...Ruth Krusen was ahead of big challenge. She had to decide whether Republic National Bank of Dallas (RNB) had to adopt new types of account system which was an innovation in 1977. Her main task was to find out impacts of NOW accounts on RNB’s revenue. NOW accounts were hard to adopt and was associated with several problems. NOW accounts became popular in 1972, it was better system then regular checking and savings account, it saved transaction fees and people realized that it was really a good thing. Small financial institutions adopted the product very quickly, and gained lot of customers from larger banks. After large banks realized that they were losing customers and money, Federal and State laws were passed which permitted commercial banks as well as mutual and SLS to offer now accounts starting in January 1974. A uniform rate was 5 percent ceiling to all the institutions and in The New England Now accounts were also offered to the individuals and non-profit organizations. In Massachusetts and New Hampshire Mutual banks were able to offer NOW accounts for 50 months, commercial banks had it for 30 months and all other financial institutions were able to offer it for only 6 months. The main issue was to use the correct marketing strategies, first one was not to use NOW accounts at all, use it for free and use it with some fees. Many small banks had already started to offer NOW accounts and had very competitive prices. While RNB had not started to offer NOW accounts and still...

...State Banks and the National Banking Acts: A Tale of Creative Destruction By Matthew Jaremski† Vanderbilt University Job Market Paper November 2010 Abstract: The National Banking Acts and their supporting legislation led to 303 state bank closures and 879 charter conversions between 1863 and 1869. This paper analyzes the sudden reorganization using the period’s first complete bank-level census. The data suggest that the national capital requirements prevented many existing banks from converting to a national charter, whereas a tax on state bank notes was responsible for the large number of closures. Moreover, the requirements prevented new national banks from replacing closed state banks. The legislation thus redistributed capital to developed cities along the “Manufacturing Belt”, potentially fueling the growth of factories and the populist movement after the Civil War.

...of the National Bank of Belarus In my exercise I would like to consider the experience of the National Bank of the Republic of Belarus as the country's central bank to implement the government project of the creation of the domestic market of precious metals of the Republic of Belarus. First of all I want to note that the number of central banks are involved in this sphere of relations insignificant in the world. As a general rule, commercial banks are engaged in this activity. Precisely because of these circumstances, the success of the National Bank depended on many factors, including well chosen marketing strategy for beginning and implementing the project. Just wanted to mention that there is no specialized unit responsible for implementing a marketing strategy in the staffing structure of the National Bank because of the nature of the central bank. The main tasks of the central bank are conducting monetary policy and its individual components - foreign exchange, interest rate and monetary policies. Nevertheless, I would like to give a characterization of the bank in the development of the domestic market of precious metals through the prism of marketing management. In addition, relying on Article Leslie M. Fine "The bottom line: marketing and firm performance" and Roland T. Rust, Christine Moorman, Gaurav Bhalla "Rethinking marketing", I would like to highlight some points that, in my opinion, are essential for this project. The project of the National Bank of the...

...2: Second National Bank 1. What do you think of the idea of having an annual off-site retreat for top management to develop the strategic plan for the organization? In my opinion, it is not a good idea because in many situations, top managers are not someone who involved directly to the strategic plan. Their main responsibility is to manage is focused on macro management process; as a result, many of them do not remember primary categories of the strategic plan; for example, in this case study, they did not even bring any copy of the plan to their meetings. Meanwhile, middle level and low level managers tend to deal with different kind of projects which are based on the strategic plan in more details. Consequently, they could figure out if the strategic plan is good enough and how it could be improved. Besides that, one of the most important factors which help recognize if it is the effective strategic plan is the strategy reviews from middle level and low level managers. However, via this case study, we can realize that no one in top management brings any review to the meetings. I think it is a really bad situation, since how the top management could adapt the plan based on the outcomes of those reviews. 2. Critique the planning process for the Second National Bank Firstly, the strategic planning of the Second National Bank should comply with organization’s mission and vision Mission: Provide excellent bank services Vision: “Exxor County’s Friendliest Bank” Then, the...

...What are the human resource issues facing the vice president's department and under which of the HR domains (e.g. Organizational Design, Staffing, Performance Management an Appraisal) does each issue belong? Identify some strategies for dealing with these issues. There are four employees under Suzanne Roberts (Vice President of Accounting at Valley National Bank); Bob Phillips, Carla Goodman, Greg Williams, and Kathy Lewis. Some of the issues facing the vice president’s department are: Staffing, Performance Management, and Appraisal. Bob Phillips came to Valley National Bank to manage through a merger. He managed/supervised only two people in his previous position and he lacked organizational and planning skills. He also has weak interpersonal skills which had created hard feelings among employees in the department. In regards to performance management, performance reviews are late up to six months and employee morale is low and attitudes toward the company have hardened.

Bob is very good at solving financial and accounting problems and he has an extensive knowledge of all major software programs. Another problem is Carla Goodman...
