2015 Investment Company Fast Book
Brian Reid,This year marks the 75th anniversary of the Investment Company Act and the Investment Advisers Act-the key statutes under which mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), closed-end funds, and unit investment trusts are regulated and governed. In the same year that Congress enacted these laws, 1940, the fund industry formed the National Committee of Investment Companies, the trade group that became the Investment Company Institute (ICI). Shortly after its formation, ICI began to collect mutual fund asset and flow data, launching a statistical and research program that remains one of the Institute’s core activities and central strengths. This data collection program has expanded greatly over time, with ICI currently managing 18 different fund surveys. Our historical data, some extending back nearly three-quarters of a century, provide perspective about funds and their investors across changing market cycles and an evolving investor base. One of the first projects I worked on when I joined ICI in 1996—a study showing how bond fund investors react during bond market downturns-introduced me to this historical record. At the time, there was an ongoing debate about how fund investors would react to market declines, because fund assets had risen from about $1 billion in 1940 to $3.5 trillion in 1996. Commentators and researchers were concerned that fund investors would leave the markets en masse during a downturn, destabilizing a financial system in which funds were playing a larger role.

SOROS The Life, Time and Trading Secrets of the World’s Greatest Investor
Slater Robert,This is not an authorized biography. I mention that at the outset because it answers the first question most people ask an author when they hear he or she is writing a book about someone. The idea of doing a profile of George Soros was mine. After writing a book in 1992 on General Elektric chairman Jack Welch, alsopublished by Irwin Professional Publishers, I looked around for another important business personality to profile.

Intermediate Microeconomics
Hal R. Varian,W. W. Norton к Company has been independent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder Norton and Mary D. Herter Norton first published lectures delivered at the People's Institute, the adult education division of New York City's Cooper Union. The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated academics from America and abroad. By miel-century. the two major pillars of Norton's publishing program—trade books and college texts—were firmly established. In the 1950s. the Norton family transferred control of the company to its employees, and today—with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of trade, college, anti professional titles published each year—W. W. Norton к Company stands as the largest anti oldest publishing house owned wholly by its employees.
