Enron: The Fall of A Wall Street Darling

Enron is a company that reached dramatic heights, only to face a dizzying collapse. The story ends with the bankruptcy of one of America's largest corporations. Enron's collapse affected the lives of thousands of employees, many pension funds and shook Wall Street to its very core. To this day, many wonder how a company so big and so powerful disappeared almost overnight. How did it manage to fool the regulators and the Wall Street community for so long, with fake off-the-books corporations?

Lack of Capacity & Skills Stalling Growth of Insurance in Africa

The mission of Africa Re is to foster insurance development by supporting, assisting and working with national insurance markets in the African continent. That is the primary mission of Africa Re. When Africa Re was created as an initiative of African Development Bank following an agreement with Member States of the Organisation of African Unity (OAU), the idea was to bring together all states on the continent, provide capacity which was very rare at that time, bring capital and start doing what was being done by foreigners only.
