The Fed didn't need to raise rates or do anything. In fact, the FOMC was busy with more "accommodating" policies like Operation Twist and then two more QEs, yet consumer prices disinflate-d anyway.

Sustainability has become a top topic to address in the last few years, both for businesses and individuals. In fact, 90% of business leaders think sustainability is important, but only 60% actually have a sustainability Strategy. The demand for tangible action is becoming more pressing as we inch close to the 2030 milestone of the Paris Agreement. To encourage action from businesses, we're seeing more public and private sector contracts include a tendering requirement to show your commitment to sustainability. One such example is the need for a PPN 06/21 Carbon Reduction Plan. In this weeks' episode David Algar, Principal Carbonologist® at Carbonology, joins Mel to explain how to create a Carbon Reduction Plan, shares some top tips on presentation and how Carbonology® can support you. You'll learn · How to create a Carbon Reduction Plan · How Carbonology® can help you align that plan with ISO 14064 and PAS 2060 · Addressing difficult tendering questions · How to best present your Carbon Reduction Plan Resources ● Carbonology ● Book a call with David Algar ● A quick Guide to creating your PPN 06/21 Carbon Reduction Plan In this episode, we talk about: [00:24] What are PPN 06/21 Carbon Reduction Plans? – Go back and listen to our previous episode to learn more. [00:42] Episode Summary – Today we'll be talking about how to create a Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP), how to deal with difficult tendering questions and the best ways in which to present your CRP. [02:46] How do you actually calculate the emissions? We have gone into this in a lot more detail on a previous episode, but to summarise:- Emissions are calculated by taking your activity data, such as kWh of electricity, or miles driven in a vehicle, and multiplying it by an emission conversion factor. Specific emission conversion factors are available from DEFRA for specific activity data, they are also year-specific. The hard part is sourcing your activity data, accounting for missing information, performing estimates, and ensuring the overall methodology is accurate. This is all done in alignment with ISO1464-1, as well as the PPN guidelines, so one of the very first things we'll do with you is define your organisational and reporting boundaries, [05:27] How can a business set carbon reduction targets and forecast emissions? This is tricky as it involves trying to predict the future, not just in the short term, but potentially several decades ahead depending on your goal. The good thing is you know the end destination of your carbon pathway: little to no emissions by 2050. Using this and some simple maths you can at least map out where you should be each year when moving forward from the base year, the base year being the period you use to compare future results against. Usually the base year is the first year you complete calculations, but this can change over time. We're finding some clients are opting to change their base year to account for the disruption of COVID-19 on operations [06:40] How do you actually set the targets?: When we look at target setting and emission forecasts we generally take 2 approaches: Milestones: · The first, and our most common approach, is about setting milestones based on specific carbon reduction initiatives the business can implement, at specific dates. · For instance, all company vehicles being hybrid by 2025 and fully EV by 2035? Or what if we phased out gas by a certain date? Or cut out all single use plastics? · Using this milestone method for the forecasting can be tricky, but you can end up with a carbon pathway that is more representative of real life. Straight line method: · The second is what we refer to as the ‘straight line' method. This is a simpler approach that involves doing some simple maths to plan out your carbon targets for each year, without factoring in specific milestones or events. · We refer to this unofficially as the ‘straight line' method as the graph showing your carbon pathway is pretty much a straight line from your base year towards net zero, using the milestones method gives a 'bumpy' line due to the influence of specific milestones at specific years. [08:35] A tip for setting targets for the first time is by thinking ‘what if? This is essentially looking at the thing you're doing now and replacing it with a more sustainable alternative. For instance, calculating what your business travel emissions would be last year if they were all completed in hybrids, or if domestic flights were replaced by train journeys. Doing these ‘what if?' calculations is a bit hypothetical as operations are likely to change over the years, but it still helps give you a specific target to aim for a specific GHG sources. [10:40] How can you influence carbon reduction in areas where you have no direct control? Some areas will be out of your control, for instance if you ship goods in from around the world you can't necessarily decide how they get to you, or if they are transported via more sustainable transport. · One thing you can do is aim to set a good example yourself as a business · You could also adopt the PPN framework yourself and request it from anyone that is aiming to win your business · Another quick win is actually speaking to your suppliers. If you use a local delivery firm you could speak to them about their plans for an electric fleet, or more sustainable packaging. Or if you use a data centre, you could enquire about if is run on renewable energy sources [13:15] But what if we are planning to grow as a business? Results are expected to fluctuate over time, so if they go up after the base year this shouldn't impact your success or failure in your tender submission. The aim is obviously to decrease on average over time If you know for certain that they will increase in the next few years, for instance through opening new sites, making acquisitions, or just natural growth, that's ok. You could pick a new base year if operations significantly change as this will give a more realistic figure to work down from. You can also use this as an opportunity to evidence efficiency improvements through intensity metrics, such as your tonnes of carbon per employee, or relative to your revenue. [15:15] In what other ways can Carbonology help to support you? – Once everyone is happy with the CRP, you'll then have to actually use it in tenders. The fun thing about tenders is that they can all ask different questions, despite PPN having technical requirements, so you can't always have the information to hand before submitting one. We can't write your tender submissions for you, but we can provide guidance and pull out the necessary figures if requested, for instance if you need certain numbers to support with your Social Value Model reporting. [16:20] How can this help on your journey to Carbon Neutrality? – If you've gone through all the hard work to create a PPN 06/21 Carbon Reduction Plan, you'll be in the ideal position to achieve carbon neutrality of your operations via PAS 2060. The next step would be creating a PAS 2060 Qualifying Explanatory Statement, or QES, which details how you have achieved carbon neutrality through offsetting, and your commitment to maintain this for future reporting periods. [17:25] Where does the verification come into play? If you've already calculated your emissions you may be asked to have them independently verified by an independent third party. We've recently developed a process so we can check over you GHG calculations, policies, procedure and overall alignment with the standard. As part of this, Carbonology can provide a verification report with all findings and opportunities for improvement, as a well as a verification statement to show you have had emission independently verified in alignment with ISO 14064.

Kia ora,Welcome to Thursday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news American data points to the soft landing the US Fed has been looking for as it seems to have successfully navigated the inflation transition.But first we should note that President Xi has arrived in San Francisco for the APEC meeting, his first visit to the US in five years. The last time he was there, China's economy was in the ascendency and Trump was the US president. This time those factors have reversed. The Biden-Xi meetings have started but there are low expectations for immediate progress on the thorny issues facing them. Progress, if it comes, will come slowly in small steps.Meanwhile, US mortgage applications had a rare rise last week, and mortgage interest rates were unchanged. But the rise was as much about the year-ago base as any strength this year.American producer prices fell in October in something of a surprise retreat. But it was driven lower fuel prices so that is a definite upside. Their PPI fell -0.5% in October from September to be +1.3% higher than a year ago. Good prices went down -1.4% in the month, the first decrease since May mainly due to a -15% drop in petrol prices. Services prices were unchanged from the prior month. It is a good result that indicates the American inflationary impulse has probably passed.Retail sales decreased by -0.1% in October from September, putting an end to a six-month streak of increases, but at least it was much less than the market expectation of a -0.3% decline, so they have held up better than analysts expected. Year-on-year they are up +2.7%.Going the other way, they was a very large, and unexpected, rise in factory activity in New York State, in the Fed survey for that region. It was most impressive, up +9.1% but it was driven by a surge in inventories, so it is unlikely to last. New order levels were little-changed, but there was a major catch-up in unfilled orders.In the US Congress, the Republicans recently installed a new leader in the House of Representatives and his first big test was shepherding a budget funding bill through that body. He succeeded, but only with overwhelming Democrat support. 93 Republicans voted against his measure! Don't bother learning his name (Mike Johnson), he may not be around long. But the net impact of yesterday's vote is that shutdown pressures have evaporated - till the next time, probably in early February 2024.In Japan, their economy shrank -0.5% in Q3-2023 from Q2, worse than market forecasts of a -0.1% decline and after a +1.1% growth in Q2, a flash figure showed. This was the first quarterly GDP contraction since Q4-2022. It was sluggish private consumption that caused the pullback and that was a surprise because intervening data didn't signal such a drop.China's October industrial production came in +4.6% higher than year ago levels. These increases have been very even each month since March, looking like they will meet national targets in a steady, planned way.China's October electricity production was up +5.2% from a year ago, but in fact down -8.6% from September and down -16.7% from August. These recent declines just points out how low the year-ago base was. Unfortunately much of the year-on-year rise was from coal-fired generation.Retail sales in China were little-changed in October from September (+0.07%), but were up an impressive +7.6% from a year ago, which says more about the weak year-ago base than anything else.In Europe, September data for industrial production looks kind of awful, no matter which way you look at it. Declines everywhere.In Argentine, we should note that they are now close to the final round of voting in their presidential election. It is a Peronist vs a libertarian contest. Hyperinflation is the key backdrop.In Australia, wages rose +4.0% in September from a year ago, the highest rate since 2008. A large part of this was because their Fair Work Commission annual wage review decision of +5.75%, rises in their aged care sector affecting about ¼ mln workers, and ratchet clauses in many wage and salary contracts. There were some chunky public wage settlements as well. In the same year, Australia had 5.4% CPI inflation. (For reference, NZ CPI was 5.6% in the same period and the QES reported weekly gross wages up +5.5% - so holding their own in New Zealand).Optus has confirmed the software upgrade that triggered its nationwide meltdown last week was from the network of its parent company, Singtel.The UST 10yr yield is up +8 bps from yesterday, now at 4.55% in a bounce of yesterday's dump. The price of gold will start today at US$1961/oz and down -US$2/oz from yesterday.Oil prices have softened about -US$1.50 overnight, to be just under US$77.50/bbl in the US. The international Brent price is down to US$81.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar starts today at 60.3 USc and up almost +½c from yesterday. Against the Aussie we are up to 92.5 AUc. Against the euro we are also up at 55.5 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on at 69.6, and a net +40 bps higher.The bitcoin price starts today at US$36,365 and down another -1.4% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has also been moderate at just on +/- 2.3%.You can find links to the articles mentioned today in our show notes.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.
In this week's podcast, Chamber Deputy Director of Research, Subrah Krishnan-Harihara, talks about some of the findings from our regular business survey - the Quarterly Economic Survey (QES). The QES has been running for 35 years this year, and is a business confidence survey, asking questions about how businesses are faring in terms of sales and orders, whether they're planning to recruit and what their future plans are. Subrah highlights some of the findings from the Q3 QES and how they are relevant to the LSIP, helping to provide extra data about businesses' recruitment intentions, the job roles they're recruiting for and their labour and skills requirements.

Jetzt kostenloses Erstgesrpäch auf www.svenwalla.de ausmachen. Dr. Markus Heckner bringt Licht ins Dunkle und erklärt einmal ganz genau, was es mit der e-HKP, EBZ, KIM, QES und TI überhaupt auf sich hat und macht klar, dass das alles eigentlich garnicht so übel ist: EBZ: Elektronische Beantragungs- und Genehmigungsverfahren für Zahnärzte -> ist das Verfahren, wir sprechen aber lieber vom e-HKP, der im EBZ Verfahren funktioniert. Heißt: den e-HKP Antrag genehmigen zu lassen. e-HKP: Heil- und Kostenplan in elektronischer Form Der größte Benefit von e-HKP und EBZ: -> Unsicherheit von Terminmanagement gibt es nicht mehr! -> es wird Aufwand und Zeit gespart -> es werden Prozesse automatisiert und wertvolle Mitarbeiter können anders eingesetzt werden! In der Zahnarztschaft kommt das nicht ganz so positiv an. Warum ist das so? Es scheitert oft an der richtigen Kommunikation: die TI (Telematik Infrastruktur) und die EBZ haben nichts miteinander zutun. Die EBZ nutzt lediglich die TI. Um all das machen zu können, benötigt man den elektronischen Heilberufeausweis. Weil: Rechtlicher Aspekt: mit dem Ausweis kann die elektronische Unterschrift des Arztes gegeben werden. (QES: qualifizierte, elektronische Signatur) Datenschutzaspekt: Es kann mit Hilfe der KIM (Kommunikation im Gesundheitswesen) kommuniziert werden, ohne dass datenschutzrechtliche Vorgaben verletzt werden.

The positive results which were reported throughout 2021 have continued into the first quarter of 2022 in terms of sales increases, with turnover expected to improve, and more than half of businesses anticipating a corresponding improvement in profitability. However, the challenges identified at the beginning of the year, and which businesses were planning for, have now been further compounded by global macroeconomic factors. In this episode, we are joined by Rosalind Payne and Christine Francis as they discuss the Q1 2022 QES results since they joined the panel for the analysis webinar, as well as an insight into the Q2 results. Speakers: Rosalind Payne – Tax Partner and Christine Francis – Director, Business Restructuring
Statistieke Suid-Afrika het gister die resultate van die kwartaalikse opname van indiensname (QES) bekend gemaak. Dit is anders as die arbeidsmagopname omdat dit op indiensname in die formele sektor fokus. Die syfers wys dat daar 200 000 meer mense indiensgeneem was as in die eerste kwartaal van 2021. In vergelyking met die vierde kwartaal van verlede jaar is daar 42 000 meer mense indiengeneem. Dit is positief, maar ongelukkig nie baie nuwe werke nie, en wanneer mens na indiensname in verskillende sektore kyk is dit kommerwekkend. * Die Ekonomie Minuut word ondersteun deur die NWU Sakeskool.

Statistieke Suid-Afrika het gister die resultate van die kwartaallikse opname van indiensname bekend gemaak. Dit meet indiensname onder 20 000 besighede. Die fokus is dus op die formele sektor en die opname sluit die landbou-sektor uit. Die syfers wat ons hier kry lyk effens anders as die Arbeidsmagopname. Daardie is ʼn opname onder huishoudings en gee meer besonderhede oor wie werk het, en werk soek. Gister se syfers was vir die tweede kwartaal van hierdie jaar, tot en met die einde van Junie. Suid-Afrika het ʼn rekord hoogtepunt van werkloosheid bereik in die tweede kwartaal en die QES syfers bevestig dit.
Statistics South Africa yesterday announced the results of the quarterly employment survey. It measures employment among 20,000 businesses. The focus is therefore on the formal sector and the survey excludes the agricultural sector. The figures we get here look slightly different from the Labor Force Survey. The QLFS is a survey among households and gives more details about who has a job, and who is looking for a job. Yesterday's figures were for the second quarter of this year, up to the end of June. South Africa reached a record high level of unemployment in the second quarter and the QES figures confirm this.

Guest Ms Michelle Chua-Lagare of YoungCTO Rafi Quisumbing. I help software development companies reduce regression labor cost by up to 96% through test automation, and train fresh grads to perform like Sr. test resources within a couple of days, not years. https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-... QE Is The New QA Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/34403... For their CV or inquiries, they can send it to askus@qe-360.com I've worked with start-ups, big international corporations, and the challenges are the same: Most companies are having a hard time releasing new features faster, testing activities are becoming their bottleneck. ❌ companies are paying millions for manual testers ❌ fresh graduates do not know what to do when they land the QA role ❌ testing is mostly least prioritized, given insufficient time to test ❌ developers always outnumber QAs ❌ tests are mostly done manually ❌ companies do not have enough test resources ❌ very few QEs are qualified ❌ those who are qualified are poached to work abroad ❌ production bugs due to missed tests So, yes, you are not alone. Most of software development companies are in the same boat, that's why QE 360 emerged into the business it is today. QE 360 is a training and consulting services provider focusing on software quality. We help software development companies DO MORE WITH LESS - REDUCE COSTS and DELIVER FASTER.

You're nearing the end of your project, getting cross-functional approval on your design, when your QE or RE friend comes running with a big, red STOP button! Let's avoid that! Quality and Reliability are INPUTS into the design process, much earlier than by the time we have a prototype in-hand (even at the black-box, input-output phase). Getting the QEs and REs involved early will help your design be a success with suppliers, manufacturers, and your cross-functional team. Support the show
Anthem Blanchard of the Anthem vault discuss the hacking scam on Bitcoin. Bubba and Anthem talk about Ron and Mrs. Paul visiting his conference. How his father worked in the financial world. Anthem states that he doesnt favor central banks he prefers a decentralized currency. Discuss the audit of the Fed by the congress. What happens if the Central banks fail? How do we keep security if the troops cant get paid? What happens if all of the central banks fail? Bitcoin (electronic currency) will be the solution.How does Bitcoin clear trades? What happens if we have no clearing corporation? The network clears the trade and the computers will clear the trade. What happens when the bitcoin exchanges get hacked? We are in the preliminary market space and when the industry matures things will work their way out. What is your take on the Winklevoss twins? Good idea for having an ETF. Anthem states that Gold thru Hayek will allow the ability own Gold in small amounts for universal payments.Anthem states that with the global Hayek it will allow for the instant transformation of payments in any country, he cites Gyft.com as an example as an internet company that accepts gold. The longer we have government intervention in markets unproductive capital will be bailed out. The QEs are nothing more than a legalized Ponzi schemes that are racing each other to the bottom currency to increase exports. Anthem feels that unless you move to a new form of global payment the powder keg will continue to grow until the big default hits. Why will the markets benefit if we have no centralized clearing. Because decentralized clearing minimizes the chance of a massive failure. Jackson tried to decentralize the currency and it resulted in a collapse of the economy. Anthem feels that technology will mitigate much of the problems that happened in the 1830s. In todays society technology allows for the transfer of funds instantaneously if you have an electronic currency.
