Senator wants bond for ailing roadways

May 17th, 2012

TULSA – Thousands of trucks travel through Oklahoma everyday, but most don’t ever get weighed.

That’s because the state’s existing weigh stations are in shabby conditions, with many shut down — putting Oklahoma roads at risk.

“Overweight trucks degrade the life expectancy of those roads greatly,” said Oklahoma Senator Gary Stanislawski, (R)-Tulsa.

The plan has been to build eight permanent new weigh stations at points of entry . The money comes from a fee wholesales pay on gas, but it only brings in $6 million a year.

So far it’s taken almost half a decade and only one is finished. In fact, the way funding is set up right now, it would take 10 years or more just to fund all of the new weigh stations, but Stanislawski came up with a new strategy he believes will have them all funded in half that time.

He called together commissioners with the Oklahoma Corporation Commission and the secretary of the Oklahoma Department of Transportation on Tuesday and shared his idea to get a bond to pay for the weigh stations.

“No. 1, you’re locking in very low interest rates in this environment. No. 2, we’re actually protecting our citizens more by getting these weigh stations up and running much quicker,” said Stanislawski.

The bond would be paid back through the wholesaler fee on gas until about $60 million are reached. The fund is set to cap out at $81 million, but Stanislawski says since funding is accounted for already for two weigh stations, $60 million should be enough.

The downside: the idea of a bond hasn’t been popular with other lawmakers in the past.

Still, ODOT Secretary Gary Ridley said that feeling only existed in the early stages of the weigh station project.

“Once you have a funding stream in place, whatever that is, whatever the decision that’s made, then I think you can talk about, ‘Okay, are the projects far enough along that bonding them makes sense,’” said Ridley.

It likely won’t happen until next session, but Stanislawski says starting discussions pave the way to keep our pavement preserved down the road.

ACI – The Financial Markets Association: NEW FX BEST PRACTICES IN OPERATIONS

May 14th, 2012

Press Release
Paris / Zurich / Vienna, 10 May 2012

New FX Best Practices in Operations launched at the ACI World Congress in Dubai 2012

FX Practices in Operations was developed by a team led by Andreas Gaus, member of the ACI Board of Education and Chairman of the European Central Bank Operations Management Group (OMG), who reviewed the Bank of England Non-Investment Products (NIPS) Code, the Federal Reserve Bank`s 60 Best Practices and the ECB`s OMG documents, among other documents, which were then formulated and updated to create a new benchmark.

The team reviewed the above documents, and ISDA`s documents as well as the existing ACI Model Code`s chapter on Operations, and produced a newly formulated benchmark of FX Best Practices in Operations. The team was comprised of individuals from Banque de France, CECA, Goldman Sachs, UBS, Banco de Portugal, Nordea, Dexia, Deutsche Bundesbank, HSBC, Credit Suisse and Citi Bank. An external review was provided by Central banks and numerous Global Operations Managers from the Operations Committees of the Reserve Bank of Australia, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), the Bank of Japan, the US Federal Reserve System (FED), the Bank of England, and many other banks and professionals.

The launch of the finalised work was ready on March 24, 2012 following the Annual General Assembly of ACI, the Financial Markets Association in Dubai at the ACI World Congress 2012. David Woolcock, Chairman of the Committee for Professionalism (CFP) commented: `The team has done a tremendous job over the past months. FX is the world`s largest financial market, and thus it is essential to have `self-regulating` guidelines, building on ACI`s experience, in place. The CFP will now incorporate the new FX Practices in Operations into the existing ACI – The Model Code at the end of August.`

`ACI`s The Model Code has been compiled in response to an international need amongst dealers and brokers operating in the OTC (over-the-counter) foreign exchange, money and derivatives markets. In 1975 the first ACI Code of Conduct was published covering foreign exchange and euro-currency dealing. The present update “FX Best Practices in Operations” will bring up-to-date recent market developments from a fragmented landscape of various documents, add new market practices and become a new global benchmark`, says Manfred Wiebogen, President of ACI. `The creation follows ACI`s intention to support smooth and harmonized markets as exemplified in its slogan … since 1955 balancing the financial markets.`

The new FX Best Practices in Operations

84 FX Best Practices in Operations have been up-dated or re-defined. The findings will be implemented into The ACI Model Code Chapter in Operations and also into the Certification program – ACI`s worldwide benchmarking and training programme.

The baskets covered in the new chapters are

Microsoft to raise wholesale prices by a third

May 8th, 2012

British businesses using Microsoft (NasdaqGS: MSFTnews) products face massive increases in their
bills, after the software giant said it would increase its wholesale prices
by up to a third.

Microsoft has told wholesalers who sell company licenses for Word, PowerPoint
and Outlook that from July 1 prices will rise by an average of 26pc and in
some cases by as much as 33pc.

The biggest price hikes have been reserved for businesses served by its “Open
Value” package for small and medium-sized firms, and will hit them at a
time when they are already under severe financial strain.

Nearly one in three companies are already “regularly” reaching their
overdraft limit, according to a survey by

insolvency firm R3 earlier this month, highlighting rising financial distress
among businesses.

According to Microsoft, the price rise is designed to bring the cost of its
products in the UK in line with its euro prices. Scott Dodds, UK general
manager of marketing and operations, said: “Because of sustained
currency differences between European countries, Microsoft is taking action
to establish and maintain price consistency in the region for our volume
licensing programs.”

He added that its “Open” packages which are different from its “Open
Value” packages which are popular with small businesses have seen a
lower price increase of 7.5pc and that wholesalers will not be obliged to
pass them on to business customers.

Microsoft has not increased its prices for a number of years, and July’s
increases will not impact customers who buy Microsoft products for private
use, or have them pre-installed on their PCs. However, they have none the
less left many business users outraged.

Mike Chambers, managing director of Comparex, a “large account reseller”
which wholesales licenses to multinationals, said: “This will come at
the expense of the customer. We are in a double-dip recession and many
organisations are squeezed.”

He also criticised Microsoft for giving customers just a couple of months’
notice of the price rises. “It gives large organisations a very short
time to decide how much and what direction to invest in Microsoft technology.”

Many businesses run their companies on Microsoft products and find themselves “locked
in”. However, analysts have predicted that many will migrate to
open-source products such as Google (NasdaqGS: GOOGnews) ‘s.
