INDUSTRY CHARACTERISTICS MARKET DRIVERS The rail transportation market is supported by solid long-term drivers. Sustainable development Urbanisation creates a growing demand for infrastructure, rolling stock (especially for integrated solutions) and signalling notably in emerging Greenhouse gas emissions, impact of air pollution on public health, countries. Mature markets, on the other hand, are mainly supported by climate change, recycling, recovery, energy efficiency and noise projects aiming at updating and modernising existing infrastructure and constitute some of the most significant environmental and sustainable rolling stock, as well as by growing environmental concerns. development concerns currently voiced by populations and politicians.

  • Devoir De Vigilance: Reforming Corporate Risk Engagement
    Devoir de Vigilance: Reforming Corporate Risk Engagement Copyright © Development International e.V., 2020 ISBN: 978-3-9820398-5-5 Authors: Juan Ignacio Ibañez, LL.M. Chris N. Bayer, PhD Jiahua Xu, PhD Anthony Cooper, J.D. Title: Devoir de Vigilance: Reforming Corporate Risk Engagement Date published: 9 June 2020 Funded by: iPoint-systems GmbH www.ipoint-systems.com 1 “Liberty consists of being able to do anything that does not harm another.” Article 4, Declaration of the Rights of the Man and of the Citizen of 1789, France 2 Executive Summary The objective of this systematic investigation is to gain a better understanding of how the 134 confirmed in-scope corporations are complying with – and implementing – France’s progressive Devoir de Vigilance law (LOI n° 2017-399 du 27 Mars 2017).1 We ask, in particular, what subject companies are doing to identify and mitigate social and environmental risk/impact factors in their operations, as well as for their subsidiaries, suppliers, and subcontractors. This investigation also aims to determine practical steps taken regarding the requirements of the law, i.e. how the corporations subject to the law are meeting these new requirements. Devoir de Vigilance is at the legislative forefront of the business and human rights movement. A few particular features of the law are worth highlighting. Notably, it: ● imposes a duty of vigilance (devoir de vigilance) which consists of a substantial standard of care and mandatory due diligence, as such distinct from a reporting requirement; ● sets a public reporting requirement for the vigilance plan and implementation report (compte rendu) on top of the substantial duty of vigilance; ● strengthens the accountability of parent companies for the actions of subsidiaries; ● encourages subject companies to develop their vigilance plan in association with stakeholders in society; ● imposes civil liability in case of non-compliance; ● allows stakeholders with a legitimate interest to seek injunctive relief in the case of a violation of the law.

  • EVALUATION of the RISKS of COLLECTIVE DOMINANCE in the AUDIT INDUSTRY in FRANCE Olivier Billard* Bredin Prat Marc Ivaldi* Toulou
    EVALUATION OF THE RISKS OF COLLECTIVE DOMINANCE IN THE AUDIT INDUSTRY IN FRANCE Olivier Billard* Bredin Prat Marc Ivaldi* Toulouse School of Economics Sébastien Mitraille* Toulouse Business School (University of Toulouse) May 18, 2011 (revised June 7, 2012) Summary: The financial crisis drew attention to the crucial role of transparency and the independence of financial certification intermediaries, in particular, statutory auditors. Now any anticompetitive practice involving coordinated increases in prices or concomitant changes in quality that impacts financial information affects the effectiveness of this intermediation. It is therefore not surprising that the competitive analysis of the audit market is a critical factor in regulating financial systems, all the more so as this market is marked by various barriers to entry, such as the incompatibility of certification tasks with the preparation of financial statements or consulting, the expertise on (and the ability to apply) international standards for the presentation of financial information, the need to attract top young graduates, the prohibition of advertising, or the two-sided nature of this market where the quality of financial information results from the interaction between the reputation of auditors and audited firms. Against this backdrop, we propose a legal and economic study of the risks of collective dominance in the statutory audit market in France using the criteria set by Airtours case and, in particular, by analyzing how regulatory obligations incumbent on statutory auditors may favour the appearance of tacit collusion. Our analysis suggests that nothing prevents collective dominance of the auditors of the Big Four group in France to exist, which is potentially detrimental to the economy as a whole as the audit industry may fail to provide the optimal level of financial information.

  • Véhicule Automatique Léger
    Véhicule automatique léger Véhicule automatique léger (VAL, deutsch: „leichtes automatisches Fahrzeug“) ist ein besonders leicht gebautes, fahrerloses, spurgeführtes Personennahverkehrsmittel, das sowohl als Peoplemover z. B. in Flughäfen als auch als Stadtschnellbahnsystem eingesetzt wird. Ursprünglich von Matra entwickelt, ist VAL heute ein Produkt von Siemens Mobility. Inhaltsverzeichnis Technik VAL 208 (links) und VAL 206 der Neoval Métro Lille Cityval Airval Installationen Fahrzeugtypen Projekte Galerie Siehe auch Einzelnachweise Weblinks Technik Die Trag- und Antriebsfunktion wird durch gummibereifte Räder auf einem Betonfahrweg ausgeübt. Seitliche Führungsräder rollen an seitlich angebrachten Führungsschienen entlang. An Stellen, wo die seitlichen Führungsschienen unterbrochen sind, wie beispielsweise in Weichen, übernehmen Führungsschienen in der Fahrwegmitte die seitliche Führung. Die Val 206 der Metro Toulouse auf der Weichenfunktion wird durch eine einzelne Führungsschienen übernehmen die Linie A Zunge zwischen den Führungsschienen seitliche Führung in einer Weiche – realisiert, in etwa vergleichbar mit einer hier OrlyVAL. beweglichen Herzstückspitze in Weichen von Zweischienenbahnen. Das System basiert auf einer Erfindung von Professor Robert Gabillard (Université Lille Nord de France) und wurde Anfang der 1980er Jahre von der Firma Matra Transport entwickelt. Die Abteilung Verkehrstechnik von Matra gehört seit 2001 vollständig zu Siemens Transportation Systems. Erstmals angewendet wurde das VAL-System 1983 bei der damals neu gebauten Métro Lille. Es eignet sich aufgrund der geringeren Kosten besonders gut für mittelgroße Städte. Das Akronym bedeutete ursprünglich Villeneuve-d’Ascq à Lille (deutsch: „Villeneuve-d’Ascq nach Lille“) und bezeichnete die beiden Endpunkte der ersten Strecke. Erst später wurde daraus véhicule automatique léger. Wie auch bei einigen anderen fahrerlosen Personenbeförderungssystemen sind die Bahnsteige beim VAL-System durch transparente Glaswände mit eingelassenen Bahnsteigtüren von den Gleisen getrennt.
