He'll get no argument from Gary Timlick, chief financial officer and vice-president of Wawanesa Insurance, which may be the best-kept secret in town. The company, which was founded in 1896 in Wawanesa, about a 30-minute drive south of Brandon, is the country's largest mutual insurer with 2,200 employees across Canada and the U.S., including 510 in Manitoba. Even though it has annual premiums of $1.9 billion, it's hardly on the tip of consumers' tongues. That's because its customers are insurance brokers who, in turn, recommend Wawanesa products to the general public. Insurance is an industry that won't be impacted in any significant manner until things are very serious. We, as a company, survived the Great Depression, but I don't think we're going into a depression today. I think there...

We just don't know what to do with this money," says Mrs. J, a school teacher. "We're in the same boat at the end of every year where we have between $10,000 and $25,000 that we have to do something with. Like many other investors, their faith in the market has been shaken. "When I look at the amount of money I have invested in RSPs, I'm in the negative right now," Mrs. J says about their retirement savings plans, totalling close to $50,000 combined. "Any earnings within those accounts -- dividends, interest or capital gains -- won't be realized on a yearly basis," [Sunday Opaleke] says. "Looking at this couple's income right now, where they are just about earning at the top marginal tax bracket, this will allow their investment to grow a little bit faster."

It eliminates those conversations where you tell the airline you want to fly on the noon flight on Saturday on your points and you're told, 'We don't have any more frequent flyer seats.' Now that's out of the equation," she says. "If you're thinking about getting a rewards card, you have to consider the tradeoff, whether it's the fee or interest rate charged. It doesn't mean it will be a bad choice, it might be great if it's advantageous to you. Just realize what it might be costing you," she says. It's a pretty simple income statement for credit card providers. They make money on interest paid on overdue accounts (you typically have a grace period of between 20 and 30 days where the loan is free before you have to make your first payment) and on annual fees. On the expense side, they'...

What is the privacy payoff? For the Royal Bank, which has had a privacy code since 1987, privacy is worth $11 billion and change. According to Peter Cullen, RBC's former privacy officer, RBC's studies showed that privacy accounts for 7% of their customers buying decision. For personal clients, it's 14% of the brand value. RBC's customer surveys found that over 80% would "walk" if they believed their personal information was not being protected.

This article focuses on rural girls' aspirations of becoming migrants in a setting where girls are subjected to social constraints curtailing their movements in the midst of an otherwise mobile society, where mothers and grandmothers frequently recall their experiences in Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire, and boys set off on their first migration in their mid- or late teens. However, the high level of mobility affects both intergenerational relations and the ways in which girls can justify their wish to migrate. Based on multi-sited ethnographic research between 2002 and 2008 in Burkina Faso and Côte d'Ivoire, the article explores the ways in which images of success and material wealth of (trans)national migrants feed into adolescent girls' imaginations of migration and its outcome. Furthermore,...

Britain forbade her 18th-century American colonies to set up mints and sent no supplies of her own coins. In consequence, the colonies were without any official money. Account books of the period reveal how traders fared in this unusual situation. They show that the lack of money were a severe handicap that hindered and distorted trade, but that the colonists to some extent overcame it with the aid of ingenious ledger entries. These culminated in payment by credit transfers in the books of third parties. Such transactions lead to a discussion of the nature of money.
...The accounts show that the lack of official coins was a severe ..., the colonies must have had their share; market forces would equalize prices and exchange rates ev...
The trend line has been very positive (for consultants)," [Murray Taylor] said in an interview. "We're up in excess of 300 year-to-date. The growth is strong and sustained. "There was no reason to fear Mackenzie. (The clients) left purely over concerns around asset-backed issues, which was of no relevance to Mackenzie," he said. "Socially responsible investing is something we've been very active in. We believe there is quite a large and growing interest among many investors in various dimensions of socially responsible investing," he said.

This paper presents a case study of the co-operative design, development, and implementation of an XBRL-enabled interorganizational system (IOS) by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority, the Reserve Bank of Australia (central bank), and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to revolutionize reporting by financial institutions in Australia. The findings illustrate that the complexity of data consumption patterns drove increased interdependence within the financial information supply chain requiring the co-operative development of context sensitive data exchanges and commodity-like IT infrastructures. The paper concludes that the co-operative model to IOS development exhibited here is likely to be more suited to the development of systems for financial information supply chains tha...
