信用保险：可持续发展投资中不可或缺的支持

环保项目融资为银行在可持续发展领域提供更多空间。然而对于银行而言,虽然秉承赤道原则的导向,但也要充分考虑融资风险。对于风险较大的项目,信用保险的介入使项目风险得以分散,一方而为银行提高了融资率,一方面使更多的可持续项目得以实现。     

Alarms Remain,Efforts Continue

China must come to terms with the fact that it has quality problems in at least 1% of its products. Though there is no country in the world that can completely avoid problems,given the responsible role China plays on the international stage,China should stop to take a look at itself and find ways to improve.China must examine herself carefully,when looking at the production chain;we have to keep aware that some alarms still remain.

Effects of Consumers’ Efforts on Price and Promotion Fairness Perceptions

This research examines how consumers’ efforts as a nonmonetary sacrifice influence their price and promotion fairness perceptions in the context of price promotions. Multiple studies using different price promotion tactics demonstrate that consumers’ perceived level of effort to obtain a reduced price negatively influences their fairness perceptions when they deny the promoted price. Exploring the underlying mechanisms of this effect, we show that the amount of effort consumers exert to obtain a promoted price leads to their feeling of deservingness and entitlement. When the promoted price is denied, this feeling of entitlement is violated, causing unfairness perceptions to occur. The research demonstrates that, in addition to retailers’ actions such as price changes, consumers’ actions, in the form of their effort input, are also an important determinant of fairness perceptions.     

Fluctuating Efforts and Interdependencies in Collaborative Work

We present a dynamical model of cooperative efforts comprised of concurrently performed, interrelated tasks. The model contains a stochastic component to account for temporal fluctuations both in task performance and in the effect of a given unit of work on the project as a whole. We show that as the number of concurrent tasks increases, so does the average completion time. Also, for fixed system size, the dynamics of individual project realizations can exhibit large deviations from the average when fluctuations increase past a certain threshold, causing long delays in completion times. These effects are in agreement with empirical observation. We also show that the negative effects of both large groups and long delays caused by fluctuations may be mitigated by arranging projects in a hierarchical or modular structure. Our model is applicable to any arrangement of interdependent tasks, providing an analytical prediction for the average completion time as well as a numerical threshold for the fluctuation strength beyond which long delays are likely. In conjunction with previous modeling techniques, it thus provides managers with a predictive tool to be used in the design of a project’s architecture.

环境与贸易:国际贸易主体间的博弈与融合

针对发展中国家与发达国家在环境保护和贸易利益方面存在严重分歧,本文采用博弈论中著名的囚徒困境模型,对国际贸易主体间就环境与贸易间的博弈进行了相关研究,研究结果表明,环境壁垒与对外贸易之间并不是一对不可调和的矛盾,贸易双方在环境与贸易中存在着两个稳定的纳什均衡。只要两个贸易主体在贸易和环境领域的全面合作,两者均可从贸易和环境中获得收益。
