension funds. Focusing on the questions that can help in evaluating the efficiency of pension scheme systems as well as understanding how the interest of the shareholders as well as the entire stakeholders. This research aims to analyze whether the existing pension schemes are efficient in serving investees or not. Further work has been executed regarding the efficiency of the capital market in connection to the pension accounting information. Therefore, this research will focus on how the three pillars have evolved over the decades and discuss the outcome that has been obtained as a way of understanding the historical reporting, hence develop a solution to the current and future issues relating to quality and disclosure (Atuhaire, 2018). The matters to be examined in this study are mostly concerning Dutch pension systems. The study will also examine how the national and private institutions to design and implement changes to the pension accounting standards to raise interesting opportunities for future research on the pension scheme and exposure.

Applied Econometrics: Do relative prices determine the Malaysian exchange rate?

Introduction to theme

One of the most fundamental ways of modelling exchange rates is to specify relative prices as the main determinant. Broadly speaking Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) suggests that the exchange rate between two countries is equal to the ratio of their general price levels. This is a core principle of international economic and finance theory and is assumed to hold in, for example, monetary models of exchange rate determination.[1] However, the empirical evidence generally rejects PPP in the short-run while the evidence for PPP holding in the longrun is mixed (Bahmani-Oskooee and Hegerty, 2009). The “PPP puzzle” is that theory suggests that PPP should clearly hold, however, the empirical evidence is less than clear, with many researchers finding evidence that rejects it. This puzzle remains an unresolved issue in the economics literature and continues to warrant investigation. As such, testing for PPP is a relevant theme to be considered by undergraduate economics students in their capstone module.

A range of potential explanations for the many empirical rejections of PPP have been offered.

Some examples include the use of incorrect data in the tests, productivity differentials (the Balassa-Samuelson effect), corruption, natural resource endowments and the inadequacy of the econometric techniques used (Bahmani-Oskooee and Hegerty, 2009). Regarding the latter, time-series econometrics has developed over the past 50 years to account for the typical nonstationarity of macroeconomic data – that is, many macroeconomic data (including the price data used in testing PPP) are trended (integrated). These dynamic econometric methods (sometimes referred to as modern econometrics) focus on testing for integration and cointegration.[2] Essentially, these methods test whether the trends in different data sets are forced together (are cointegrated) or drift apart over the long-run. If macroeconomic variables move together, rather than drift apart, fundamental economic forces (as postulated by economic theory) are attributed as the cause. Hence, integration and cointegration tests can be used to assess whether the exchange rate moves towards the relative prices of the associated countries in the long-run. As such, these dynamic econometric methods have been predominantly used to test whether PPP holds in the long-run. One avenue of research has been whether the rejections of PPP using integration and cointegration methods have been due to deficiencies in the tests used. As such integration and cointegration methods have been refined and developed to account for such deficiencies, such as non-linearities and structural breaks.

 

An introduction to dynamic econometrics by testing the PPP theory will provide students taking this theme with an insight into some of the fundamental modern econometric methods (and how to apply them) that should be part of any econometrician’s toolkit. As such, all student will learn the core of the theme, being: the PPP economic theory, data collection and analysis as well as dynamic econometric methods and their application. However, each student will (as a sub-theme) apply these methods to a different pair of countries. Given that different countries’ data will have different features that will likely raise different issues, each student’s analysis be distinct. The sub-themes are distinguished by the countries used, as indicated below.

IN GREEN: Written by Myself: Need to check spelling and grammar

IN BLUE: Written Myself: Need elaborate more.

IN YELLOW: Copy and Paste: Need change the words to no be plagiarism

You are to provide simple, plain language explanations for each of the following terms:

  1. Mission Critical Systems

Mission-critical system are those that can stop an organization from performing its core functions if they fail.

  1. Desktop and Office productivity

Another important factor in business computing is desktop office productivity software and systems. This refers to the application software used by staff in the organization at their desks, and progressively via mobile devices, as a general tool contributing to their productivity.

  1. Cloud computing

Cloud computing involves accessing computing resources from remote location rather than from those located at the site of business activity.

  1. Virtualisation

Virtualisation is the process of making software-based, or virtual, representations of things, such as servers, applications and networks. It’s an effective way for a business to reduce IT expenses and boost efficiency and agility.

In computing, virtualization refers to the act of creating a virtual version of something, including virtual computer hardware platforms, storage devices, and computer network resources

  1. Cloud ownership – 3 types

Private Cloud: the cloud services used by a single organization, which are not exposed to the public. A private cloud resides inside the organization and must be behind a firewall, so only the organization has access to it and can manage it.

Public Cloud: the cloud services are exposed to the public and can be used by anyone. Virtualization is typically used to build the cloud services that are offered to the public. An example of a public cloud is Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Hybrid Cloud: the cloud services can be distributed among public and private clouds, where sensitive applications are kept inside the organization’s network (by using a private cloud), whereas other services can be hosted outside the organization’s network (by using a public cloud). Users can them interchangeably use private as well as public cloud services in every day operations.

 

  1. Software as a Service (SaaS)

Software as a Service (SaaS) is a licensing and delivery model for software hosted in the cloud by service provider and made available to user over the internet on some form of incremental pay-as-you fee. It is sometimes referred to as on-demand software. Some types available are: Office productivity tools and systems; Email and other messaging; Customer relationship management (CRM) tools; Warehouse and inventory management; etc.

 

  1. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a form of cloud computing that provides access to computing hardware (virtualised or not) over the internet. It separates the user from being concerned about details of the infrastructure they are using. Might be described as a remote machine without software. Some providers include: Amazon AWS, Windows Azure, Google Compute Engine, etc.

  1. Platform as a Service (PaaS)

Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a category of cloud computing providing clients with a mix of hardware and software to enable development, testing and deployment of user applications. The attraction of the PaaS approach is that its clients don’t need to own, set-up and maintain the required hardware and software components themselves. Instead, they can have they can have them provided quickly, almost on demand, and pay on a scaled rental.

  1. ‘Thin’ client

A ‘Thin’ client provides desktop users with application functionality comparable to traditional software applications suites without needing a big, powerful PC huge memory and hard drives. ‘Thin’ client often means a browser, a good example is Google Chromebook.

  1. Total cost of ownership (TCO)

The TCO extends beyond the initial price to include all financing, installation maintenance cost as well as associated staff cost

  1. Describe two (2) possible benefits of integrating cloud computing solutions for the business.
  2. Have the software in the phone or tablets so the employees can book jobs and send invoices for example, been able to access for a anywhere, so they can be more efficient.
  3. All business systems talk which other, for example Customer relationship management (CRM) and accounting software.
  4. Describe two (2) possible risks of integrating cloud computing solutions to the business.

Training costs, some workforce will sabotage the change, or take longer to accept the change.

Losing information or don’t be able to log on the system, because of a breakout or no internet connection.

  1. Connectivity issues, without a continuous data connection to the cloud, cloud services stop. Mobile works my have problem using cloud services, because still have geographic dead zones in internet coverage.
  2. Any company can fail and cease to trade, and it can happen overnight, this is just true for companies offering cloud services. It would be potentially disastrous for a business to find it had all its business data, customer records and critical operational systems provide via a company that is simply not there tomorrow. This is one of the major considerations against cloud computing. If things are in-house then, at least in theory, they are safe and under control.
  3. Identify two (2) different sources of technical support and/or specialist advice, to assist with cloud computing solutions for a business.

Advice directly from the cloud service specialist. Usually if the business pays a fee it may have already a technical support available, some cloud services may charge a higher fee or a special fee just for the business have a technical support. Other option for the business it to pay a reputable ICT cloud consultant. My email is: sarahrobsonz11@gmail.com
