Perspectivas de la economía mundial, abril de 2012

Major macroeconomic realignments are affecting prospects differentially across the world’s countries and regions. The April 2016 WEO examines the causes and implications of these realignments—including the slowdown and rebalancing in China, a further decline in commodity prices, a related slowdown in investment and trade, and declining capital flows to emerging market and developing economies—which are generating substantial uncertainty and affecting the outlook for the global economy. Additionally, analytical chapters examine the slowdown in capital flows to emerging market economies...

Global growth for 2018–19 is projected to remain steady at its 2017 level, but its pace is less vigorous than projected in April and it has become less balanced.

The euro area economy lost more momentum than expected as consumer and business confidence weakened and car production in Germany was disrupted by the introduction of new emission standards; investment dropped in Italy as sovereign spreads widened; and...

Savall's insights into the complexity of organizational life were groundbreaking, articulating the need to examine both economic and social factors as part of the same analysis, assessing technical and behavioral patterns through the lens of an integrated framework. As he has argued, there is a double-loop interaction between "the quality of functioning and economic performance," and underestimating this socio-economic "tension" leads inevitably to reduced performance and losses, which he refers to as "hidden costs."

Triunfa como Tortuga es una serie de 7 libros que nos regresan de una manera simple pero poderosa a lo básico, a los hábitos, a lo que sí funciona. Parte de la industria alimenticia y/o los medios masivos de comunicación, a veces nos confunden y parece ser que no quieren que mejoremos en dos temas: nuestro cuerpo/salud y nuestras finanzas/dinero. Todo gran cambio nace en la mente y después hay que mejorar nuestra forma de alimentarnos en muchos sentidos, no sólo en la comida. Nos alimentamos de la programación que traemos, de lo que leemos, de lo que anhelamos y de muchos aspectos que...
