Review by £50m bank crash council

Kent County Council, which invested £50m in failed Icelandic banks, is conducting a full review of its investments around the world.

More than £1.5m is to be invested into the economy across west Suffolk over the next few years.

The health service is to invest £300m in the next 10 years in information and communication technology.

The low-carbon economy is an integral part of the world's economic recovery, not a luxurious extra.

A County Down company wins new business in Asia and Europe after investing in international marketing.

The population of West African chimpanzees in Ivory Coast has fallen by about 90% in less than 20 years, a study suggests.

List of councils which have money invested in troubled Icelandic banks.

A financial expert answers questions from some BBC readers about their personal finances.

A Devon council says it will not borrow money to meet its October wage bill and other payments because it cannot use money invested in Iceland.

Councils in England and Wales are worried about whether they will recover large sums of money invested in Icelandic banks which have collapsed.

Join the Debate - Soundview Innovation Cell

Online with Caryn McBrideIt is down the wire in the race for the White House and many people are still debating the merits, qualifications and agendas of Sens. John McCain and Barack Obama. Regardless of which candidate takes office in January, one thing is certain: Our next president will shoulder a tremendous responsibility to get our nation back on track, financially and otherwise. The most pressing issue is the economy. Wall Street woes aside, the nations debt is estimated to swell by $2.3 trillion by 2018.What does this mean for your business?To find out, the Business Journal teamed up with Keith Reynolds, vice president of business development at Defentect in Norwalk, who heads up the Soundview Innovation Cell. The cell is a local networking group of the Connecticut Growth Network, which is a program of The Connecticut Technology Council. Reynolds (aka Joe the technology entrepreneur) invited the Business Journal to moderate a debate Which Party and Candidate Is Best for Our Regional Technology Industries? Oct. 21 at the Stamford Marriott.The event was attended by members of the Soundview Innovation Cell, who meet monthly to network and discuss issues, mostly tech-related. A number of topics were raised, including a potential energy crisis, health care policies, regressive taxes, tech growth and government bailouts. Overall, we sensed a bit of disenchantment among the group regarding both presidential candidates leadership qualities.Following are some questions, comments and observations from the debate:If unemployment numbers hit double-digits, who do you want giving the fireside chat? (Responses ranged from Jack Welch to Is that a clean-coal fire?Should we share the wealth? (Unanimous: No.)I dont think either one can lead.On keeping government out of our business: Our economy is better than the rest of the world I can hire who I want I can invest in who I want to invest in Whos on Twitter? U.S. Rep. Christopher Shays is; McCain probably isnt. (Cmon! Its a free online social networking service.)But, who will be the better leader? Mr. Obama or Mr. McCain? Whos got what it takes to fix the economy? Who can talk the talk and walk the walk all the way into the White House?

Polish real estate market

Polish real estate market Polish real estate market is going to crash.  Why do I think real estate in the Poland and Eastern Europe will go down? Yes the Polish market will really go down!  Let me explain.  I like in Krakow, Poland.   Real estate costs 7000 pln a square meter for a flat in Krakow.   The average in the EU is 3000 pln a square meter. Poland does not have the money of other counties.  Poland has the biggest difference between wages and prices of flats in the EU.    Speculators are

When deciding where to invest your money, you need to always take into account your investment goals and objectives. Different types of investments carry varying degrees of risks and potential return. CD A bank CD is a very safe investment. The CD is FDIC insured up to $100,000, so there truly is minimal risk. The only downside is that you cannot withdraw that money in the CD for a specific amount of time or else you’ll receive a penalty. Bank CDs generally only pay up to 5% interest. Bonds

They can not believe that you can invest without significant startup capital. In some ways they are right. Investing is easier if you have a lot of money. There are many options that are open to people with capital that are not open if you only have a few hundred dollars to play with. But even with a few hundred dollars, th
