Basics of Banking (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

The Liberian Banking System is arguably the best positioned in the West African sub region. Unlike its neighbors with not much growth prospects, the system has numerous opportunities for growth. The financial system remains vastly undersaturated due to the many years of conflict. It is just ripe for investments. This is partly why major players from all over the region are rushing to set up shop in Liberia. This book takes a simple approach in explaining the fundamental principles of banking and finance. It gives them a complete local touch with practical examples right from within the system. It views the entire system from a bottom up approach. It discusses issues as viewed by the smallest to the major players in the system. It covers the regulators, the regulated, the unregulated and addresses ways to reconcile the whole system. This book is one of the first written in decades that focuses completely on the Liberian Financial System. The author is a local expert who not only understands banking and finance, but also the Liberian Financial System clearly.

Autor

The author is an Educator and International Speaker. His work is a major part of the gradual reform movement in Liberian academia where Liberian scholars develop textbooks that address the current issues the nation face. This movement seeks to find indigenous solutions to Liberia's problems as opposed to relying on solutions imported from outside of the system. He and his family fled the Liberian Civil War. However, the experiences in several refugee camps left an imprint on his life. His longing for the homeland he'd left, led him to develop a special interest in the diverse culture of his people.

When he is not doing academic work, he follows his passion for writing which leads him on a fascinating journey. He is a leading modern Liberian Folklorist. He has written many short stories and poems as a result of his intense interest in Literature and History, especially Liberian Folklore and History. He is an active social commentator as well who runs several social blogs.

He heads the recently established Liberian Think Tank- Think Liberia. They are currently undertaking a project to create the largest free online Liberian database.

Currently, he resides in Asia, with his family where he continues his writing. He has two series coming up soon! Watch out for them.
