ISBN 92-9131-880-9 (print) ISBN 92-9197-880-9 (online) Preface In November 2010, the Committee on the Global Financial System (CGFS) established a Working Group to examine how insurance companies and pension funds are being affected by forthcoming accounting and regulatory changes in the current low-interest rate environment, and to investigate possible implications of changes in their investment strategies for the financial system. Over the coming years, accounting and regulatory changes could lead to reallocations of funding across financial instruments and sectors and encourage greater use of derivatives. The changes could also make it more difficult for insurance companies and pension funds to play their traditional role as global providers of long-term risk capital and accelerate the shifting of risks to households. The Working Group was chaired by Peter Praet of the National Bank of Belgium, now a Member of the European Central Bank’s Executive Board.

  • Past, Present and Future Harman International 2004 Annual Report
    Harman International 2004 Annual Report Past, Present and Future Our cover is a rendering of the new Shanghai, China Oriental Arts Center. Now under construction for the 2008 Olympics, it will incorporate two concert halls, an opera house and an eleven hundred seat theater. The Oriental Arts Center is one of many totally new theatres, athletic stadia and performing art centers being built to serve the most expansive Olympics in history. Harman International has received a number of significant awards and we expect to be very well represented. China is a compelling and sometimes tantalizing story for everyone. Our past, our present and our future are writ large there. Ten years ago Harman found a voracious market for our quality home audio equipment. That was the past. Numbers of very competent Chinese manufactures have developed in the years since, and have produced excellent products with increasingly recognized Chinese brand names. That is not a promising busi- ness situation for us, although our upcoming new media centers may generate revived interest—at least for a time. Our present is represented on the cover of this report. As China surges economically, its need for supportive infrastructure grows exponentially. Our professional systems are without peer, and we expect that part of our business to grow and flourish everywhere, but especially in China. It is clearly our present. The great opportunity before us, not surprisingly, is in automotive. Predictably, China is developing as a major market for automobiles and, consequently, for our Infotainment systems. We are the leader in Europe today and we are confident that we will be the leader in North America.
