  • The Profitable and Untethered March to Global Resource Dominance!
    Athens Journal of Business and Economics X Y GlencoreXstrata… The Profitable and Untethered March to Global Resource Dominance! By Nina Aversano Titos Ritsatos† Motivated by the economic causes and effects of their merger in 2013, we study the expansion strategy deployment of Glencore International plc. and Xstrata plc., before and after their merger. While both companies went through a series of international acquisitions during the last decade, their merger is strengthening effective vertical integration in critical resource and commodity markets, following Hymer’s theory of internationalization and Dunning’s theory of Eclectic Paradigm. Private existence of global dominant positioning in vital resource markets, posits economic sustainability and social fairness questions on an international scale. Glencore is alleged to have used unethical business tactics, increasing corruption, tax evasion and money laundering, while attracting the attention of human rights organizations. Since the announcement of their intended merger, the company’s market performance has been lower than its benchmark index. Glencore’s and Xstrata’s economic success came from operating effectively and efficiently in markets that scare off risk-averse companies. The new GlencoreXstrata is not the same company anymore. The Company’s new capital structure is characterized by controlling presence of institutional investors, creating adherence to corporate governance and increased monitoring and transparency. Furthermore, when multinational corporations like GlencoreXstrata increase in size attracting the attention of global regulation, they are forced by institutional monitoring to increase social consciousness. When ensuring full commitment to social consciousness acting with utmost concern with regard to their commitment by upholding rules and regulations of their home or host country, they have but to become “quasi-utilities” for the global industry.

  • Enhance Innovation and Agility with Digital Twins Executive Summary
    Enhance innovation and agility with Digital Twins Executive Summary There’s no denying we live in uncertain and rapidly changing times and companies are looking for every opportunity to become more agile. Digital twins is a rapidly emerging technology that delivers to this end. Not to be confused as a mere dashboard, a digital twin is a virtual replica of a physical object, machine part, system, process or entire lifecycle. Digital twin technology enables real-time monitoring and control, the ability to learn with AI and ML, to autonomously update, self-heal, and even improve systems and designs over time. This paper seeks to achieve four objectives. First, to help the reader understand Digital twin technology and its potential. Second, to provide a structured way of looking at the various use cases and applications of this technology. Third, to feature Microsoft partners who have differentiated capabilities that bring digital twin visions to life. Fourth, to discuss the Azure Digital Twin platform and other investments from Microsoft in this space. Digital twin technology is commonly applied to manufacturing across key applications that span manufacturing scenarios/use-cases. The priority scenarios, or use cases, as they relate in Manufacturing are 1) Product, 2) Factory, 3) Supply Chain, and 4) Spaces. The top applications include configuration management, asset management, process control, performance management and simulation modeling. Configuration management tracks bills of materials, around assets as designed, manufactured, configured, and maintained. E.g. For complex & expensive assets like aircrafts this information is typically maintained by tail number. Asset management deals with telemetry of an asset itself and gives insight in to how something is working.

  • Finn-Ancial Times Finncap Financials & Insurance Quarterly Sector Note
    finn-ancial Times finnCap Financials & Insurance quarterly sector note Q3 2020 | Issue 9 Highlights this quarter: Elevated uncertainty and volatility have been hallmarks of the last 18 months, with Brexit, the UK General Election and more recently COVID-19 all contributing to the challenges that face investors wishing to carve out solid and stable returns amid these ‘unprecedented’ times. With this is mind, and simulating finnCap’s proven Slide Rule methodology, we found the highest quality and lowest value stocks across the financials space, assessing how the make-up of these lists changed over the period January 2019 to July 2020, tracking indexed share price performance over the period as well as movements in P/E and EV/EBIT valuations. The top quartile list of Quality companies outperformed both the Value list and the FTSE All Share by rising +2.5% over the period versus -5.4% for the All Share and -14.3% for Value stocks. Furthermore, the Quality list had protection on the downside in the market crash between February and March 2020, and accelerated faster amid the market rally between late March and July 2020. From high to low (January to March), Quality moved -36.3% against the Value list at -45.5%, while a move off the lows to July was +37.4% for Quality and +34.0% for Value. There was some crossover between the Quality and Value lists, with 7 companies of the top quartile (16 companies in total) appearing in both the Quality and Value lists. This meant that a) investors could capture what we call ‘Quality at Value’ (i.e.
