In Six Sizzling Markets, seasoned financial veteran Pran Tiku effectively outlines how you can profit from investing in six dynamic emerging market economies: Brazil, Russia, India, and China (collectively known as BRIC), as well as South Korea and Mexico. Tiku introduces each country by painting a picture of its historical and political landscapes and quickly moves on to provide you with practical applications and profitable strategies for these markets.

This reliable resource skillfully addresses growth opportunities and describes sustainable investment strategies-based on vigorous research and investment experience-and provides a basis for investing in these markets by explaining the opportunities that are available. Six Sizzling Markets also argues that meaningful diversification is likely to reduce risk and enhance returns based on well-known principles of modern portfolio theory.

How should companies be organized? To whom should boards of directors be responsible-shareholders, or a wider group of stakeholders? In this fiercely competitive world we cannot judge our own system of corporate governance in isolation; it must bear comparison with the best. The second edition of this acclaimed and well-established book aims to do just that. Since publication of the first edition interest in corporate governance has greatly increased, codes have proliferated, and principles laid down nationally and internationally. In Keeping Good Company, the author describes developments in the system of corporate governance-both the business environment and the particular structures of company organization-in five major industrial countries: Germany, Japan, France, the USA and the UK. This second edition is fully revised, updated and expanded, and includes a new conclusion looking at a number of ongoing issues in corporate governance, and an appendix discussing the role of international organizations.
