The most powerful argument for cross-border investing is the risk reduction due to low correlation of world's stock markets. Risk diversification has become more important as financial markets globalize. The financial markets are becoming increasingly related due to advanced information technology which lowers the transaction costs. Diversifying internationally in markets with low correlation with domestic markets reduces the systematic risk and investors must be willing to take advantage of these correlations to reduce volatility in their portfolios. The paper tries to analyze the long-run relationship among seven prominent stock indices using Wavelet theory. The emanating co-Integration results are further substantiated using the Apriori association rule mining. The findings suggest that there is strong to moderate co-Integration among many stock markets. ...

One of the KDD conference sessions I was excited about attending was “Data Integration.” I know, I know, it doesn’t have that sexy ring of “Social Networks,” but it’s a very real problem that StyleFeeder, as well as just about any company that stores gigabytes or terabytes of Data, faces.

By: Philip Howard , Research Director - Data Management , Bloor Research Posted: 12th September 2008 Copyright Bloor Research © 2008 Advertisement: We have recently published a report called "Comparative costs and uses of Data Integration Platforms", which can also be downloaded from the Bloor Research web site . While I don't usually blow my own trumpet about our reports this has some interesting conclusions that are worth sharing. We surveyed more than 200 companies to find out how they were using Data Integration platforms and what were the associated costs over an extended period of time and, arguably more importantly, how effective those costs were when spread across the number of projects that the platform supported. While I know that Pervasive Software coming out on top in this last category is probably the headline news coming out of this research, I would like to highlight a few of the other points that we discovered. The first of these is with respect to what Data Integration is and is not being used for. While there was some variation by tool (for example, Informatica PowerCenter was used most often for traditional ETL) we found that, across the board, the most common use of Data Integration platforms was for Data migration and conversion projects. This is perhaps a reflection of the fact that you only have one enterprise Data warehouse and loading it is considered a single job in perpetuity but it is an interesting res ...

As people who have read my blogs over the last few years will know I have always been a strong proponent of a Data centric view of the Integration world (covered in more detail here for instance). However when we discuss Data Integration we can fixate on the high-end problems and forget where the greatest challenges and risks associated with Data Integration can lie: In the excel spreadsheets we all create and use in our everyday business lives. The reality is that in financial services and elsewhere organizations rely on spreadsheets as the decision tool of choice across a whole range of critical functions from risk modelling to pricing to monitoring and financial control. Why spreadsheets are used is pretty obvious: they are quick and easy to put together (the original opportunistic application), and do not require heavy IT involvement (typically reducing the time, cost and the sometimes perceived over-head associated with getting IT involved). However, many of the drawbacks are also pretty obvious and are made worse when the spreadsheet is created outside of IT’s governance mechanisms (these are outlined in greater detail by Theresa Clarke in an excellent article in gtnews – a free registration is required): -They get complex quickly (undermining the original simplicity and cost benefits), -They are not properly tested (as they are created on the fly and often only tested for the original scenario – they are also hard to test) -They ...
