I urge the Transitional Government to ensure the prompt implementation of a comprehensive disarmament, demobilization and reintegration programme so that these first steps can be encouraged and capitalized upon.

In the past, agricultural development has prioritized large scale, capitalized forms of agriculture, neglecting smallholders who feed local communities. And governments have failed to protect agricultural workers from exploitation in an increasingly competitive environment.

If banks of all kinds were financed with more equity, they would have stronger buffers to absorb losses. Both the equity and the debt issued by well capitalized banks would be safer and therefore cheaper.

Moreover, there already is a proliferation of regional development banks, from the Inter American Development Bank and the Asian Development Bank to the more modestly capitalized African Development Bank. These institutions cooperate with the World Bank.

The Special Human Settlements Programme for the Palestinian People in support of human settlements development in the occupied Palestinian territories has to date been capitalized with an amount of slightly over 1.5 million since its establishment.

Where there is a very small gap between the predicted future cash flow of a short term account receivable item and the current value thereof, the predicted future cash flow is not required to be capitalized when determining the relevant impairment related losses.

Structural reform is also fundamental to the moves toward a European banking union, for a union with well capitalized and safely structured banks has much better prospects than one without. Otherwise, mutualization of contingent liabilities could exacerbate the too important to fail problem.

If today s accounting rules are too insensitive to make this distinction, a separate entity could do the investing. A national investment bank would be capitalized by the government, borrow from the private sector, and invest in infrastructure, housing, and greening the economy.

Meanwhile, the continuing problems at European banks are a stark reminder that operating highly leveraged, thinly capitalized firms is incredibly risky. And the regulatory failures in Europe consider the German Landesbanks, for example will become only more obvious in the coming months.

the Fed and the Treasury decided to let Lehman Brothers go into uncontrolled bankruptcy in order to try to teach financiers that having an ill capitalized counterparty was not without risk, and that people should not expect the government to come to their rescue automatically.

But, while doing so, they are not likely to be expanding private sector lending to support economic growth. European banks are far more thinly capitalized, and account for a much larger share of credit extended, than banks in the US, where much more lending originates in capital markets.

Above all, they would insist more often that their counterparties be well capitalized. They accepted the risk implied by ultra thin capitalizations when it was mainly US government money on the line they would be more reluctant to do so if it was mostly their own money that they were wagering.

The banking system has just been tested to see if it is adequately capitalized a stress test that involved no stress and some couldn t pass muster. But, rather than welcoming the opportunity to recapitalize, perhaps with government help, the banks seem to prefer a Japanese style response we will muddle through.

You may choose between several styles of capitalization, including all lower or uppercase, book style capitalization where each word except conjunctions has an initial capital letter, and sentence style capitalization where the first word in a sentence is capitalized. You can also toggle the case, so that uppercase becomes lowercase, and vice versa.

Corbyn has proposed two alternatives to the UK s current policy of austerity a National Investment Bank, to be capitalized by canceling private sector tax relief and subsidies and what he calls people s quantitative easing in a nutshell, an infrastructure program that the government finances by borrowing money from the Bank of England.

And it has an institution that can channel help the International Monetary Fund. The IMF could set up a special vehicle along the lines of its New Arrangements to Borrow (NAB), which would be capitalized by a first loss layer from the EFSF with the IMF s own capital comprising a second layer.

For example, the United Kingdom s Independent Commission on Banking (ICB) has proposed ring fencing retail activities from investment banking activities in separately capitalized divisions of a bank holding company. This is a compromise aimed at minimizing the incentive to gamble with public insurance while allowing some economies of scale for banking activities.

That is why the completion of the ECB s comprehensive assessment of banks balance sheets and the start of Europe wide banking supervision will help revitalize sluggish lending in the euro area. In particular, increased clarity and transparency about banks balance sheets, together with a better capitalized banking sector, will create a more supportive lending environment.

Groupthink can be particularly dangerous if the central bank is also the banking supervisor, as the 2008 global financial crisis demonstrated. In 2006, every central bank that published a financial stability report (in other words, most of them) concluded that their country s banking system was in fine shape well capitalized and endowed with robust governance and strong risk management.

To the right of the Assembly s president sat the supporters of King and Church, while to the left sat their opponents, whose only point of agreement was the need for institutional reform. The distinction capitalized on long standing cultural associations of right and left handedness with, respectively, trust and suspicion in this case, of the status quo.

The British authorities believe that they are building a resilient global financial center that is capable of assuming big risks and withstanding large shocks either home grown or transmitted from abroad (that is, from the eurozone). But even HSBC, the best capitalized of the lot, has a leverage ratio of only 4.6 , while Barclays ratio is under 3 .

The tumult of the Maoist period instilled in a broad cross section of people a profound appreciation for stability, and a yearning to be left alone. Deng capitalized on this revolution weariness by diminishing the role of politics and the state in people s private lives and freeing them to release their pent up energy to pursue their own goals.

Finally, imagine the effect of all of this on Greece s financial, fiscal, and social security ecosystem With bank shares skyrocketing, our state s losses from their recapitalization would be extinguished as its equity in them appreciates. Meanwhile, the development bank s dividends would be channeled into the long suffering pension funds, which were abruptly de capitalized in 2012 (owing to the haircut on their holdings of Greek government bonds).

After all, they (or some of them) argue, the real GDP of the United States is growing by 400 billion per year, with about 270 billion going to labor and 130 billion to capital. Even after depreciation, that 130 billion of extra annual income is capitalized at about 1.5 trillion of wealth, so the current account deficit, even at 1 trillion, is not overwhelmingly large.

Indeed, while the FDIC and the BoE were working on their plan, the US Federal Reserve was developing proposals that will expose overseas banks in the US to a far tighter set of controls, and closer supervision, than they have hitherto experienced. The Fed is seeking to oblige foreign banks to create a holding company to own their separately capitalized subsidiaries, effectively giving the Fed direct oversight of their business.

In plain English, a supposedly well capitalized bank in the UK can have 97 cents of debt per one dollar of assets (and just three cents of equity). Such a low loss absorption capacity would get you run out of town in the US, where regulators are weighing a 5 6 leverage ratio (twice as much equity on a non risk weighted basis), and some responsible officials are still pushing for 10 or higher.
