We talk about ledgers all the time, but what is a ledger, actually? In our latest piece, we explore this question, breaking down the different types of ledgers to equip you with a clear understanding of which ledger best suits your needs. 🔶 General Ledger: Tracks financial activity for company-wide reporting, essential for compliance and financial statements. 🔶 Core Ledger: Designed for tracking virtual transactions within platforms or financial products. Maintains a real-time record of user-to-user transactions and abstract states without moving actual money. 🔶 Cash Ledger: Captures real cash flows similar to a bank statement but without assigning transaction meanings, eventually reconciled with core and general ledgers. 🔶 Sub-ledgers: Tracks specific subsets of business activity, such as individual customer-related events, ultimately feeding summarized data into other ledgers. As with any aspect of financial infrastructure, this disambiguation comes with nuances and details beyond this summary. Be sure to check out our full article to learn more (link in comments).

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆: 𝗮𝗻 𝘂𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗼 𝗶𝗻 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀 One of the best books I've ever read in business is Cialdini's "Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion" (a thank you to Andros P. for always recommending it to new joiners at Humatica). Among the 6 Principles, the Reciprocity Principle never ceases to amaze me with how it subtly shapes our interactions and behaviors. Picture this: I went out for dinner with three colleagues. We had a great time, and when the bill came, one colleague paid for everyone. Not just a courteous gesture, but a savvy move—stating, “Now we need to go out all together again!” He knew, perhaps subconsciously, that we'd feel the urge to reciprocate. And we’ll plan three more dinners, because each of us is eager to return the favor. This seemingly small act is a perfect example of how reciprocity works—connecting us personally and professionally. In business, it’s these little things that matter. Have you experienced the magic of reciprocity in your business dealings? I'd love to hear your stories! #Leadership #BusinessStrategy #StephenCovey #Reciprocity #Networking #Teamwork

Market News 7/7/2024 SUPRISE! SUPRISE! SUPRISE! The European Markets continue their surprises as France's far left comes out at the top. With Macron's party coming second and far right coming third. Our analysis: A divided parliament in France questions whether it can keep debt levels under control. France is facing a challenging fiscal position and the European Commission put France under an Excessive Deficit Procedure due to its failure to keep its budget deficit within 3% percent of GDP. The market has been volatile with 70-75 bps of French bonds over German bonds, but generally, there has not been much movement in the markets. The outcome was better than expected for many as it was better than the far-right party wins many predicted based on earlier polls. The leftist party plans to implement a 10% pay rise for civil servants, raise housing subsidies by 10%, and hire more teachers and healthcare workers. This is said to be financed by taxing the wealthy, which as the markets worry as the French government ended the year with a 5% deficit an increase from the previous year. France being the second largest economy in Europe an ample effect in the markets with a 10% move in the markets can have a change in the Stoxx 600. The real question would be how France will form the government and how they will run their legislations. With both governments planning to curb economic growth spending, but both left and right parties agreeing on different topics, there will continue to be volatility in the markets. As the PM retires, we believe the leftist party will probably have someone from their side probably their party head Jean-Luc Mélenchon take that position, who is known for his opposite stance on the Israel-Hamas war. Short-term expect some market volatility as the parties will come together to form a government, elect a president, and plan their spending and how they will finance it. Long term keep close attention to their debt levels as tax increases the question is how much, as wages with an average economic growth would need high increases in taxes, or increase deficit spending which will increase yields on the bond markets even with lower rates.
