Since the spring (309) 438-8777 and fall of 2008, you get the sense that significant financial history is happening.

These blind spots put (309) 438-7991 a premium on thinking critically about financial decisions and economic condi- [email protected] tions.

The questions alone merit open discussion in class. [email protected] Students must come to realize that nothing is cast in concrete in a dynamic system except a few enduring truths. One truth is the law of unintended Student president consequences, which is evidenced both by Adam Smith’s invisible hand of Collin Geninatti competition and by a government mandate (circa 2000) to increase mortgage [email protected] lending by Freddie and Fannie, as examples.

  • Your Growth Is Our Business
    YOUR GROWTH IS OUR BUSINESS TRIENNIAL REPORT 2014-2016 MESSAGE Emilia DiMenco President and Chief Executive Officer A heartfelt thanks to you for your participation in our collective accomplishments over the past 30 years! Working together, we have helped some 78,000 women business owners become more economically empowered. Over the last few years, we have significantly enhanced the methods, channels, technology, programs, and support services for women business owners and other underserved communities - minorities and veterans - seeking to start and grow businesses. Investments you have made have allowed us to improve and expand the programs and services we provide, including our digital presence. We have enhanced our website and developed an online/on-demand learning portal. This has enabled our clients to work with us remotely and use applications to simplify the way they develop their business plans and financial forecasts, market their products and services, and gain access to resources that can help them grow their ventures. But in spite of the significant progress that we have been honored to help fuel, there is still plenty of work to be done. Women, minority, and veteran business owners remain underrepresented and are underserved for economic benefits. This limits their opportunities for growth and success, which, in turn, impacts all of us – entire communities and our country! So it is time for us to ‘double-down’ on our collective responsibility to do all we can so that women, minority, and veteran business owners are represented and have equal opportunities to participate in every facet and at every level of our economy.

  • 2019 Insurance Fact Book
    2019 Insurance Fact Book TO THE READER Imagine a world without insurance. Some might say, “So what?” or “Yes to that!” when reading the sentence above. And that’s understandable, given that often the best experience one can have with insurance is not to receive the benefits of the product at all, after a disaster or other loss. And others—who already have some understanding or even appreciation for insurance—might say it provides protection against financial aspects of a premature death, injury, loss of property, loss of earning power, legal liability or other unexpected expenses. All that is true. We are the financial first responders. But there is so much more. Insurance drives economic growth. It provides stability against risks. It encourages resilience. Recent disasters have demonstrated the vital role the industry plays in recovery—and that without insurance, the impact on individuals, businesses and communities can be devastating. As insurers, we know that even with all that we protect now, the coverage gap is still too big. We want to close that gap. That desire is reflected in changes to this year’s Insurance Information Institute (I.I.I.)Insurance Fact Book. We have added new information on coastal storm surge risk and hail as well as reinsurance and the growing problem of marijuana and impaired driving. We have updated the section on litigiousness to include tort costs and compensation by state, and assignment of benefits litigation, a growing problem in Florida. As always, the book provides valuable information on: • World and U.S. catastrophes • Property/casualty and life/health insurance results and investments • Personal expenditures on auto and homeowners insurance • Major types of insurance losses, including vehicle accidents, homeowners claims, crime and workplace accidents • State auto insurance laws The I.I.I.

  • Empowering Young People to Own Their Economic Success
    Empowering young people to own their economic success Mission Report 2012-2013 Inspiring and preparing young people to succeed in a global economy. Dear Partner, As our nation focuses its attention on ways to create jobs and spur economic growth, Junior Achievement (JA) continues to expand the depth and reach of its programs. We have done so by providing 149,500 young people with relevant, experiential learning opportunities centered on financial literacy, college and career readiness and entrepreneurship. JA’s unique approach relies on volunteers from the community who deliver our curriculum while sharing their experiences with students. The dynamic interaction between students, educators and volunteers promotes active learning while bringing theory to life. The JA experience establishes the foundation on which young people can build the skills and attitudes necessary to succeed in a fast-paced world. The case for JA has never been stronger and we are excited to build on the success of this past year with a focus for the future on the following: • Strengthen economic literacy by delivering elementary programs sequentially with school districts committed to long-term partnerships. • Accelerate growth of our high school programs to enhance student skills in financial literacy, college and career readiness and entrepreneurship. • Partner to reach students out of school, expanding the learning day and providing students with experiences that promote their roles as citizens, consumers and workers. • Grow our capstone programs (JA BizTown, JA Finance Park, JA Company Program, JA Job Shadow and JA Titan) to equip students with 21st century skills that will benefit them in the real world.
