    Gold & Silver Buyer’s Guide Inc. SINCE 1973 Precious Metals Buyer’s Guide Gold and silver are two of the most conservative investments you can make. However, if you buy the wrong form, you could lose 30% to 50% immediately. There are various forms of gold and silver, but the first thing to know is that YOU WANT BULLION, not numismatic/collectible coins that are hyped on radio and TV. With bullion, you pay the smallest mark-up over the current value of the gold/silver content. In short, you get more metal for your money. The commonly-promoted numismatic/collectible coins on radio/TV easily carry premiums of 30% to 50% and sometimes two to three times the value of the gold/silver content. Gold bullion comes in two forms: bullion coins and bullion bars. GOLD 1-oz. American Gold Eagle bullion coins Gold bullion coins are produced by various government mints, including the U.S. Mint, the Royal Canadian Mint, Australia’s Perth Mint and the Austrian Mint. 1-oz. Canadian Gold Maple Leaf 1-oz. American Gold Eagles are the world’s most popular gold bullion coins; they also come in ½-oz., ¼-oz. and 1/10-oz. coins. Because Gold Eagles are alloyed coins, 91.67% pure (22-karat), they weigh slightly more than their stamped weights. Be assured that a 1-oz. Gold Eagle contains one ounce of gold, and a ½-oz. Gold Eagle contains one-half ounce of gold, etc. 1-oz. Australian Gold Kangaroo 1-oz.

    NBER WORKING PAPER SERIES WHY DIDTHEBANK OF CANADA EMERGE IN 1935? Michael Bordo Angela Redish Working Paper No. 2079 NATIONAL BUREAU OF ECONOMIC RESEARCH 1050 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA 02138 November 1986 The research reported here is part of the NBER's research program in Financial Markets and Monetary Economics. Any opinions expressed are those of the authors and not those of the National Bureau of Economic Research. NBER Working Paper #2079 November 1986 Why Did the Bank of Canada Emerge in 1935? ABSTRACT Three possible explanations for the emergence of the Canadian central bank in 1935 are examined: that it reflected the need of competitive banking systems for a lender of the last resort; that it was necessary to anchor the unregulated Canadian monetary system after the abandonment of the gold standard in 1929; and that it was a response to political rather than purely economic pressures. Evidence from a variety of sources (contemporary statements to a Royal Comission, the correspondence of chartered bankers, newspaper reports, academic writings and the estimation of time series econometric models) rejects the first two hypotheses and supports the third.

  • The National Bank of Canada Accelerates Deployments at Scale
    The National Bank of Canada Accelerates Deployments at Scale About National Bank Executive Summary of Canada The National Bank of Canada (NBC), the country’s sixth-largest commercial bank, set out to transform its infrastructure for speed and scale. NBC’s ultimate goal was to dedicate more of the organization’s time and resources to business innovation instead of infrastructure management. By shifting away from an on-premises installation of its core trading solution, Murex’s MX.3 platform, the bank was able to provision new instances in minutes instead of months and gain better visibility into costs. NBC now runs its non-production MX.3 environments exclusively on Amazon EC2 instances. A Commercial Bank Seeks an Easier-to-Manage Solution The National Bank of Canada (NBC), one of Canada’s largest financial services organizations, wanted to optimize its existing on-premises installation of MX.3, an open platform from Murex that supports trading, treasury, risk, and post-trade operations. The National Bank of Canada Across the numerous projects in parallel, MX.3 ran on more than 100 servers in the bank’s own data center. NBC spent significant time and resources managing and upgrading this (NBC) is the sixth-largest on-premises infrastructure, making deployments of new installations a complex, nearly commercial bank in Canada, impossible process. “We wanted to scale the infrastructure to provision environments to with 2.4 million customers meet growing business needs. The business continued to enhance MX.3 and create new and branches in most projects, but it typically took weeks or months to order, procure, and implement new Canadian provinces.
