Summary of half-year operations The Banca Generali Group closed the first half of 2019 with consolidated net profit of 132.8 mil- lion euros and total net inflows of over 2.8 billion euros, bringing the total volume of the assets entrusted by customers to the Banking Group for management to 62.9 billion euros (+9.3% com- pared to the end of 2018). Assets growth in the reporting period continued to focus primarily on AUC (1.6 billion euros) and traditional insurance policies (0.8 billion euros), which best mirrored the persistently ex- tremely prudent customer attitude. The significant increase in the liquid component of net inflows (1.0 billion euros) also reflected the contribution arising from the acquisition of new clients, who currently prefer to await the most appropriate moment for planning decisions. Among managed products, mention should be made of the excellent response to the new sub- funds of the Luxembourg-based Sicav Lux IM, launched in April 2018, which has now reached an AUM volume of 8.7 billion euros, marking an increase of over 123% on the end of the first quarter of 2018. In addition, Assets under Advisory amounted to 4.0 billion euros, with an increase ex- ceeding 1.7 billion euros in the current year. Net banking income reached 272.7 million euros, up by 22.1% on the same period of 2018, due in part to the financial market uptrend, which fuelled the contribution of the most volatile compo- nent, i.e., performance fees (+48.2 million euros). Net financial income – the sum of net interest income and net income from trading activities and dividends – declined sharply (-9.0 million euros) compared to the first half of 2018, which had benefited from the banking book de-risking strategy. The decline in net income from trading activities was offset by the significant improvement in net interest income, driven by the sharp rise in yields on Italian government bonds seen starting in the second quarter of 2018 (+25.8%, gross of the effects of the transition to IFRS 16). Operating expenses amounted to 100.9 million euros, increasing compared to the same period of the previous year (+7.7%). The increase was tied to the Bank's pronounced efforts to expedite all of its current strategic projects. This item includes the impact of some one-off components relating to the relocation of the administrative offices and the recent acquisitions for a total of 2.6 million euros, partially offset by the application of the new accounting standard IFRS 16, which contributed 0.7 million euros in terms of operating expenses. Net of these effects, which also include charges associated with the Saxo project, operating expenses reported a 5.7% change, in line with the Bank’s guidance, which calls for an increase of core operating expenses in the range of 3-5%1 for the three-year period 2019-2021. With reference to capital, Banca Generali confirmed the soundness of its regulatory aggregates. CET1 ratio reached 15.7% and Total Capital ratio was 17.1%. It should be noted that the transition to IFRS 16 entailed an adverse effect on the TCR of approx- imately 87 bps due to the recognition of the new RWAs represented by the rights of use, whereas the exclusion from own funds of the retained portion of half-yearly net profit, in accordance with the new dividend policy, resulted in an additional effect that may be estimated at approximately 83 bps.

    Transalpine Pass Routes in the Swiss Central Alps and the Strategic Use of Topographic Resources

    Preistoria Alpina, 42 (2007): 109-118 ISSN 09-0157 © Museo Tridentino di Scienze Naturali, Trento 2007 Transalpine pass routes in the Swiss Central Alps and the strategic use of topographic resources Philippe DELLA CASA Department of Pre-/Protohistory, University of Zurich, Karl-Schmid-Str. ���������������������������4, 8006 Zurich, Switzerland E-mail: [email protected] SUMMARY - Transalpine pass routes in the Swiss Central Alps and the strategic use of topographic resources - Using examples from the San Bernardino and the St. Gotthard passes in the Swiss Central Alps, this paper discusses how the existence of transalpine high altitude pass routes can be inferred, even though there is a lack physical evidence, from specific Bronze and Iron Age settlement patterns in access valleys. Particular attention is given to the effect of topography within the territorial and economic organizational area on transalpine tracks and traffic routes. A set of recurring patterns, such as strategic position, natural and/or artificial protection, presence of “foreign” materials, can help identifying (settlement) sites with particular functions as regards traffic and trade within the systems of territorial organization. Moreover, the paper also addresses socio-dynamic issues of the problem of transalpine pass routes. RIASSUNTO - Passi transalpini nelle Alpi Centrali Svizzere e uso strategico di risorse topografiche -Usando esempi dal Passo di San Bernardino e dal Passo del San Gottardo nelle Alpi Centrali Svizzere, il presente contributo discute come l’esistenza di vie di transito transalpine d’alta quota possa essere dedotta, anche mancando evidenze fisiche, da specifici modelli insediativi dell’età del Bronzo e del Ferro presenti nelle valli di accesso.

Introduction 2. The origin of the project and the stakeholders involved 3. The history of the project 4. Criminal infiltration and high-speed railway in the media 5. References 1. Introduction The history of the project of the New Railway Line Turin-Lyon, shortened as NLTL and currently known as high-speed train Turin- Lyon (named TAV Turin-Lyon), saw a lot of stakeholders that interacted, exchanged, conflicted and overlapped. The first part of this paper aims at understanding the evolution/origin of the project in order to clarify the role of the Italian and French stakeholders involved. Then, the paper continues with the description of the main steps of the history of TAV project. In these steps will be underlined the moments in which some stakeholders have been involved in incidents of lawlessness and corruption. 2. The origin of the project and stakeholders involved 2.1 The Italian stakeholders The project for the TAV Turin-Lyon involved many Italian stakeholders, institutional and not. First of all in 1989 the Associazione Tecnocity2 presented in a public meeting at the Fondazione Agnelli the project of a high-speed railway line for passengers between France and Italy. The project foresees the construction of a transalpine tunnel 50 km long as a part of the future railway line between East and West Europe (Number Five Corridor3).

  • European Train Names: a Historic Outline Christian Weyers

    European Train Names: a Historic Outline Christian Weyers

    ONOMÀSTICA BIBLIOTECA TÈCNICA DE POLÍTICA LINGÜÍSTICA European Train Names: a Historic Outline* Christian Weyers DOI: 10.2436/15.8040.01.201 Abstract This paper gives a first overview of the onomastic category of train names, searches to classify the corpus and reviews different stages of their productivity. Apart from geographical names (toponyms, choronyms, compass directions) generally indicating points of origin and destination of the trains in question, a considerable number of personal names have entered this category, of classical literary authors, musicians and scientists, but also of many fictional or non-fictional characters taken from literature or legendary traditions. In some cases also certain symbolic attributes of these persons and finally even heraldic figures have given their names to trains. In terms of their functionality, train names originally were an indicator of exclusiveness and high grade of travel quality, but they developed gradually, as they dispersed over the European continent, into a rather unspecific, generalized appellation, also for regional and local trains. After two periods of prosperity after 1950, the privatisation of railway companies starting in the 1990s had again a very positive effect on the category, as the number of named trains initially reached a new record in this decade. ***** The first train names appeared in England in the 1860s in addition to names for steam locomotives, and on two different levels. The Special Scotch Express between London King’s Cross and Edinburgh (inaugurated in 1862) was called by the public The Flying Scotsman from the 1870s, but it succeeded as the official name not before 1924. Also the names of the German diesel trainsets Der Fliegende Hamburger and Der Fliegende Kölner were colloquial name creations, as were the Train Bleu and the Settebello operated from 1922 and 1953 but officially named in 1947 and 1958, respectively.
