This year we have witnessed many currency's suddenly collapse. Iceland, Argentina, Hungary, Ukraine and others have all seen a sharp fall in the value of their currency. What causes this? and are other economies at risk? Causes of Currency Collapse 1. Inflation. Inflation reduces the value of money. If there is rampant inflation, then a currency will depreciate in value. For example, the&

Few years ago I read a leaked PWC report whose findings had contributed to the closure of an institution by a regulator that had contracted PWC to carry out a forensic audit. The report was full of inconsistencies and lacked evidence to back the recommendations.By using the auditors recommendations the regulator was put in a difficult situation that has left it in a legal limbo to date.

By Steve Yegge&nbsp; I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google for that long. One thing that struck me immediately about the two companies -- an impression that has been reinforced almost daily -- is that Amazon does everything wrong, and Google does everything right. Sure, it's a sweeping generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy. There

The Government decision to allow importation of Genetically modified food (GM)is flawed and sets a dangerous precedent that might hurt Kenya in the long run. The decision by the cabinet committee might have been advised by the current severe drought and the rising food prices that need immediate intervention before the situation turn catastrophic.But,can GM food really be the solution,given

The decision by the Obama administration to release its strategic oil reserve to ease price pressure, brought about by the Libyan crisis, might be too costly to the Kenyan economy if OPEC decides to retaliate by tightening supplies. The release of the 60 million barrel of oil might help in the short term to bring the prices down, but if the oil producing countries view the action as an affront

Recent rapid depreciation of the shilling tends to raise the question, is the Kenyan shilling under speculators attack? The CBK floating exchange rate system has been susceptible to unusual volatility that had forced the central bank to intervene from time to time to shore up the shilling, but lately CBK has decided not to intervene and let the market forces dictate the shillings fate.

The low cost, innovative model championed by Airtel might be what Kenya needs to take the telecommunication industry to the next level. The cost of establishing and maintaining a telecommunication company in Kenya is quite high due to lack of adequate infrastructure.
