  • Canadian Autonomy and Systemic Financial Risk After the Crisis of 2008 Louis W
    Canadian Autonomy and Systemic Financial Risk after the Crisis of 2008 Louis W. Pauly INTRODUCTION Canadian policy makers were tested during the 2008 global financial crisis. Subsequent journalistic and scholarly accounts commonly assert that they had passed with flying colours. In fact, stories told before, during and after the crisis seemed to readily fit an old pattern: sound Canadian regulatory principles and supervisory practices had helped offset the potentially devastating effects of manic shocks emanating from turbulent US and European financial markets. Those stories were not false, but most missed deeper truths concerning the origins of those principles and practices, and about the tightening constraints around Canada’s broader economic policies. Canada’s success in avoiding the worst effects of the crisis of 2008 reflected the legacy of its own financial disasters in the distant and not-so-distant past. Its preference for stability in the face of systemic risk was hard won. In the context of much deeper financial market integration across the 49th parallel, Canada also increasingly entailed more intensive collaboration with the Chapter_8.indd 161 2014-04-08 3:05 PM 162 | Louis W. Pauly United States and other economic partners. Systemic risks cumulated across financial intermediaries that were active internationally. When they threatened to overwhelm integrated payments systems, central bankers became the market-makers of last resort. In the wake of the crisis, governments and central banks in Canada and other leading countries moved to complement microprudential supervision with macroprudential measures designed to enhance the resilience of markets they hoped would remain integrated. Political interaction would determine whether that hope was justified.

    SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT BLEKINGE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY REMOTE PEOPLE MANAGEMENT RESOLVING ORGANIZATIONAL ISSUES AT CALL CENTERS: CASE STUDY OF THE BANK OF NOVA SCOTIA ELENA MASLOVA 820119 – P122 SUPERVISOR PROF. PHILIPPE ROUCHY THESIS FOR THE MASTER’S DEGREE IN BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION JUNE 2008 ABSTRACT School of Management Master of Business Administration Remote People Management – Resolving Organizational Issues at Call Centers: Case Study of the Bank of Nova Scotia June 2008 70 pages Transformation of management coincided with rise of IT and re-orientation towards the demand driven economy. IT facilitated the development of remote communication and data accessibility, while re-profiling the management methods, in meanwhile, customer focus has led to organization of customer-oriented establishments such as call centers. However, aside from benefits, including accessibility, convenience, and long term cost reductions, implementation of innovations in information technologies has yielded issues. Complete assimilation of technology proved to be difficult due to factors emerging from technological, organizational and environmental contexts. Namely, factors that are most applicable in the call center context are technology readiness and managerial obstacles. Another issue that had risen as a consequence of wide spread use of IT in the call center context is employee turnover. Although not directly linked to turnover per se, IT assisted in transformation of management methods, which, uncompensated, exert pressure onto employees, while often remaining unseen. Since pressure in addition to contributing factors is linked to stress, one suggests that stress is the leading cause of turnover at call centers. Accordingly, pressure to perform, along with applied control methods will be examined in this thesis.

    UNIVERSITY OF REGINA ARCHIVES AND SPECIAL COLLECTIONS THE DR JOHN ARCHER LIBRARY 89-78 WALTER STEWART By SHELLEY SWEENEY, WITH ASSISTANCE FROM MICHELLE GILLANDER AND LAURA RATHGABER JANUARY 1991 REVISED APRIL 2009 By ELIZABETH SEITZ 89-78 WALTER STEWART 2 / 20 BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Walter Stewart is an investigative journalist and writer par excellence. He has the inquisitive mind, the blunt honesty, and more particularly, the nose that makes for a good reporter, in every sense of the word. His love of the search for some kind of truth has led him to delve into a diverse number of subjects: the high price of food, Crown Corporations, the history of the Loyalists in Canada, the Pickering Airport fiasco, Trudeau. In all, he has written eleven books, ghostwritten at least two,and edited a book on Canadian newspapers. He has worked for the Toronto Telegram, the Star Weekly magazine, Maclean's, the Toronto Star, the FP News Service in Ottawa, the Today Magazine in Toronto, The Toronto Sun, and Policy Options magazine, in a variety of capacities. In addition to his investigative and historical writing, Stewart was Director of the School of Journalism at King's College, Halifax for two years, and Max Bell Professor at the University of Regina. He has lectured frequently, and appeared on radio and television. Stewart, however, is not simply all work and no play.
