  • Milestone Becomes First Leasing Customer for Multi-Mission H160 @Airbusheli @GECAS #H160reasonswhy
    Milestone becomes first leasing customer for multi-mission H160 @AirbusHeli @GECAS #H160ReasonsWhy Dublin, 5 October 2020 – Milestone Aviation and Airbus Helicopters have agreed to include six H160s in Milestone’s orderbook. The helicopters will be destined for a range of missions including offshore transportation and emergency medical services, the first of which is set to deliver in 2023. “Today’s announcement will see us enhance our orderbook to include the H160 which we believe will be an important player in the market in the years ahead. It is a versatile, multi- mission aircraft with the opportunity to be used in a number of scenarios, particularly serving EMS operations. It will be a valuable addition to our fleet and we’re already in discussion with operators to place the aircraft into service as soon as they are available,” said Pat Sheedy, CEO of Milestone. “We are proud that a longstanding customer such as Milestone is renewing its trust once again in Airbus helicopters. I am convinced that the level of innovation that the H160 brings to the market, whether it is passenger comfort, advanced pilot assistance, or its competiveness thanks to its increased fuel efficiency and simplified maintenance eco- system, combined with its inherent flexibility will make it a valuable asset to their operations,” said Bruno Even, Airbus Helicopters CEO. With 68 patents, the H160 integrates Airbus Helicopters’ latest technological innovations aimed at providing passengers with superior comfort thanks to the sound-reducing Blue Edge blades and superb external visibility for both passengers and pilots, not to mention the additional safety features provided by Helionix’s accrued pilot assistance features.

  • General Electric Partners with Leading Investors to Transform Gecis, Its Global Business Processing Operation, Into an Independent Company
    General Electric Partners With Leading Investors To Transform Gecis, its Global Business Processing Operation, into an Independent Company Move Will Enable Gecis to Pursue Global Demand for BPO Services Fairfield, Conn. (November 8, 2004) – General Electric today announced it has entered into a definitive agreement with two leading private-investment firms, General Atlantic Partners and Oak Hill Capital Partners, under which the firms will acquire a majority interest in GE Capital International Services (Gecis), GE’s global business- processing operation. Gecis already is one of the largest shared-service providers in the world, employing more than 17,000 professional staff. As a recapitalized, independent company, Gecis will be well positioned to offer its high-quality business-processing services to companies in the Americas, Europe, and Asia, where it already has operations. Gecis will continue to serve GE under a multiyear contract, and Pramod Bhasin will remain as president and chief executive officer, supported by the current Gecis global management team. Approximately 1,000 Gecis employees will remain with GE. The transaction, subject to customary approvals, values Gecis at $800 million. Upon closing, GE will retain a 40 percent stake in Gecis and receive cash proceeds of approximately $500 million, which it plans to use to fund growth initiatives. The parties aim to complete the transaction some time in the next six months. “This transaction allows us to offer our quality business-process services to an expanding roster of leading companies worldwide,” Bhasin said in making today’s announcement. “With accelerated growth, Gecis will provide expanded opportunities for employees and increased value for shareholders.

In this context, forward-looking statements often address our expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “would,” or “target.” Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, such as statements about our announced plan to reduce the size of our financial services businesses, including expected cash and non-cash charges associated with this plan; expected income; earnings per share; revenues; organic growth; margins; cost structure; restructuring charges; cash flows; return on capital; capital expenditures, capital allocation or capital structure; dividends; and the split between Industrial and GE Capital earnings. For us, particular uncertainties that could cause our actual results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements include: obtaining (or the timing of obtaining) any required regulatory reviews or approvals or any other consents or approvals associated with our announced plan to reduce the size of our financial services businesses; our ability to complete incremental asset sales as part of this plan in a timely manner (or at all) and at the prices we have assumed; changes in law, economic

  • Systemically Important Or “Too Big to Fail” Financial Institutions
    Systemically Important or “Too Big to Fail” Financial Institutions Marc Labonte Specialist in Macroeconomic Policy Updated September 24, 2018 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R42150 Systemically Important or “Too Big to Fail” Financial Institutions Summary Although “too big to fail” (TBTF) has been a long-standing policy issue, it was highlighted by the financial crisis, when the government intervened to prevent the near-collapse of several large financial firms in 2008. Financial firms are said to be TBTF when policymakers judge that their failure would cause unacceptable disruptions to the overall financial system. They can be TBTF because of their size or interconnectedness. In addition to fairness issues, economic theory suggests that expectations that a firm will not be allowed to fail create moral hazard—if the creditors and counterparties of a TBTF firm believe that the government will protect them from losses, they have less incentive to monitor the firm’s riskiness because they are shielded from the negative consequences of those risks. If so, TBTF firms could have a funding advantage compared with other banks, which some call an implicit subsidy. There are a number of policy approaches—some complementary, some conflicting—to coping with the TBTF problem, including providing government assistance to prevent TBTF firms from failing or systemic risk from spreading; enforcing “market discipline” to ensure that investors, creditors, and counterparties curb excessive risk-taking at TBTF firms; enhancing regulation to hold TBTF firms to stricter prudential standards than other financial firms; curbing firms’ size and scope, by preventing mergers or compelling firms to divest assets, for example; minimizing spillover effects by limiting counterparty exposure; and instituting a special resolution regime for failing systemically important firms.

  • Global BPO Leader Launches New Identity
    Genpact Opens Business Services & Technology Center in the Philippines to Service Global Clients New York, NY (June 8, 2006) – Genpact announces it will open its newest business- processing center in the Philippines this summer. Recruiting has begun at the 5,400 sq. metre facility in the Alabang suburb of Manila, where professionals will provide finance & accounting services, customer-service support, collections, and IT services to Genpact’s increasing roster of global clients. It is the seventh country of operations for Genpact, formerly known as GE Capital International Services. Genpact President & CEO Pramod Bhasin said, “Our business outlook is extremely bright, which is encouraging us to invest in countries like the Philippines where English is the primary business language and good talent is available. We believe the Philippines is a perfect complement to the services we provide to GE and our global clients.” Bhasin said the company expects to hire approximately 150 professionals and trained graduates in the Philippines this year. The Alabang facility has capacity for 800 associates, and Genpact employment in the Philippines could reach 2,000 to 3,000 over the next several years, Bhasin added. Genpact Senior Vice President Ashok Tyagi said the quality of recruits in the area has been “exceedingly high.” He commended the municipal Alabang government as well as the Philippine government for their support in welcoming Genpact to the community. WIDE RANGE OF GLOBAL CLIENTS Genpact provides a range of business services and technology solutions to global enterprises to positively impact their sales, earnings, cash flow, customer retention, and speed to market. Besides the 35 businesses that comprise the General Electric Company (NYSE: GE), Genpact counts GlaxoSmithKline, Nissan, Wachovia, Genworth, Penske, Air Canada, and Linde among the two-dozen Fortune 500 clients it has gained since GE commercialized its business-processing outsourcing arm on January 1, 2005.
