  • SM Bruce: the Businessman As Treasurer
    SM Bruce: the businessman as Treasurer John Hawkins1 Stanley Melbourne Bruce, a wealthy businessman with an aristocratic air, served as Treasurer in 1922, bringing down one budget, during his meteoric rise to the prime ministership. He stressed the need to bring ‘businesslike’ practices into government and promote development under his slogan ‘men, money and markets’. A number of commissions and inquiries were set up to inform policymaking, and Bruce looked favourably on establishing independent boards to manage some government operations. Bruce established a sinking fund to retire the debt accumulated during the First World War. He also tried to rationalise industrial relations arrangements. Source: National Library of Australia. 1 The first draft of this article was prepared when the author was in the Domestic Economy Division, the Australian Treasury. He thanks Anthony Goldbloom for assistance in tracking down references from The Economist, and for helpful comments. The views in this article are those of the author and not necessarily those of the Australian Treasury. 71 SM Bruce: the businessman as Treasurer Introduction Stanley Melbourne Bruce PC CH MC, later Viscount Bruce of Melbourne, preferred to be known as ’SM’ than ’Stanley’. (He was never called ’Stan’.) His wealth and interests set him apart from the average Australian.2 Even at the time, he seemed like he had stepped out of a Wodehouse novel. He was the only Prime Minister to come to the job already with a valet, a butler and a chauffeur-driven Rolls Royce. His sports were riding, rowing, golf and royal tennis. He was always immaculately attired, and had impeccable manners and what some regarded as matinee idol looks.

  • 1 21/10/2016 “We Will End up Being a Third Rate Economy …A Banana Republic”: How Behavioural Economics Can Improve Macroec
    1 Australian Economic Review Forthcoming 21/10/2016 “We will end up being a third rate economy …a banana republic”: How behavioural economics can improve macroeconomic outcomes Ian M McDonald University of Melbourne Abstract To address the economic problems facing Australia in 1986 required wage restraint which required in turn overcoming loss aversion by workers with respect to their wages. The Prices and Incomes Accord was able to do this. Attempts to address Australia’s current economic problems are stymied by tax resistance. Addressing tax resistance requires overcoming loss aversion by voters with respect to their post-tax incomes. The success of the Accord suggests that Accord-type policies could reduce tax resistance by broadening people’s perspective beyond their post-tax incomes to the broader spread of benefits for them and others. Short abstract The Prices and Incomes Accord overcame loss aversion and delivered wage restraint. Can Accord-like policies overcome loss aversion and deliver the increases in taxation that will address Australia’s current economic challenges? 2 “We will end up being a third rate economy …a banana republic”: How behavioural economics can improve macroeconomic outcomes 1 Ian M McDonald University of Melbourne 30 years ago, faced with a large fall in the terms of trade occurring in a situation of high unemployment, high inflation, a high government budget deficit and a high current account deficit, Paul Keating, the Treasurer of Australia, warned the public that Australia faced the prospect of becoming a banana republic.2 Keating's iconic statement arose in the context of an elaborate economic program, called The Prices and Incomes Accord, aimed at improving Australia's economic performance.

  • Howard Government Retrospective II “To the Brink: 1997 - 2001” Old Parliament House 14-15 November 2017 Howard Government Retrospective II
    Howard Government Retrospective II “To the brink: 1997 - 2001” Old Parliament House 14-15 November 2017 Howard Government Retrospective II Conference Broadcast Partner: 2 University of New South Wales Canberra To the brink: 1997 - 2001 The Howard Government Retrospective Conference Series he Liberal-National Party Coalition was elected Tto office on 2 March 1996 and continued in power until 24 November 2007. UNSW Canberra is holding a series of retrospective conferences to assess the performance of the four Howard Governments. Each event provides the basis for collections of essays contributed by principal participants, key public servants, leading commentators and notable scholars drawing on documents in the John Howard Collection held at the Defence Force Academy Library. The intention is for this series to become the ‘standard’ treatment of the Howard years. Contributors have been asked to focus critically on the Coalition’s policies and performance to reveal the Government’s shortcomings and failures. This commitment to a candid critique will attract the attention of the press and current-serving politicians, guaranteeing the volumes a substantial public profile at the time of their release. UNSW Press is the series publisher. The first conference and volume covered the 1996 election, the Coalition’s readiness for office, the main policy decisions and practical challenges of the first year of the Howard Government, including gun control and ministerial responsibility. The second conference and volume deals with the second and third years of the Coalition’s first term in office (1997-98) and most of its second term (1998-2001). Volume II will include coverage of Wik and native title, the Patricks waterfront dispute, the constitutional convention, the Coalition’s near defeat at the 1998 poll, the Government’s response to post-independence violence in East Timor, and the introduction of the GST.

Chang-kwean Kim +822-768-4321 [email protected] Global expansion efforts beginning to bear fruit Jee-hyun Moon SM Entertainment (SM) is growing as a global player in the music industry, tapping +822-768-3615 into the European, North American, and South American markets (on top of the [email protected] Asian market). Indeed, songs, music videos, and concert footage featuring SM artists are spreading around the world through social media websites such as YouTube and Facebook. The global music market should offer numerous new opportunities to SM, especially considering the companyÊs content development capability has proven to be superior to that of its domestic rivals. Maintain Buy rating with TP of W30,000 Buy (Maintain) SMÊs shares have remained stagnant since early this year, due to: ① low earnings Target Price (12M, W) 30,000 predictability (earnings are dependant on the success/failure of songs); ② Share Price (06/23/11, W) 18,900 uncontrollable risks inherent to the industry (scandals, etc.); ③ sell-offs by large Expected Return (%) 58.7 shareholders; and ④ deterioration of quarterly earnings. However, we expect the EPS Growth (11F, %) -32.9 stock to break out of its current trading range, given the companyÊs Japanese Market EPS Growth (11F, %) 23.4 earnings momentum. P/E (11F, x) 21.0 Market P/E (11F, x) 10.4 The surprising success of SMÊs artists in Japan should translate into full-swing KOSDAQ 464.62 earnings growth in 2012.
