"Sejak krisis ekonomi di Asia Tenggara tahun 1997-1998, Indonesia mengubah sistem nilai tukar dari sistem mengambang terkendali (managed floating exchange rate) menjadi sistem mengambang bebas (free floating exchange rate). Dengan penerapan sistem free floating rate, maka nilai tukar rupiah menjadi lebih fluktuatif. Sehubungan dengan tingginya exchange rate pass through di Indonesia dan ITF yang diterapkan di Indonesia, intervensi pada nilai tukar pun diperlukan. Intervensi bank sentral dalam pasar valuta asing tersebut merupakan salah satu tanda suatu negara melakukan fear of floating. Studi ini meneliti apakah benar praktek fear of floating terjadi di Indonesia. Pengujian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan model OLS yang diadopsi dari model Frankel dan Wei (1994).

Indonesian government has changed its exchange rate system from managed floating exchange rate to free floating exchange rate since the economic crisis hit most of the south east asian country in 1997-1998. This has led the exchange rate of Indonesian rupiah to became more fluctuatif against other currency. As exchange rate pass through is higher and the application of ITF, the exchange rate intervention by the central bank is needed to secure rupiah against other currency. This method, known as Fear Floating, is the method that used by country which applied the central bank?s intervention to the foreign exchange market. This study, using OLS model which is adapted from Frankel and Wei (1994), reveals the detail of whether Fear of Floating method is applied within Indonesian monetary system."

"Tax practitioners are unfamiliar with tax theory. Tax economists remain unfamiliar with tax law and tax administration. Most textbooks relate mainly to the US, UK or European experiences. Students in emerging economies remain unfamiliar with their own taxation history. This textbook fills those gaps. It covers the concept of taxes in regards to their rationale, principles, design, and common errors. It addresses distortions in consumer choices and production decisions caused by tax and redressals. The main principles of taxation—efficiency, equity, stabilization, revenue productivity, administrative feasibility, international neutrality—are presented and discussed. The efficiency principle requires the minimisation of distortions in the market caused by tax. Equity in taxation is another principle that is maintained through progressivity in the tax structure. Similarly, other principles have their own ramifications that are also addressed.A country’s constitutionalspecification of tax assignment to different levels of government—central, state, municipal—are elaborated. The UK is more centralised than the US and India. India has amended its constitution to introduce a goods and services tax (GST) covering both central and state governments. Drafting of tax law is crucial for clarity and this aspect is addressed. Furthermore, the author illustrates different types of taxes such as individual income tax, corporate income tax, wealth tax, retail sales/value added/goods and services tax, selective excises, property tax, minimum taxes such as the minimum alternate tax (MAT), cash-flow tax, financial transactions tax, fringe benefits tax, customs duties and export taxes, environment tax and global carbon tax, and user charges. An emerging concern regarding the inadequacy of international taxation of multinational corporations is covered in some detail. Structural aspects of tax administration are given particular attention. "

"In Risk and portfolio analysis the authors present sound principles and useful methods for making investment and risk management decisions in the presence of hedgeable and non-hedgeable risks using the simplest possible principles, methods, and models that still capture the essential features of the real-world problems. They use rigorous, yet elementary mathematics, avoiding technically advanced approaches which have no clear methodological purpose and are practically irrelevant. The material progresses systematically and topics such as the pricing and hedging of derivative contracts, investment and hedging principles from portfolio theory, and risk measurement and multivariate models from risk management are covered appropriately. The theory is combined with numerous real-world examples that illustrate how the principles, methods, and models can be combined to approach concrete problems and to draw useful conclusions. Exercises are included at the end of the chapters to help reinforce the text and provide insight. "
