We trace the development of model risk management in U.S. banking against the backdrop of the growing importance of complex financial models in banks, the recognition of model risk, the emergence of model validation as a response to model risk, and the contribution of failures in model risk management to the Great Financial Crisis. We recognize that while substantial progress has been made in the management of model risk, the challenges have grown, including the increasing reliance by the regulators on models.

Endowment payouts have become an increasingly important component of universities'' revenues in recent decades. We test two leading theories of endowment payouts: (1) universities smooth endowment payouts, or (2) universities use endowments as self-insurance against financial shocks. In contrast to both theories, endowments actively reduce payouts relative to their stated payout policies following negative, but not positive, shocks. This asymmetric behavior is consistent with "endowment hoarding," especially among endowments with values close to the benchmark value at the start of the university president''s tenure. We also document the effect of negative endowment shocks on university operations, including personnel cuts.

La trilogie des petites amies de Jeffrey Brown. Contraction de ''Any easy Intimacy of Us'' (fragments de notre intimité) il évoque les voyelles d’un alphabet amoureux dont Jeff et Sophia font l’apprentissage. Sur le même principe, de micro scènes extraites du quotidien, Jeffrey Brown construit une histoire en pointillés, alternant sélectionnant des moments clés ou des détails, mais qui additionnés les uns aux autres restituent l’essence de la relation amoureuse.

"The thesis describes a computer program (FASTP), written for the DOS environment and based on finite difference algorithms, which can be used to solve both transient heat and mass transfer problems. Relatively simple geometries can be used as building blocks to model problems in cartesian, cylindrical, and spherical coordinate systems. The user can model diffusion behavior through any material provided the relevant material properties are known. A completely menu driven system allows for the specification of a number of boundary conditions including convection, constant or zero flux, and radiation. Heat generation or mass accumulation, as well as interboundary resistance or partition coefficient terms can also be assigned. The program can also be used to model phase transformations and the effects of mixing in liquid systems. The results of several problems run on FASTP have been documented in this report and are shown to compare favourably with results generated from mathematically exact solutions." --

Roan Novachez achou que seu segundo ano na Academia Jedi ia ser fácil, e foi no começo.
