...MATTHIAS HILD* The Google IPO initial public offerings (IPOs) since Netscape's public offering in 1995.' Bullish investors believed Google could set off a string of successful IPOs and put an end to a fouryear lull in technology offerings. 2 Executives at Google faced several questions in the following months, beginning with whether or not to sell shares to the public market.' If they made the decision to take the company public, what options did Google have for selling those shares? Was the traditional form of book-building through an investment bank necessarily the best course of action? As large investment banks were courting Google's potentially enormous business, management had to evaluate the different options available for a company ready to move forward. Ultimately, Google chose to sell its stock through W.R. Hambrecht + Co.'s OpenIPO, which was modeled on auction-based offering formats in France, Japan and elsewhere. In 2004, Hambrecht's track record of success was mixed at best and even today the future of this IPO format in the United States is far from certain. IN THE SPRING OF 2004, GOOGLE WAS ONE OF THE MOST TALKED-ABOUT I. HISTORY AND BUSINESS MODEL In 1995, Larry Page, 24, and Sergey Brin, 23, first met as Stanford University computer science graduate students.4 Their company Web site describes that first encounter as a clash of personalities that eventually led to their now-famous creative solution for retrieving relevant information from large sets of data...

The main points are recounted here to serve as a backdrop to the main topic of this chapter - the | |policies, procedures and systems necessary for the prudent management of derivative activities. | |Barings collapsed because it could not meet the enormous trading obligations, which Leeson established in the name of the bank. | |When it went into receivership on February 27, 1995, Barings, via Leeson, had outstanding notional futures positions on Japanese | |equities and interest rates of US$27 billion: US$7 billion on the Nikkei 225 equity contract and US$20 billion on Japanese | |government bond (JGB) and Euroyen contracts. Leeson also sold 70, 892 Nikkei put and call options with a nominal value of $6.68 | |billion. The nominal size of these positions is magnificent; their enormity is all the more astounding when compared with the | |banks reported capital of about $615 million. | |The size of the positions can also be underlined by the fact that in January and February 1995, Barings Tokyo and London | |transferred US$835 million to its Singapore office to enable the latter the meet its margin obligations...

...ork2012 - 2013 Catalog A Message from the President “Sullivan University is truly a unique and student success focused institution.” I have shared that statement with numerous groups and it simply summarizes my basic philosophy of what Sullivan is all about. When I say that Sullivan is “student success focused,” I feel as President that I owe a definition of this statement to all who are considering Sullivan University. First, Sullivan is unique among institutions of higher education with its innovative, career-first curriculum. You can earn a career diploma or certificate in a year or less and then accept employment while still being able to complete your associate, bachelor’s, master’s or doctoral degree by attending during the day, evenings, weekends, or online. Business and industry do not expand or hire new employees only in May or June each year. Yet most institutions of higher education operate on a nine-month school year with almost everyone graduating in May. We remained focused on your success and education, and continue to offer our students the opportunity to begin classes or to graduate four times a year with our flexible, year-round full-time schedule of classes. If you really want to attend a school where your needs (your real needs) come first, consider Sullivan University. I believe we can help you exceed your expectations. Since words cannot fully describe the atmosphere at Sullivan University, please accept my personal invitation to visit and experience...

... Pedersen* This draft: October 9, 2011 Abstract. We present a model with leverage and margin constraints that vary across investors and time. We find evidence consistent with each of the model’s five central predictions: (1) Since constrained investors bid up high-beta assets, high beta is associated with low alpha, as we find empirically for U.S. equities, 20 international equity markets, Treasury bonds, corporate bonds, and futures; (2) A betting-against-beta (BAB) factor, which is long leveraged lowbeta assets and short high-beta assets, produces significant positive risk-adjusted returns; (3) When funding constraints tighten, the return of the BAB factor is low; (4) Increased funding liquidity risk compresses betas toward one; (5) More constrained investors hold riskier assets. * Andrea Frazzini is at AQR Capital Management, Two Greenwich Plaza, Greenwich, CT 06830, e-mail: andrea.frazzini@aqr.com; web: http://www.econ.yale.edu/~af227/ .

Assessment, Management and Future Directions for Coastal Fisheries in Asian Countries. WorldFish Center Conference Proceeding 67, 1 120 p. Abstract This paper reviews the coastal fishery resources of Bangladesh emphasizing the coastal environment, capture fisheries and management issues relative to the sector. Bangladesh’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) covers an area of about 166 000 km2. This area has abundant natural resources such as fish, shrimps, crabs and other marine products. Shrimp and fish trawling is the most important economic activity in this area. The fishery sector makes a significant contribution to the national economy in terms of foreign exchange, income generation and employment. It is very important in nutrition, especially in providing animal protein. In 1997 - 99, the marine fisheries sector contributed 22% of the total fishery production of 1 373 000 t. However, the resources are being destroyed in many ways. The fisheries resources have declined and fishers are getting poorer. The decline is partly due to estuarine...

...2/5/2012 ECONOMIC NEXUS IN WASHINGTON STATE: DEFINING SUBSTANTIAL NEXUS Armikka R. Bryant* I. INTRODUCTION This Article explores the evolving framework of nexus and examines the constitutional constraints imposed on states’ tax jurisdiction and how states overcome those limitations. In 2010, the Washington State Legislature declared that out-of-state businesses with no physical presence in Washington were earning significant income from Washington residents by providing services or collecting royalties on the use of intangible property in the state.1 The Legislature also determined that, although these out-of-state businesses did not have a physical presence in the state and were not paying their fair share of Washington State taxes, they were nonetheless receiving the following significant benefits provided by the state: • Laws providing protection of business interests or regulating consumer credit; • Access to courts and judicial process to enforce business rights, including debt collection and intellectual property rights; • An orderly and regulated marketplace; and • Police and fire protection and a transportation system benefiting in-state agents and other representatives of out-of-state businesses.2 * Armikka R.
