  • Trump and Trade Updates – April 2017
    Trump and Trade Updates – April 2017 Commerce Moves to Review China’s “Nonmarket Economy” Status 4/3/17 – The Trump administration on April 3, 2017 issued a notice of initiation and request for public comment and information pertaining to whether the People’s Republic of China (PRC) should continue to be treated as a nonmarket economy (NME) country under the antidumping and countervailing duty laws. The notice in the Federal Register indicates that this inquiry is part of the Department of Commerce’s less-than-fair-value investigation of certain aluminum foil from the PRC. The notice states that the Department of Commerce has treated the PRC as an NME country in all past antidumping duty investigations and administrative reviews. Yet, under the agreement with the PRC regarding its accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO), the PRC believes that WTO members were required to begin treating it as a market economy in December 2016. The department is conducting this inquiry in order to obtain the most recent data and information available from U.S. industry, and the notice states that U.S. law allows it to review the PRC's nonmarket economy status "at any time." The timing of this notice is interesting, given that Chinese President Xi Jinping is traveling to the United States for talks later this week. Draft Notice to Congress Indicates Intent to Begin Renegotiating NAFTA 4/3/17 – In a draft letter to the Senate and House of Representatives, the Trump administration appeared closer to formally announcing and notifying Congress of its intent to begin renegotiating the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).

General Business President's Report It is with great pleasure that I present the President’s Report for the 2013/2014 season. Season 13/14 was another successful one for the Club. A Club Championship, all teams( bar one) reaching Semi-Finals and managing to win some silverware from all three cricket associations in Newcastle goes some way to show the great effort that was put in by all our players. Following on from last season’s success in the NJCA competitions we once again took out the Club Championship; back to back wins is an outstanding achievement. Congratulations to all the players, coaches, managers and parents involved. The 4th grade team came first in the NDCA competition and the D1 side won their final in the C&S competition. Special mention goes to the very talented Will Davis on winning the NJCA Player of the Year award; also to Michael Wilkinson on winning the NDCA 3rd grade bowling award. The Milo In2Cricket program was again a huge success; our thanks to Tom Anderson and all who were involved with it. The two English imports, Mitch Claydon and Alexei Kervezee, made great contributions on the field for the 1st grade side and helped lift them from last to fifth on the ladder.

J. Int'l L. & Bus. 335 (2009) This Article is brought to you for free and open access by Northwestern University School of Law Scholarly Commons. It has been accepted for inclusion in Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business by an authorized administrator of Northwestern University School of Law Scholarly Commons. Corporate Governance Convergence: Lessons from the Indian Experience Afra Afsharipour* Abstract: Over the past two decades, corporate governance reforms have emerged as a centralfocus of corporatelaw in countries across the development spectrum. Various legal scholars studying these reform efforts have engaged in a vigorous debate about whether globalization will lead to convergence of corporategovernance laws toward one model of governance: namely the Anglo- American, dispersed shareholder model, or whether existing national characteristicswill thwart convergence. Despite rapid economic growth and reforms in developing countries such as India, the legal literature discussing this debateprimarily focuses on developed economies. This Article examines recent corporategovernance reforms in India as a case study for evaluating the competing claims on global convergence of corporate governance standards currently polarizing the field of corporate law. This Article seeks to make a fresh contribution to the convergence debate by examining the implications of India 's corporate governance reform efforts. It contends that the Indian experience demonstrates that traditional theories predicting convergence, or a lack thereof fail to fully capture the trajectory of actual corporate governance reforms.

    SARALA BIRLA PUBLIC SCHOOL LETTERETTER April-July 2018-19 Speaking Personally... Learning is not a process that ends with the conclusion of one's school career. It is indeed a lifelong process. In an era of competition , success can only be achieved if one makes the right kind of effort at the right time. India is one of the few countries in the world that is blessed with rich cultural heritage, highly hard working pool of young people seeking new knowledge and education to raise India's stature to the top economies in the world. We, the members of Sarala Birla family, consistently give our young wards the proper orientation to become the successful, dynamic citizens of tomorrow. So, we focus on B. K. Dalan multidisciplinary way of teaching as education is the tool which helps us in removing all our doubts and Secretary fears about all the challenges. As we know school is the miniature of society: hence we, at SBPS teach children the importance of tolerance. It is their preparatory stage for entering public life and respecting each other's culture .Discipline, values and integrity are the foundation of this school. We respect the individuality of the students and help them develop inter and intra personal skill because we strongly believe in the theory of 'multiple intelligence'. Our pedagogy is child – centric with emphasis on inquiry and project‐based learning. We focus not only on scholastic and co‐scholastic but also on development of skills. Communication is one of the most important skills for a person so our school promotes multilingualism to Pradip Varma Head, Personnel & Admin.

The shareholding in SMHFCL is held by Svatantra Holdings Private Limited (SHPL) and 90% of shareholding in SHPL is held by Ms. Ananyashree Birla who is the Founder and Chairperson of the Svatantra group and has received funding through preference shares (to be repaid after ten years) from Birla Group Holdings Private Limited (BGHPL) and IGH Holdings Private Limited (IGHPL) which are investment companies of Aditya Birla group. The ratings factor in good capitalization levels and moderate gearing levels, improved ability to access funds, stable business growth, experienced management team and expected growth on the back of untapped potential in the low income unorganized borrower segment along with government thrust in providing affordable housing throughout the country.

  • The People Shaping the Trump Administration
    The People Shaping the Trump Administration Despite Running on a Pledge to ‘Drain the Swamp’ and Crack Down on Special Interests, Donald Trump Has Filled His Transition Team With Lobbyists and Others With Potential Conflicts November 16, 2016 – Donald Trump rode to the White House by raging about alleged rampant corruption in Washington and pledging to “drain the swamp.” Each of the five points in the ethics platform he issued in October focused on diminishing the influence of lobbyists.1 These included a promise to impose a five-year ban on former executive branch officials lobbying the federal government. Trump further promised to crack down on special interest-influence by expanding the definition of lobbyist to include consultants and others who trade on inside government information and expertise.2 But Trump’s nascent transition team, which will shape his administration, is swarming with lobbyists and other special interests. Many of the lobbyists are working for the transition on areas for which they currently are lobbying the federal government. Meanwhile, many of those who aren’t lobbyists appear to have potential conflicts of interest. Vice president-elect Mike Pence reportedly said on November 15 that the transition team would be purged of lobbyists, but the transition team has not made the point official.3 Even if true, that remedy would not address cases such as a defense contractor working on defense interests, or a lawyer for health care interests working on health care reform. Here are brief summaries of individuals who have been reported in the media as overseeing agencies or policies for Trump’s transition team.
