of bankers‚ central bank official said that Libor rate manipulation scandal was a turning point‚ and salaries and bonuses are about to fall‚ although "there is a long way" until they reach acceptable levels. "In 1980‚ a regular investment banker was paid about the same as a lawyer or doctor. By 2006‚ however‚ the bankers were paid four times as much. This has created a large gap that currently is gradually eroding‚" said Haldane . Libor rate manipulation: The Libor scandal is a series of fraudulent

The Rate of a Reaction Chemical Kinetics is the area of Chemistry that is concerned with the speed‚ rate or mechanism at which a chemical reaction occurs. Reaction Rate is the change in the concentration of a reactant or product with time (i.e. M/s). It measures how fast a reactant is consumed and how fast a product is formed. 1.2 WRITING RATE EXPRESSIONS Consider the following hypothetical reaction. A + 2B ( 3C + D Rate = - rate of consumption of A = -[pic]rate of

concentration of a species can affect reaction rate in the determination of rate law and rate constant. 2. To determine how temperature affects reaction rate. Introduction Chemical kinetics deals with the speed‚ or rate‚ of a reaction and the mechanism by which the reaction occurs. We can think of the rate as the number of events per unit time. The rate at which you drive (your speed) is the number of miles you drive in an hour (mi/hr). For a chemical reaction the rate is the number of moles that react

interest rates As a result of our current economic situation‚ the bank is contemplating lowering interest rates to a monumental level. They are suggesting we make them negative. This would mean it would cost money to save money; the intention behind this is to stimulate spending within the economy. If businesses are forced to spend more money‚ then aggregate demand shifts to the right as investment‚ one of the components of AD‚ has been increased. Although‚ the interest rate isn’t simply one rate it
