I think this may have been the intention of Colonel 0. B. Forbes and the late Mr. R. H. Horne, for the latter, before his death, took over and enlarged upon some very useful notes obtained from the former, without which this history could not have been compiled. Colonel Forbes had obviously also, some time or another, made an attempt to ascertain the early history of the Colombo Brokers' Association {possibly for one of the newspapers) and in this it is apparent that he was assisted by Sir Thomas Villiers, to whose book " Mercantile Lore " frequent references in this history are made.

  • Sustainability Benefit Assessment As a Financing Mechanism for Urban Wetland Protection
    To MSc Programme in Urban Management and Development Rotterdam, The Netherlands September 2014 Thesis Title: Sustainability benefit assessment as a financing mechanism for urban wetland protection Shweta Raghaw Supervisor: Somesh Sharma Specialization: Urban Environment Management UMD 10 MASTER’S PROGRAMME IN URBAN MANAGEMENT AND DEVELOPMENT (October 2013 – September 2014) Sustainability Benefit Assessment as a financing mechanism for urban wetland protection Shweta Raghaw India Supervisor: Somesh Sharma UMD 10 Report number: 689 Rotterdam, September 2014 Sustainability Benefit Assessment as a financing mechanism for urban wetland protection ii Summary Wetlands face threat from increasing urbanisation. With increasing population, the pressure on natural wetlands, to be used for more economically beneficial purposes, is very high. In order to protect the urban wetlands, financial resources are required which are often not sufficiently available with the government. Alternative sources of finance can be identified, especially from the private sector. However, since wetlands are not very productive in the ‘economic’ terms, it is difficult to generate funds for their protection. The research consists of identification of sustainability benefits of Beddagana Wetlands in Colombo to demonstrate the methodology of SBA and further making use of this assessment to test the feasibility of finance for urban wetlands. The main objective of the research is to explain that to what extent, and in which form, visibility of sustainability benefits can help to make wetland conservation attractive for finance. Previous researches have been instrumental in forming the basis of this research. The theoretical background helped in identifying concepts within the overall purview of ecosystem services, wetland conservation and financing mechanisms for ecosystem preservation.
