When if banking regulation enough?

When if banking regulation enough?

Regulations have a major impact on how financial institutions are managed, how they deal with consumers, the types of products they offer, the structure of the industry, and the types of risks they take. The interplay between financial institutions and their regulators is so intertwined that one cannot define an institution or understand what it does without understanding the regulations that constrain its behavior.

The objective of this assignment is for you to gain knowledge of why financial institutions are heavily regulated, and why politicians fear that their failures could badly damage local or national economies. This will help you apply and integrate all of the course objectives for FIN507. This assignment has two milestones, with the final project due in Module 8.

Your project must include the following elements:

Your paper must meet the following requirements:

  • It must be 10-15 pages in length, not including the cover and references pages.
  • Support your answers with the readings from Modules 1-8 and at least eight scholarly journal articles (at least five of which are peer-reviewed). The CSU-Global Library is a great place to find these resources.

Refer to the Portfolio Project grading rubric in the Module 8 Folder for information on project requirements and grading details.

  • What is the current domestic and international economic situation of each country relative to the benchmark performance measures for that country?
  • Is the country currently following appropriate economic policies from a domestic as well as an international perspective? Provide supporting justification for your answer.
  • When the tools of country risk analysis are applied to the different countries being analyzed, which country is more likely to have what kind of crisis and why?

Conduct an Economic Impact Analysis

Conduct an Economic Impact Analysis

Based upon your reading and research, write a paper that explains the implementation of the principles of economic impact analyses in sports. To accomplish this, select a specific community and sporting event, sports facility, or other sporting venture to analyze.

You may choose to analyze the impact of constructing a new football stadium, moving an athletic department from Division II to Division I, or bringing a new minor league baseball team to town. There are many options and the choice is yours.

Remember, an economic impact analysis (EIA) examines the effect of a policy, program, project, activity, or event on the economy of a given area. Economic impact studies are generally prepared when a community considers building a stadium for a professional franchise with taxpayers’ dollars. The area can range from a neighborhood to the entire globe. Economic impact is usually measured in terms of changes in economic growth (output or value added) and associated changes in jobs (employment) and income (wages).

Additionally, the analysis measures or estimates the level of economic activity occurring at a given time with the project or policy occurring, and calculating the difference from what would otherwise be expected if the project or policy did not occur (which is referred to as the counterfactual case). This analysis can be conducted either before or after the fact (ex ante or ex post). The term economic impact can be applied to analysis of the economic contribution of a given activity or industry to the existing local economy.

Length: 5-7 pages, not including title and reference pages

References: Minimum of three to five scholarly resources
