An article “Singapore corporate governance worse than in neighbors Malaysia and Thailand more transparent than financial hub, study finds” references a study that assesses corporate governance areas covering business ethics, including internal and external commitments against corruption, as well as reporting and monitoring.A key statement for students to consider, out of the article, is “In Singapore companies — and I’m not so sure how to put this — there seems to be a reticence, a reluctance, to make disclosures”.The articles above makes uncomfortable reading, as it poses significant reputational damage.For this assignment, put yourself in the position of being an external advisor or consultant, appointed by a medium sized, non-listed Singapore-owned company with regional manufacturing links. As part of this consultancy brief, you have been directed to investigate whether concepts of Corporate Social Responsibility may provide future direction.Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is generally understood to mean that companies have a degree of responsibility not only for the economic consequences of their activities, but also for social and environmental implications.Students are to write a researched report, reframing this situation through the perspective of Corporate Social Responsibility to set a higher order agenda for Corporate Governance.In this report, devote thought and well-grounded arguments to the company, drawing on Stakeholder Salience.Reflecting on the course, draw upon their learnings from this semester, the theories which have been discussed, to consider why Singapore companies seem to be reluctant to make disclosures. Identify the strengths and weakness of the different perspectives.You should considerHow can organisations and specifically organisational boards be made more accountable (Schillemans and Bovens 2019)?From accountability (Schillemans and Bovens 2019) and stakeholder (Freeman 2008; Mitchell et al 1997) perspectives what are the strengths and weaknesses of the extant governance models?Drawing on course literature and concepts (for example Psaros 2008; Mitchell et al 1997; Boyd et al 2011; Morck, and Yeung, 2003; Young et al 2008) critically address these questions by interrogating literature on the following alternative governance models and structures (Government Business Enterprises (GBEs)/State Owned Enterprises (SOEs), cooperatives, unitary boards, dual tier boards/codetermination/Works Councils).Your answer must discuss principles that might apply to all models and draw on the following literature: stakeholder value (Freeman 2008), Government Business Enterprises (GBEs) (Bovens 2019; Henderson & Clarke 2016), co-operatives (Erassti et al 2017; Cook 1995), and codetermination on boards & works councils/dual boards (Jackson & Muellenborn 2012; Frege 2005, 2002; Hertig 2006).

“The US Federal Reserve says that it expects economic growth to rise sharply this year — along with inflation — but Jerome Powell, the Fed chair, said that despite this, interest rates were unlikely to rise through 2023. (Links to an external site.) Economists have been fretting recently that inflation could rise due to improving economic prospects brought on by the reopening of the economy, the ramping up of vaccinations (Links to an external site.) and the Biden administration’s massive stimulus package. But Powell believes any bump in inflation this year “will be short-lived.” (Murfett 2021)Your task is to write a report or Essay (max 4,500 words) examining how the United States domestic fiscal and monetary policy might impact on the Asia pacific region, specifically on Australian and Singaporean economies. In your answer consider likely scenarios of US expansionary fiscal and monetary policy on Singaporean and Australian economies. In your assessment of the likely impacts of US policy on Singapore and Australia, use the theoretical tools and concepts developed in the course, for example:-Current macroeconomic indicators including the balance of payments of the US, Singapore and Australia to get an understanding of the current international macroeconomic context to then assess how changes might impact on International flows in goods and assets for each country.Consider real interest rate differentials across countries and relative growth rates – what would the intertemporal model predict about capital flows and the current account balances of the three countries. Note; inflation rates and expected inflation rates will be important to consider here also.How might changes impact on the exchange value of the currencies of the three economies and why. Critically examine Australia and Singapore’s exchange rate mechanism and examine the possible costs and benefits of exchange rate management (You can apply the flexible V fixed exchange rate example for illustration purposes)Use the IS LM BP model to illustrate the macroeconomic spill over effects of US policy on the various countriesCritically examine other concepts developed in the course that might be relevant – these may include the Swan diagram, RER, currency crisis,

Module 5 Discussion: My Favorite BandsIf you’ve had a really bad day (one of those “I wish I had stayed in bed days”), is there a product that always makes you feel better? How about at the holidays; does your family have favorite foods that you associate with all the good things the holidays mean to you? The firms that make those products certainly hope so, because it means they have been successful in creating a brand image that you associate with positive feelings or values. We don’t even have to eat that favorite food; just the logo or jingle can cause us to make those associations. But for every person that shares your love for Coke there’s one that won’t settle for anything other than Pepsi.In this week’s discussion we’re going to continue our study of branding by comparing two competing brands. In this discussion we hope to accomplish two things. First, demonstrate that you have grasped, and can apply, the basic concepts of branding. If you did not take your time with the Elder Care scenario this week you will find this very difficult. Second, apply those concepts to analyzing not just the brand image of a given product, but how that brand compares and contrasts with a direct competitor.To begin, select a brand that you like. Describe the brand image of the product or firm and provide very specific examples of how they firm’s supports that image. Then, select a competing brand and compare and contrast the brand image of the second product to the first. Be very specific and provide detailed examples. You are encouraged to use your own experiences with the product in your discussion. Examples of ads or other promotional activities will be very helpful in evaluating how the firm supports the brand.

Why can Prada sell a handbag for $2,000 that costs the firm a little more to manufacture than the $200 bag sold at a department store? At the other end of the pricing spectrum, why would a consumer goods company provide a coupon that makes their new snack product all but free? We learned in the Elder Care scenario that there are a number of pricing strategies firms can use to achieve their marketing objectives. Do they want to build market share, create a perception of exclusivity, or simply get you to try those new cookies?Consider the product you are using for your marketing plan. How would you price it to achieve your objectives? Describe the pricing strategy you would use to introduce your product to the market, and why you selected that strategy over other options. Be very precise – you must use the correct terminology to receive ANY points.Your analysis must include:If your choice a long-term or short-term strategy?What advantages or disadvantages do you foresee?Suppose that sales are not meeting your objectives, what change might you make in your pricing?Be sure to complete the Elder Care scenario and the exercises before you attempt to post. Posting is not available until you have completed the scenario. As always, college level writing is expected and your post should be a minimum of 300 words.By the way, that $2000 Prada bag may seem like lot of money for a simple handbag, but it is not even close to top of the pyramid. For that, check out the Tanaka designed bag sold by Hermes for a staggering $1.9 million. Why not order two?
