...The purpose of the prospectus is to ensure that the company gives to the public a certain amount of information about its financial position when it is first floated and whenever it subsequently offers its shares and debentures to the public. It must fully and fairly disclose the relevant facts so the risk of investment can be assessed (Vanessa, 2011). Prospectus is a way to give the public a clear understanding of newly listed companies, the investing public should take time to read before investment. The providing of prospectus can also reduce the risk of fraud of companies as they need to disclose their companies’ information fully and fairly. From the Companies Ordinance, prospectus means any prospectus, notice, circular, brochure, advertisement, or other document which offering any shares or debentures of a company to the public for subscription or purchases, or calculated to invite offers by the public to subscribe or purchase shares or debentures. If the shares or debenture are offered to any section of the public, whether selected as members or debenture holders or as clients of the person making the offer or invitation, or in any other manner, it is to be regarded as an offer or invitation to the public(s 48A(1)). Thus, whether the document technically constitutes an offer or invitation to the public, it will fall within the prospectus provisions. The provision relating to prospectuses apply as the shares or debentures had been offered to the public by the...

...English 102-06 Prof. Leah Milne September 26, 2013 Who makes standards higher, and who’s okay with their child just doing “okay?” A child’s development is a very interesting thing. It has so many different ways of happening. The development of a child has many stages that it goes through. There has been a lot of different theories for how a child develops and why they it happens this way. Not all types of children develop in the same way. Your location, what school you attend what type of parents you have and etc. can determine how you develop. Also your ethnicity or race can affect how you develop and “grow up”. What I am interested in learning more about is how Asian American parents help their child develop and why it is seen as if African American children don’t strive or have the motivation to succeed as well as Asian American children. Although this may be a stereotype, it is what I see a lot; from my own experiences and from how the media portrays this. When I say media, I mean the news and movies. I want to find out what these two parents are doing differently and how we can get both groups of kids to succeed equally. What I am trying to focus my research on are children from African American families and Asian families. I want to focus on these two groups because they seem like they are on two different spectrums of learning ways. I don’t know this for sure yet. What I think is that Asian parents are a maybe stricter than African American parents. While...

...1-29-2015 Prospectus I will study the workings of Classical Greece’s political economy. It is important for me to understand this because I am minoring in Philosophy. Greece is important to Philosophy because many great thinkers such as Pythagoras and Socrates were “Greek” thinkers. So more or less, I chose Greece for a personal educational gain rather than just some random society to write a research paper on. World historians and readers alike should be interested in this research because from Greece came the father of Western Philosophy, which is the backbone of what is taught in Western academia and really had a huge impact to the world, as we know it. With Philosophy comes questions, with questions come many great answers that impact societies and even the earth. I want to study how Greece’s political economy impacted philosophic thinkers and people alike. In order to help readers understand whether or not outside forces like society’s political economy impacts deeper thinking like philosophy I will dive deep into Athenian Democracy, documents certain philosophers wrote in the day and time in which they lived, and even look into some other people of the time who had strong opinions on what exactly was going on them. Philosophy impacted more than most people think and I am sure in my research I will be able to back that up with primary sources to prove my argument. In writing this research paper I will be exploring the political economy of Classical Greece between 510...

...Poorva Singh Paul Tchir B02 Assignment #2: Prospectus 2 February 2016 Caste System: Effects of the British Regime In the realm of Hinduism, the caste system originated as a cycle indicating that one’s current actions would be the deciding point of which caste they would be born into in their next life. This karmic distribution was intended to reiterate the importance of a predestined dharma, or duty, that one would be obligated to fulfill according to the caste they were birthed into. The four castes, Brahmin as the priests, Kshatriya as the warriors, Vaisyas as the merchants and Shudras as the laborers became established to regulate each separate yet equally important role. However, scholars have argued that although the castes were not originated to instigate hierarchy but to perpetuate the sense of duties- it inevitably evolved into more of a class system, reconfiguring the meaning of the idea of caste itself. Scholars have also proposed that the context in which the caste system was established seemed to take a tangent from religious volition and became a means of categorization instead. In the face of this apparent hypocrisy begs the question: Did the colonization of India by Britain in the 19th century deter the caste system because of their personal interpretation of it towards a hierarchy rather than a means of accomplishing one’s spiritual duty? One of the plausible answers to this question is that the reign of the British empire during the 19th century resulted...

...Investment objective: The fund’s investment objective is to provide investors with long-term capital appreciation while providing current income. Primary investment strategies The mutual fund invests mainly in the stocks of mid- and large-capitalization U.S. sports manufacturing product companies whose revenues and, or earnings are expected to grow faster and has a history of paying dividend It will not invest more than 15% of its asset in one company, and believes that mid- and large capitalization U.S. companies stocks will be more resistant to market declines than stocks of average companies and those that do not pay dividends. The fund relies on the professional judgment of its investment manager to make decisions about the fund’s portfolio investments. The basic investment philosophy of the investment manager is to seek to invest in attractively valued companies that, in his opinion, represent good, long-term investment opportunities. Mr. Frempong believes that an important way to accomplish this is through fundamental analysis, which may include meeting with company executives, suppliers, and competitors. He bases his recommendations on factors, such as the fund’s investment objectives and policies; whether a company is considered a leader in its industry and its dividend payment prospects Securities may be sold when the investment manager believes that they no longer represent relatively attractive investment opportunities. The index for S&P 500 industrial companies...

...Financial Prospectus Content Paper Starting a new business involves time, money, expectation, planning, and decision. New venture needs to create a business plan outlining business ideas, concepts, goals, trends, strength, and weakness. There are 7 components of a financial prospectus to put a business into motion such as: - Business description - Market analysis - Market plan - Competitor Assessment - Operating Plan - Financial Plan - Executive summary The new business venture I planned to invest would be a Shrimp Farmer. The market demands of organic food have increased the global production of freshwater shrimp farming. Shrimp has become the most popular seafood in the United States. On the other hand, consumers are becoming more conscious and concerned about the environment damage. Many shrimp farmers often use antibiotics and hormones to increase the shrimp production. The methods used before to meet the shrimp’s demands have dramatically damage environment. Now, many advances in researcher found new methods and technology that have changed the scenario.

...Mormonism is a Cult The issue I intend to research is how the modern religion of Mormonism shows the same qualities as a large cult. When we were choosing topics in class, we had discussed about a paper that a student intended to write about that was very broad. Does religion cause war? When we had to simplify that topic I wrote down something along the lines of why modern Mormons go on religious missions today? At home I had researched the means of why Mormonism is the only religion that continues to spread its works around and so on. But in most of my research a lot of associations of cults and secret groups kept popping up on my screen. Looking into these articles and conspiracies, I found small relationships of Mormonism and cults like forms of practice. What I found that really took my attention was the tie of Mormonism and politics. Fascinating conspiracies of cult-like ideas root from the election of Mitt Romney and Barack Obama. The issue of religion itself is included into the constitution and has many controversial issues within. My topic of religion matters because it is a very sensitive word that takes on a lot of meaning. People dedicate their lives for faith and frown upon certain human interactions like love and controls it. I chose this because I do not understand religion and for some reason it is wrong to question it. My basic research question stems from Mormonism and cults. Other key words when researching are religion and politics and cult definitions...
