Latest Credit Ratings I │ Letter to Shareholders In January 2017, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) published its world economic outlook that revised the 2016 global economic growth down to 3.1%. The report highlighted a drop in corporate investments in the United States during the first half of the year, impacted by the weakened market demand and strong dollar. However, the recovery of the labor market combined with wage growth fueled private spending and the real estate market, contributing to an expected annual growth rate of 1.6%. Meanwhile, political and economic uncertainty increased in the Eurozone after Brexit, which undermined confidence among corporations and consumers. Fortunately, the crisis was alleviated by the British interest rate cuts and continued loose monetary policy in the Euro zone, which as a result, boosted economic momentum with annual economic growth expected to be 1.7%. Growth in Mainland China continued to slow with estimated annual economic growth of 6.7%, mainly affected by rising debt risk, sustained economic restructuring, the elimination of excess capacity. In Japan, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s decision to delay a sales tax increase, followed by his 28.1-trillion Yen financial incentives announced in early August 2016, is expected to stimulate domestic demands and private spending, especially when corporate demand Chairman for labor has increased. Annual economic growth is Ming-Daw Chang estimated to reach 0.9% for the year. With regards to the domestic economy, the Directorate-General of Budget, Accounting, and Statistics (Executive Yuan) published its report on January 25, 2017, which revised economic growth to 1.4% for 2016. The report showed strong private spending in the first half of the year due to holiday spending (Chinese New Year, Qingming and Duanwu). The peak season was followed by slower salary growth coupled with reduction in net demand for labor that undermined private consumption. As a result, private spending growth rate has been revised down from 2.68% in 2015 to 1.99%. In terms of private investment, ongoing decrease in the price and volume of real estate transactions has discouraged private construction projects since 2015, and private investments continued to weaken given the nation’s lack of incentives for business ventures as compared to many other Asian countries. Nevertheless, private investments still expanded by 1.68% as semiconductor manufacturers and suppliers invested extensively to maintain technological advantage and to accommodate newer, smarter applications of their products. Import-Export trade had suffered in the first half of the year due to the world’s stagnant economy and competition from Chinese suppliers. It was not until the second half when demands for new 4 consumer electronics increased that growth gradually rebounded quarter by quarter, and contributed I │ to the rise of imports. Overall, export and import trade were estimated to grow by 2.14% and 3.34%, I Letter to Shareholders Letter to Shareholders respectively. Consumer price index (CPI) is expected to rise by 1.40% for the year, as food price increased due to impact of local climate and typhoons, while global prices of commodities are also showing signs of recovery. With regards to the interest rates, the Central Bank has maintained discount rate, accommodations with collateral rate, and accommodations without collateral rate unchanged at 1.375%, 1.75% and 3.625%, respectively. Given the recovery of export growth and moderate increase in private spending, investment, and consumer price, the Central Bank is expected to maintain interest rates unchanged over the short term, as opposed to following the Fed’s rate hike footsteps. As for exchange rate movement, the TWD strengthened moderately between January and August 2016 due to quantitative easing undertaken by European Central Bank (ECB) and Bank of Japan (BOJ). The Fed’s decision to postpone interest rate hike in the first half of the year that attracted global capital back into Asia, and positive export growth rate in July and August 2016. Later, as the Fed started to raise interest rates, the TWD weakened against the USD. Despite the challenging economic and financial environment, the Bank still managed to deliver exceptional results in 2016, owing to the contribution of all employees, with cumulative pre-tax earnings reaching TWD 14.083 billion, making 2016 the 7th consecutive year in which the Bank has earned more than TWD 10 billion in earnings, living up to shareholders’ expectations. In terms of asset quality, the Bank managed to maintain its non-performing loan ratio at 0.25% and loan loss coverage ratio at 458.58%. Furthermore, the Bank was selected a composition of the TWSE Corporate Governance 100 Index by Taiwan Stock Exchange in 2016. At the same time, the Bank was also evaluated as top 5% among Taiwan listed companies in corporate governance by Taiwan Stock Exchange in 2016, which represented an acknowledgment of the Bank’s sound management practices in a number of aspects including corporate governance, finance, business growth, and solid operation. We would like to thank all our shareholders for their long-term support and encouragement. In the future, the Bank will continue to strive for excellence. The details of the 2016 business results of the Bank, the 2017 Annual Business Plan, the Future Development Strategy, and the impact of the external competitive environment, the regulatory environment and the overall business environment and the latest credit rating are summarized as follows: A. 2016 Results of Operations a.

Figures released by Global Insight Inc. indicate that global economic performance nevertheless remained stable during the year, with the rate of economic growth reaching 3.8%--only marginally lower than the 3.9% recorded in 2006. Following its outbreak last August, the negative influence of the subprime housing loan crisis in the U.S. spread rapidly throughout the world and, despite the threat of inflation, the U.S. Federal Reserve lowered interest rates three times before the end of 2007, bringing the federal funds rate down from 5.25% to 4.25%, in an attempt to avoid a slowdown in economic growth and alleviate the credit crunch.

The Nationalist Party first defined the Incident as a rebellion by pro-Japanese forces and communist saboteurs. As the enemy of the Nationalist Party in China’s Civil War (1946-1949), the Chinese Communist Party initially interpreted the Incident as a Taiwanese fight for political autonomy in the party’s wartime propaganda, and then reinterpreted the event as an anti-Nationalist uprising under its own leadership.

  • The Birth of Chinese Feminism Columbia & Ko, Eds
    & liu e-yin zHen (1886–1920?) was a theo- ko Hrist who figured centrally in the birth , karl of Chinese feminism. Unlike her contem- , poraries, she was concerned less with China’s eds fate as a nation and more with the relation- . , ship among patriarchy, imperialism, capi- talism, and gender subjugation as global historical problems. This volume, the first translation and study of He-Yin’s work in English, critically reconstructs early twenti- eth-century Chinese feminist thought in a transnational context by juxtaposing He-Yin The Bir Zhen’s writing against works by two better- known male interlocutors of her time. The editors begin with a detailed analysis of He-Yin Zhen’s life and thought. They then present annotated translations of six of her major essays, as well as two foundational “The Birth of Chinese Feminism not only sheds light T on the unique vision of a remarkable turn-of- tracts by her male contemporaries, Jin h of Chinese the century radical thinker but also, in so Tianhe (1874–1947) and Liang Qichao doing, provides a fresh lens through which to (1873–1929), to which He-Yin’s work examine one of the most fascinating and com- responds and with which it engages.
