not modifying the risk profiles of these products. Fostering product innovation The Luxembourg government actively encourages innovation through the legal and regulatory framework. The expertise of fund service providers is another important factor. In 2009 alone, Luxembourg UCIT S have won four innovation awards from Feri EuroRating in several countries and from the German ¤uro magazine. In the non-harmonised universe, the specialised investment fund (SIF), introduced by the law of 13 February

Fiat-Chrysler case study 1. Make a PESTEL analysis, trying to identify the key drivers of change can have an impact on the car manufacturing industry. 2. What are the key success factors in the car manufacturing industry? 3. Compare the Daimler-Chrysler alliance with the Renault-Nissan one. How have they worked? What does it take to make an alliance successful in this industry? Michaël First of all, Daimler-Chrysler believed that the merger would resolve all problems that they faced

Design/methodology/approach – A qualitative analysis, based on data, other pertinent information gathered from reports on various economies within the supermarket industry and personal interactions with a few supermarket chains managers, is used to derive various insights of strategic value in retailing and distribution. Major industry practices and logistics trends are examined and answers are sought to important business questions. Findings – The results of analysis show that the supermarket industry is

macroeconomic conditions, and vintage (origination) year effects. The most important macroeconomic factor is subsequent house price appreciation, measured as the MSA-level house price change between the time of origination and the time of loan performance evaluation. For the empirical analysis, we run a proportional odds duration model with the probability of (first-time) delinquency a function of these factors and loan age. We find that loan and borrower characteristics are very important in terms of explaining

her. Her life would have ended then and there, and only her legacy would have been left behind. Though rape is a damaging experience, because she was raped and not killed she had the opportunity to live and see what the future held for her. This analysis is applicable in order to understand why Coker should not been sentenced to death. Perhaps castration would be more appropriate than death in this case, because Coker would lose sexual impulse. Through castration, he would be given the same opportunity

hand cells have reacted to viral invasions by developing innate defence mechanisms and by expressing restriction factors for viral replication. The understanding of cross-talk processes between viruses and host cells is a must to identify new targets for future antiviral therapeutic approaches. Cellular "Interactomes" for viral structural proteins In order to identify new cellular factors able to enhance or restrict early (entry) and late (assembly and budding) stages of viral infections large-scale

Researchers and practitioners have argued for an improved approach to sponsorship evaluation (Crompton, 2004). The call for such work stems from four factors. First, Copyright © 2011 ASAC.

Human PAX4 Gene Tsuyoshi Tao, Jon Wasson, Ernesto Bernal-Mizrachi, Philip S. Behn, Susan Chayen, Laura Duprat, Joanne Meyer, Benjamin Glaser, and M. Alan Permutt AX genes are members of a family of developmental control genes that encode nuclear factors and play critical roles during fetal development (1). Results of recent gene targeting experiments revealed that Pax4 and Pax6 are involved in pancreatic islet development: Pax4 mutant mice lacked - and -cells (2), whereas Pax6 mutant mice lacked
