Economics - DATA

Our special report (released in June 2011) explains in more detail the composition, but note than in January 2012 we made some important updates (see here for an overview). Bank of England: Money velocity Data available: quarterly | Last updated: 2011 Q1 Our measure of money velocity comes from the equation of exchange and is defined as (PY)/M. Velocity Gross output Data available: annually | Last updated: 2008 By only focusing on final goods and services GDP has two major limitations: (i) it underestimates the amount of economic activity in the economy (by ognoring the full structure of production); (ii) it overestimates the role of consumption as a driver of recovery.

Tullett Prebon. Tullett Prebon plc is an inter-dealer money broker.

Tullett Prebon

It is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is a constituent of the FTSE 250 Index. History[edit] The company was founded by Derek Tullett in 1971 as a foreign exchange broker trading as Tullett & Riley.[3] During the 1970s and 1980s it opened a number of overseas offices. In 1999 the Company merged with Liberty Brokerage to create Tullett Liberty.[3] In early 2003 the Company was bought by Collins Stewart plc, a financial services company, creating Collins Stewart Tullett plc.[3][4] In October 2004 the company acquired Prebon Yamane, a broking business formed in 1990 following the merger of three leading London-based money broking businesses—Babcock & Brown, Kirkland-Whittaker and Fulton Prebon[3]—and which had adopted that name in acknowledgement of the firm's close business alliance with the Tokyo-based Yamane Group.[3] Operations[edit] The company operates as an intermediary in wholesale financial markets.

Competition[edit] Don’t believe the hype about the US ‘recovery’ The bulls have a new story for investors to get excited about.

Don’t believe the hype about the US ‘recovery’

Don’t worry about Greece and don’t worry about China, because the US is on the mend. Sure, things still look ugly out there – unemployment is high and house prices are still falling – but Federal Reserve chief Ben Bernanke can sort all that out with a bit of money-printing. After all, with all this deleveraging going on, we won’t need to worry about inflation for a long, long time. Sounds good. And as we’re seeing right now, the promise of more quantitative easing is certainly enough to give markets another sugar rush.

But don’t get carried away. America is more indebted than during the Great Depression Feeling optimistic about the outlook for America? Swap Execution Facility. Swap Execution Facility (SEF) is a regulated platform for swap trading that provides pre-trade information (bids and offers) and an execution mechanism for swap transactions among eligible participants.[1] The regulated trading of certain swaps is a result of requirements in the United States by the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.[2] Note in particular Title VII.

Swap Execution Facility

Following the CFTC's certification of Javelin SEF LLC's Made Available to Trade Submission (MAT Submission) on January 16th, 2014, certain swaps are now mandatory to trade on Swap Execution Facilities as of February 15th, 2014.[3] The swaps business is very well established worldwide and swaps are routinely traded in quite robust over-the-counter (OTC) markets. Recent regulatory changes are driving reporting, clearing and settlement functions to much more tightly regulated Swap Execution Facilities.
