The six big risks for 2021 – Healix Risk Oracle report for 2021 identifies six key risks beyond the pandemic

LONDON, Jan. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — International risk management and assistance expert, Healix International, has identified six key areas of risk – besides the continued impact of COVID-19 – for global organisations in its 2021 Risk Oracle report.

LONDON, Jan. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — International risk management and assistance expert, Healix International, has identified six key areas of risk – besides the continued impact of COVID-19 – for global organisations in its 2021 Risk Oracle report.

  1. Natural Disasters – The increasing frequency of extreme weather events with natural disasters becoming more pronounced both in terms of frequency and severity. Building resilience to natural disasters is a significant exercise.
  2. Faceless Threats – In a context of increased isolationism, and more time spent online, individuals will become increasingly disconnected from normative community activity with a comparative increase in crime and incidents of violence perpetrated by ‘faceless’ lone actors.
  3. Supply Chain Disruption – The highly complex logistical webs that make up the global economy have predominantly been designed with cost and efficiency in mind. Unless resilience starts to be factored into these considerations, disruption to supply chains will remain a significant operational risk factor.
  4. Cyber Attacks – No longer just an inconvenience, they are potentially calamitous. More worrisome, attacks targeting government infrastructure are on the rise, and any cyber breaches in this space could have unprecedented implications.
  5. Decay of the ‘social contract’ – Mounting frustrations over inequality, cynicism of perceived corrupt political elites, and distrust of wider civil society including the media and big business amid the pandemic of ‘Fake News’ are likely to lead to increased public agitation and worsening levels of political cohesion.
  6. Erosion of domestic political cohesion fuelled by social media – Complex political issues find themselves being misrepresented in the form of a ‘post’, ‘share’, or ‘tweet’. This dynamic will become more prevalent in 2021 and result in even more social and political divisiveness, with rising levels of political risk in locations where the ‘culture war’ is most pronounced.

As Chris Job MBE, Director, Risk Management Services, Healix International explains, it is vital for organisations with an international footprint to ensure that the myriad of risks beyond the coronavirus remain a focus. «2021 is likely to be as busy a year for challenging global events, some predictable and some unprecedented. Overlay this expectation with a new and as yet undefined normal and a global drive for economic growth, the need for robust organisational resilience plans is clear. The key now is to ensure consistent and reliable monitoring is combined with access to the most appropriate resources to ensure employee wellbeing remains the priority.»

«With our deep-rooted, in-house medical and security expertise underpinned by modern technology, Healix offers a single-source comprehensive, compelling and powerful risk solution for 2021 and beyond.»

DataLend: $7.66 Billion in Revenue Generated in Lender-to-Broker Securities Lending Market in 2020

NEW YORK, Jan. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The global securities finance industry generated $7.66 billion in revenue for lenders in 2020, according to DataLend, the market data division of fintech EquiLend.

NEW YORK, Jan. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The global securities finance industry generated $7.66 billion in revenue for lenders in 2020, according to DataLend, the market data division of fintech EquiLend.

The figure represents an 11.6% decrease from the $8.66 billion generated for lenders in 2019 and a 20.7% decrease over the $9.96 billion in record-setting 2018.

Global broker-to-broker activity, where broker-dealers lend and borrow securities from each other, totaled an additional $2.87 billion in revenue in 2020, a 1.6% decrease year over year.

Securities lending revenue is calculated as the amount paid by borrowers, typically broker-dealers on behalf of their hedge fund clients, to temporarily borrow equity and fixed income securities from long-holders of these assets, known as beneficial owners.

According to DataLend, the decline in lender-to-broker revenue was experienced across equity markets globally: Americas (-3.4%), EMEA (-19.2%) and APAC (-26.8%). Across fixed income globally, corporate debt was down 37%, while government debt finished the year up 15.3% relative to 2019.

Nancy Allen, Global Product Owner of DataLend, says: «Over the first half of the year, declining market values led to lower on-loan volumes in the equity markets, while short-selling bans in Europe and Asia resulted in suppressed demand and general fee compression. In the Americas, while equity loan values declined year over year, average fees increased driven by a number of COVID- and non-COVID related names trading at very high fees to borrow.

«However, as the year progressed, short positions in U.S. equities dropped to significant lows as markets not only rebounded but hit record highs. As a result, the lending market experienced depressed fees and on-loan balances, which drove the considerable decline in revenue. As we approached the year-end, equity lending revenue in the Americas and EMEA did increase as there was a slight uptick in short activity.»

The top five revenue-generating securities in the global securities lending market in 2020 were Match Group Inc, Canopy Growth, Varta AG, Inovio Pharmaceuticals and Nikola Corp, which together generated $482 million in lending revenue in 2020.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Sungrow, the global leading inverter solution supplier for renewables, announced recently that its cumulative shipments in the Americas hit a significant milestone of 10 GW by the end of 2020, underlining its position in the deep decarbonization of the local economy and its role as a big game-changer for renewable energy across the region at large.

Significant process made in a challenging year

With a continued upward growth trajectory in markets like the United States, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, and Mexico, Sungrow has extended partnerships with a multitude of EPCs, distributors and integrators.

«We deployed 5 GW of PV inverter solutions to North America in 2020,» said Hank Wang, President of Sungrow Americas. Wang commented that the Company hit the 1 GW milestone in the LATAM hub Chile and has consolidated the pivotal role in Brazil with landmark achievements in both utility-scale market and distributed generation segments.

The celebrated projects supplied in 2020 include the 200 MW Wright Solar project and a 400 MW project in Brazil which is set to be online in the second half of 2021 with Sungrow 3.125 MW central inverter solution installed.

Notably, Sungrow is the only inverter supplier ranked «100% bankable» for two straight years by BNEF. The Company shows a robust track record of performance in projects it powers.

Giant strides taken to innovations

The achievement is testimony to the success of innovations. Sungrow has a massive R&D task force to push the boundaries of innovation and develop the most intuitive and pragmatic products of the whole industry.

With the feed-in tariffs (FiT) slashed, the dropping PPA price is poised to demand a lower system cost. Sungrow’s cutting-edge products rolled out this year include a 3.6 MW outdoor central inverter solution, well matching the local demand as it not only enables a minimized LCOE, but also can be flexibly added to solar-plus-storage plant as it is prefabricated with inputs for DC-coupled storage solutions.

The Company also undertook several unique marketing campaigns as a response to COVID-19. «There’s a massive shift to online with everything. We took this year to navigate a more diverse range of marketing channels to provide practical advice and examples that customers can benefit from,» said Hank Wang. The Company took the initiative to display latest products in a semi-truck for roadshows during the fourth quarter of 2020, attracting hundreds of customers while keeping the social distancing among the pandemic across 19 American cities.

Make 2021 a breakthrough

The global environment projection is navigating near-term uncertainty, which will require more efforts and supportive policy to the pace of the recovery worldwide. That being said, the deep decarbonization of the power generation industry is in full swing.

Sungrow continues to embrace the growth potential of the global market in support of low-carbon lifestyles and the clean energy action plan in different countries. «Success hinges on sustainability. Sungrow has enormous potential to unlock future innovations,» commented Hank Wang.

The Company stated that it is poised to meet the booming demands as it races to offer the best practices to secure the benefits for the stakeholders, backed by continued innovations and trustworthy delivery capability and a more comprehensive team spanning across the Americas, offering industry-leading service responsively. It also shows robust momentum in the path toward adding more solar-plus-storage applications.

MAHARASHTRA, India, Jan. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — 2020 has been a challenging year that no one could have predicted would turn out in the manner in which it did. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic sent economic shockwaves globally, and its impact extended beyond an international health crisis.

 

Lotto247 Logo

The economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, in India, led to the reduction in economic activities, subsequently forcing businesses to scale or shut down their operations. It resulted in many families being affected due to the sharp increase in unemployment.

In November 2020, Lotto247.com conducted a survey to understand the financial impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on its Indian market. Over 1,700 adults participated in the survey.

The survey found that 77% of economically active adults in India had lost income due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to the findings;

  • The most affected age group were adults in their 40’s. Over 80% of adults in the 40’s lost income as a result of the pandemic.
  • Adults in their 50’s, compared to those in their 40’s, were less affected. However, 73% of them still lost income.
  • Those aged 70 and older were the least affected age group. Only 30% of them lost income due to the pandemic.

Men were impacted more than women, according to the survey results. Just under 78% of men reported having lost income, while only 67% of women lost income.

The survey also revealed adults who were divorced were greatly affected, with 87.5% of them losing income. While those in a relationship, but not married, were less affected as only 59% of them lost income

(C4C). «To best defend our national security, America must protect our service members and our civil servants who keep our citizens safe.» {See Representative Cummings initial introduction of EEO reforms in H.R. 1557 https://youtu.be/IATLKiO7i5Y}

«As the C4C celebrates the bill’s passage, we also salute the invaluable leadership of the late Congressman Elijah Cummings,» said Paulette Taylor, a disabled veteran, and the C4C’s Civil Rights Chair. «Throughout his stellar career, he championed the cause of both our military and federal employees, who serve to uphold the public trust. President Ward Jordan and I are honored to have known him. Equally, we are most appreciative that he allowed the C4C to provide invaluable input to what is now known as the Elijah Cummings Federal Employee Anti-Discrimination Act. The EEO reforms, which the C4C recommended and the late Representative Cummings introduced, are a part of this historic law.»

En primicia para Emaar, el Burj Khalifa compartió celebraciones de año nuevo de diferentes lugares del mundo e invitó al público de todas partes a unirse virtualmente a través de una alianza con Zoom y transmisiones en vivo en YouTube y otras redes sociales.

Emaar y las autoridades gubernamentales tuvieron que superar enormes desafíos para organizar un evento a gran escala durante la pandemia. Gracias a amplias medidas de desinfección e innovadoras formas de distanciamiento social para garantizar la salud y seguridad de los invitados a la noche de año nuevo, este evento, que transcurrió sin contratiempos, fue ejemplo de un excelente trabajo en equipo. El éxito de la noche no habría sido posible sin el apoyo de los líderes de los Emiratos Árabes Unidos, las autoridades de Dubái, el Comité supremo de gestión de la crisis de COVID-19, la policía de Dubái, todos los miembros del Comité de seguridad del evento, los contratistas, proveedores y voluntarios de Emaar, así como de todo su equipo humano.

La experiencia se puede volver a ver en línea en las redes sociales de Emaar. El Burj Khalifa proyectará el año nuevo 2021 de Emaar cada noche hasta el 7 de enero y presentará un nuevo show de láser y luces hasta el 31 de marzo.
