Summary

On this week’s episode of ‘A Dictionary of Finance’, Matt and Allar learn about credit stories and equity stories. As it turns out, these stories are a little different from your average bedtime fare – in fact, it is critical that bankers and other financiers not fall asleep while you tell them your story! We find out that (we’re simplifying here) pension fund managers are more likely to enjoy a story beginning with “Once upon a time…”, while angel investors, not surprisingly, would much rather go for “In a not too distant future, in a galaxy not so far away…” Paulina Brzezicka and Alberto Casorati, our guests this week, are advisors in the Innovation Finance Advisory Division at the European Investment Bank. They help their clients develop their stories. They also explain the multiples method for calculating the value of an enterprise, based on its EBITDA. (And if that last sentence confused you, you do need to listen to this episode). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

the ABC of FYTA FYTA FYTA present a series of 26 thematic shows, one for every letter of the english alphabet. Each show introduces concepts, philosophers, poets and music projects whose name starts from each specific letter. In alphabetical order, FYTA re-examine and re-define the world of proper names. The ABC of FYTA heralds the coming of a new language; it is essentially a dictionary of pulses and pauses, a study in nominalism, a post-punk pilgrim, an educational radio program for the masses who struggle to understand the new reality of our times. From Theodor Adorno to Alekna Zupancic and from Aunt Sally to die Zwei the ABC of FYTA will categorise an impossibly chaotic world of influences and contradictions. The Wind in the Willows (version 3) Kenneth Grahame The classic story of how Rat, Mole, and the other river-bankers saved Toad from his excesses. This book has it all: excitement, sentiment, destruction of private property (plenty of that), paganism, and a happy ending. The prose is beautiful and occasionally requires the use of a dictionary - I had to look up “asperities.” Written as a children’s story, The Wind in the Willows is enjoyed by many grown-ups who relish Grahame’s ability to evoke the long summer days of childhood. (Summary by Adrian Praetzellis) Oliver Cromwell and the Rule of the Puritans in England by Charles H. Firth (1857 - 1936) LibriVox The Life of Cromwell is in part based on an article contributed by the author to the Dictionary of National Biography in 1888, but embodies the result of later researches, and of recently discovered documents such as the Clarke Papers. The battle plans have been specially drawn for this volume by Mr. B. V. Darbishire, and in two cases differ considerably from those generally accepted as correct. The scheme of this series does not permit a discussion of the reasons why these alterations have been made, but the evidence concerning the battles in question has been carefully examined, and any divergence from received accounts is intentional. The reader who wishes to see this subject discussed at length is referred to a study of the battle of Marston Moor printed in Volume XII. of the Transactions of the Royal Historical Society (new series), and to a similar paper on Dunbar which will appear in Volume XIV.The quotations from Cromwell’s letters or speeches are, where necessary, Ode on Solitude by Alexander Pope (1688 - 1744) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 16 recordings of Ode on Solitude by Alexander Pope.This was the Weekly Poetry project for September 12, 2021. ------Pope was a poet and satirist of the Augustan period and one of its greatest artistic exponents. Considered the foremost English poet of the early 18th century, after Shakespeare, he is the second-most quoted author in The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations, some of his verses having entered common parlance (e.g. "damning with faint praise").
