International Money and Banking

<p>As international trade and competition grow apace, the dynamics of banking and finance are constantly changing. Regulations are introduced, new markets opened up and financial services developed, all of which have important implications for global business. This is the first major text to offer an up-to-date survey of both international money and banking. The author describes systematically the workings of international finance, analyzing its important features and incorporating recent significant developments. He deals comprehensively with the institutions and regulations, covering the basics of such areas as exchange rates, financial markets and services, innovations, and including banking activities like portfolio management, debt servicing and loan syndication. While the scope is international, the book also contains brief summaries of topics relevant for closed economies. The book is designed to provide the reader with a complete survey of international money and banking in theory and practice and it includes questions and exercises to encourage debate and aid revision.</p>

<p>The international market is very competitive for high-tech manufacturers to day. Achieving competitive quality and reliability for products requires leader ship from the top, good management practices, effective and efficient operation and maintenance systems, and use of appropriate up-to-date engineering de sign tools and methods. Furthermore, manufacturing yield and reliability are interrelated. Manufacturing yield depends on the number of defects found dur ing both the manufacturing process and the warranty period, which in turn determines the reliability. the production of microelectronics has evolved into Since the early 1970's, one of the world's largest manufacturing industries. As a result, an important agenda is the study of reliability issues in fabricating microelectronic products and consequently the systems that employ these products, particularly, the new generation of microelectronics. Such an agenda should include: • the economic impact of employing the microelectronics fabricated by in dustry, • a study of the relationship between reliability and yield, • the progression toward miniaturization and higher reliability, and • the correctness and complexity of new system designs, which include a very significant portion of software.</p>
