This article analyses the determinants of young women’s participation in the labour market. For this purpose, the Employment Policy Enhancement Survey (EAPE), conducted by the Laboratoire de Recherches et d’Etudes Economiques et Sociales (LARES) in collaboration with CERDI in 2018 was used as the database. The results of Gallant and Nychka’s (1987) semi-nonparametric procedure show that health status, household size, marital status, and educational attainment are explanatory factors of young women’s labour market participation in Congo

This paper reconsiders the outcome of the adoption of a single legal currency in the 1999 Euro Act. Installing a central bank, several different solutions surfaced among the EU members and in the global economy, since the 1922 Genoa summit. The last Euro solution came after the severe, unexpected stock market crash on October 19, 1987. Furthermore, the sub-prime bubble 2007, the financial collapse 2008 and the final 2012 the banking melt down, induce to reconsider the overlapping monetary and financial fallouts. The 89 Interstate Banking Act and the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994, induce a monetary and financial evolving infrastructure. This paper focuses on the conflicts at the enlarging EU community seen the unavoidable monetary and financial integration, considering that the unique definition of the monetary functions as its essence is misinterpreted, in a clear common asymmetry affecting the whole evolving situation.

Cosmetic companies are trying to include more sustainability in their strategies. But, showing commitment is always a challenge for them. This work consists in showing the degree of commitment of cosmetic companies in their marketing practices. The qualitative study carried out aims to determine the level of their commitment in terms of sustainability, based on 10 websites of “sustainable” cosmetics companies that sell their products online, and on defining sustainability criteria for each variable of the marketing mix. The results indicate that the majority of the companies analyzed are aware of the importance of sustainability and have taken measures to have a positive impact on the economy, society and the environment. The companies have made considerable efforts in “product” and “communication” strategies, but additional improvements can be envisaged for “price” and “distribution” strategies.

This paper set out to analyze and forecast the Hong Kong Interbank Interest Rate (HIBOR) for a period 2006 to 2018. The main objective of this study is to propose an appropriate time series forecasting model for HIBOR. HIBOR conceptually captures the interaction between demand and supply of Hong Kong dollar in the interbank market. The volatility of HIBOR reflects market sentiment, changes in underlying macroeconomic environment, random events and even political climate. Thus, the time series data of HIBOR appears to have multiple seasonality during the aforesaid period. The TBATS model, the state space modeling framework developed by De Livera, Hyndman and Snyder (2010) is adopted for this study to improve the accuracy and efficiency of the time series modeling and forecasting of HIBOR. The TBATS model incorporates Box-Cox transformations, Fourier representations with time varying coefficients, and ARMA error correction. Likelihood evaluation and analytical expressions for point forecasts and interval predictions under the assumption of Gaussian errors are derived, leading to a simple, comprehensive approach to forecasting complex seasonal time series. In addition, the trigonometric formulation is used as a means of decomposing complex seasonal time series, which helps to identify and extract seasonal components which are otherwise not apparent in the time series plot itself. The performance of the TBATS model as evaluated by measures of forecast error are presented.

Presentation of the reports on the reformation of personal income taxation that have been prepared with a development plan for the Greek economy, that discuss the issue of taxation and point out its important features. The goal is the complete modernization of the tax system, so that it responds more fully to the principles of social justice, contributes to the economic development of the country and is governed by simple and modern procedures, which apply to all tax objects. The purpose of the study is to deepen the proposals for tax reform based on the peculiarities of the Greek economy, the international trends in this field and the weaknesses of the tax system. The effects of a tax reformation are analyzed and how it should take the form of the reform, which, however, requires a new legislation, which will bring about radical and deep cuts, which respond to the new conditions and the internationalization of the economy. Proposals for a set of structural measures, which are necessary for the country’s adaptation to the wider European environment and the elimination of the weaknesses that increase its distance from the other member countries. Citation of the common points of the reports on the reformation of personal income taxation and their adoption by the tax leadership.

With the increasingly deepened sustainable development concept in China, the logistics industry is undergoing transformation toward green logistic, requiring relevant logistics companies to fully strengthen green logistics management to accelerate the sustainable development of the logistics industry. This paper is focused on the analysis of green logistics management in the context of sustainable development. The meaning of green logistics management is firstly introduced, and then the importance of green logistics management is discussed. According to the current status of green logistics management, this paper proposes relevant management countermeasures, hoping to provide relevant personnel with certain reference.
