• According to Capgemini’s World Wealth Report (2012), the total investable wealth of high-net-worth individuals in Africa totalled US$ 1.1 trillion in 2011. To put this into perspective, this compares with US$ 1.7 trillion for high-net-worth consumers in the Middle East. South Africa and, most recently, Nigeria are regarded as the jewels in the African crown.(Inka Crosswaite)
• Determinants of the Impact Cost of Nifty Shares The degree of market efficiency in a market is closely related to the impact costs faced in trading in the market: lower impact costs are associated with enhanced levels of market efficiency. Theoretically, there are many variables which affect the levels of the impact cost over a period of time (time series analysis) as well as across the companies, sectors, and economy at any given point of time( cross-section analysis).( Srinivas Shirur)
