Fonds indicielUn fonds indiciel (index fund ou tracker en anglais) est un fonds de placement qui cherche à reproduire dans la mesure du possible le rendement d'un indice boursier précis, comme le CAC 40 ou le S&P 500. La gestion passive de tels fonds entraîne des frais de gestion généralement moins élevés que les fonds dits traditionnels (généralement moins de 1 %). En France, ces fonds gérés par des organismes de placement collectif en valeurs mobilières sont également désignés par OPCVM indiciels.
Project charterIn project management, a project charter, project definition, or project statement is a statement of the scope, objectives, and participants in a project. It provides a preliminary delineation of roles and responsibilities, outlines the project's key goals, identifies the main stakeholders, and defines the authority of the project manager. In Initiative for Policy Dialogue (IPD), this document is known as the project charter. In customer relationship management (CRM), it is known as the project definition report.
Loyalty business modelThe loyalty business model is a business model used in strategic management in which company resources are employed so as to increase the loyalty of customers and other stakeholders in the expectation that corporate objectives will be met or surpassed. A typical example of this type of model is: quality of product or service leads to customer satisfaction, which leads to customer loyalty, which leads to profitability.
Information exchangeInformation exchange or information sharing means that people or other entities pass information from one to another. This could be done electronically or through certain systems. These are terms that can either refer to bidirectional information transfer in telecommunications and computer science or communication seen from a system-theoretic or information-theoretic point of view. As "information" in this context invariably refers to (electronic) data that encodes and represents the information at hand, a broader treatment can be found under data exchange.
Recycling codesRecycling codes are used to identify the materials out of which the item is made, to facilitate easier recycling process. The presence on an item of a recycling code, a chasing arrows logo, or a resin code, is not an automatic indicator that a material is recyclable; it is an explanation of what the item is made of. Codes have been developed for batteries, biomatter/organic material, glass, metals, paper, and plastics. Various countries have adopted different codes. For example, the table below shows the polymer resin (plastic) codes.
Équipe projetIn a project, a project team or team is defined as "an interdependent collection of individuals who work together towards a common goal and who share responsibility for specific outcomes of their organizations". An additional requirement to the original definition is that "the team is identified as such by those within and outside of the team". As project teams work on specific projects, the first requirement is usually met. In the early stages of a project, the project team may not be recognized as a team, leading to some confusion within the organization.
Résultat netEn comptabilité, le résultat net d'une entreprise ou d'une entité est la différence, sur une période déterminée, entre les produits et les charges auxquelles s'ajoute l'impôt sur les sociétés. Lorsque le résultat net est négatif, il est appelé déficit ou perte. Lorsque le résultat net est positif il s'agit d'un bénéfice. Le résultat net est déterminé pour une période donnée, par exemple : l'année calendaire ou sur un exercice de 12 mois.
Credit analysisCredit analysis is the method by which one calculates the creditworthiness of a business or organization. In other words, It is the evaluation of the ability of a company to honor its financial obligations. The audited financial statements of a large company might be analyzed when it issues or has issued bonds. Or, a bank may analyze the financial statements of a small business before making or renewing a commercial loan. The term refers to either case, whether the business is large or small.
Transition managementTransition management, in the financial sense, is a service usually offered by sell side institutions to help buy side firms transition a portfolio of securities. Various events including acquisitions and management changes can cause the need for a portfolio to be transitioned. A typical example would be a mutual fund that has decided to merge two funds into one larger fund. In doing this, large quantities of securities will need to be bought and sold. Another frequent occurrence is a firm wanting to liquidate a large portfolio.
Analyse techniqueL'analyse technique consiste en l’étude des graphiques de cours de la bourse et de différents indicateurs déduits des cours (actif sous-jacent) dans le but de prévoir l'évolution des marchés. Cette extrapolation graphique s'applique à tout type de marché comme les indices, prix, taux et matières premières. Elle n'est donc pas limitée à la bourse (marchés des actions) ; les mêmes outils et méthodes pouvant être appliqués à tout type d'actif sous-jacent dès lors que son prix est déterminé par la rencontre de l'offre et de la demande.
