Government plans to boost fund industry

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain has launched a campaign to attract more investment fund money to the country, with plans for tax breaks, cutting red tape and marketing campaigns in Asia and the Americas.

In speeches to fund management executives on Tuesday afternoon, Treasury ministers Sajid Javid and Greg Clark said they aim to reverse a weakening of the UK's dominance as a centre for the funds industry.

While London and Edinburgh are the locations for teams of fund managers at firms such as Schroders and Aberdeen Asset Management, more funds are domiciled in Dublin and Luxembourg.

According to Lipper, a Thomson Reuters company that tracks the funds industry, around $1.24 trillion (817.56 billion pounds) of mutual fund assets are domiciled in Dublin and $2.8 trillion in Luxembourg compared with around $1.1 trillion in the UK.

Clark said the government's strategy will focus on more efficient and transparent taxation, while new financial watchdog the FCA will seek to cut red tape around obtaining fund authorisation.

"We also promise to consult closely with industry to ensure that opportunities to minimise costs and maximise benefits are identified and implemented," Clark said.

He also said the government will seek to promote the UK as a fund management centre, running a marketing campaign targeting investors in Asia and the Americas.

The government first announced in March that it was targeting mutual fund money domiciled in Ireland and Luxembourg with tax sweeteners.

Earlier on Tuesday, Clark told delegates at an industry seminar in London the government plans a similar boost for Britain's insurance industry.

Making Best Use of the Internet: How to Manage an Online Business ...

- By Laura Mauney

Running a successful business on the Internet, or simply integrating the Internet into a traditional business strategy, requires the same rigor, attention to detail, regular maintenance and financial sensibility as running any brick and mortar operation.

Additionally, businesses now face new opportunities via the Internet?s fastest growing medium, mobile technology.

HOW TO MAINTAIN A STRONG WEB PRESENCE:
Brand comprehensively across all the top search portals and social media sites; Deploy multi-channel, integrated advertising strategies; Make sure the company website exploits the correct technical SEO tactics in the HTML so that search engines can find the site; Make sure the company website incorporates the correct CSS code and view port meta tags in the head section of each webpage so the site will display correctly on tablets and smartphones; Stay tech savvy and very current with ever-changing web standards; Monitor outcomes and tweak strategies for optimization and ROI improvement; Manage expectations realistically.
WARNING: The most critical NON-action is to fall prey to the ?get rich quick,? ?going viral,? ?huge IPO? mythology that misleads many business owners into thinking they have failed on the internet when in reality no such thing has happened.

The big time success of dominant internet players like Facebook, Google, Bing, and Yahoo, and the massive internet popularity of politicians and celebrities like President Obama, Lady Gaga, and kittens, etal, though fabulous for the parties involved, ranks with winning the lottery in the real world of online success.

In other words, runaway online success doesn?t happen to every enterprise. Most Internet success is built the same way as good old-fashioned brick and mortar success, through diligent work, quality offerings, and sound business management.

The Internet Offers Three Primary Uses for Businesses:

1. Online advertising and information about a brick and mortar establishment;
2. Online lead generation and/or sales via an electronic catalog and shopping cart;
3. A combination of brick and mortar advertising and online sales.

Either way, at a minimum, every business should have:

If TV advertising is part of a company?s marketing strategy, post online versions of the same ads via YouTube and other top video channels.

Companies that possess original images or set up promos for products, or that plan to proactively publish articles and promotions on the web, can establish even more far-reaching presence via other popular social media and blog channels, like Tumblr, Pinterest, and Twitter.

With social media and microblog pages especially, ongoing updates (once a day or every few days is best practice) will keep followers mindful of the business. Product promos and special offers should be posted more frequently to capture the widest possible audience.

HOW TO USE THE INTERNET TO GROW A BUSINESS:

Run websites like newspapers, keeping information up to date on a regular basis. Don?t make people call for information. Post everything possible on the site. Consumers are more likely to move on to competitor sites when they don?t find what they want. Describe products and services clearly, in a well organized fashion. Post pricing for products or services. Post insurance affiliations for medical facilities. For a brick and mortar office or store, post the address, phone, and business hours in the header and footer of every page. If a phone number is posted, make sure voicemail answering is set up to take calls or deliver information both during and after business hours.

What Explains the Recent Outbreak of Tornadoes?

Tornado season has been relatively quiet this year. There were only 72 tornadoes nationwide in April, 70 percent below the 10 year average, according to the Weather Channel. But within in the last week, tornado outbreaks have been erupting from North Texas to Minnesota.

Why do these tornadoes seem to be hitting all of a sudden?

An eastward advancing cold front is to blame. This pocket of cold air has run into warm air from the Gulf of Mexico. Like a wedge, the cold front has caused the warm air to rise, since it's less dense, said Jeff Weber, a scientist with the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo.

"It's kind of the perfect setup," Weber told LiveScience.

This rising warm air has created thunderstorms that have in turn spawned tornadoes, which draw their rotation from the system's abundant wind shear, which is a change in wind speed and direction with altitude. In this case, winds have blown north off the Gulf of Mexico, and interacted with currents moving east along with the cold front, Weber said. This helps create swirling gyres that can be flipped vertically and create tornadoes, he said. [Infographic: Tornado! How, When & Where Twisters Form]

This follows a relatively calm spring that saw few tornadoes, which is largely due to unusually cold temperatures throughout much of the country. The cold can in turn be blamed on the fact that the jet stream, the ribbon of wind that stretches across the Northern Hemisphere, dipped farther south than usual. This brought with it frigid Arctic air and prevented warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico from advancing northward.

Last week, with the jet stream shifting north and the atmosphere more conducive to tornado formation, an outbreak of an estimated 16 twisters erupted in North Texas on May 15. The tornadoes ranged in strength from an EF-1 in the town of Millsap that caused damage to roofs, to an EF-4 in Granbury that completely destroyed houses.

The Texas tornadoes were worsened by the fact that the jet stream dipped south during this outbreak, adding extra rotational power to the twisters, Weber said.

In the next few days, this system should soon weaken, Weber said. That's because the center of the cold front's circulation is now over Minnesota and Wisconsin, and warm air has filled the center of the country. This means there will be less interaction between masses of cold and warm air, which fuel tornadoes' destructive power, Weber said.

The Weather Channel stat comes from a tweet by meteorologist Mike Bettes.?
