Singapore, 18 June 2018 (Monday) – The Singapore Management University’s (SMU) Lee Kong
Chian School of Business (LKCSB) is pleased to report that its MSc in Wealth
Management (MWM) has been recognised for the fourth consecutive year as one of
the top three finance Masters programmes in the world by the Financial Times
(FT) Masters in Finance Post-experience Ranking 2018.
Logistics
The logistics sector has seen demand stabilise after the
implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST). Majority of the companies
in this sector have witnessed better performance in the second half of the year
due to a shift to organised transporters. Implementation of GST and e-way bill
is helping organised players attract fresh business as smaller unorganised
players are facing compliance as well as regulatory cost pressures. With the
sector staring at an optimistic future after these structural changes, we
analysed the results and earnings outlook of the two biggest logistics
companies in India: Allcargo
Logistics and VRL
Logistics.
With retailers declaring
bankruptcy left and right, and with the oft-cited refrain of the “retail
apocalypse” about as prevalent as a Kardashian tweet, it is important that the
industry never lose sight of the universal truth that physical retail experiences
still matter. Like good sex – good retail is still physical. It is unexpected,
guttural, and sensual. No matter how hard it tries, digital will never supplant
physical retail’s greatest attribute -- the shear memory and delight of being
somewhere, with someone.
Supply Chain

How today's parliamentary landscape is shaping digital supply chain across the UK and Germany
Technology has infiltrated
every aspect of our consumer lives, so it follows that it is also causing a
major shift in manufacturing and the supply chain. From the ‘smart factory’ or
‘digital twin,’ to the ‘smart home,’ cyber-physical systems are interacting
seamlessly through the Internet of Things. Accelerated digital transformation
is at the heart of the crystalising fourth industrial revolution, or popularly
known as Industry 4.0, and the industrial sector is poised to benefit
significantly from it.
