give details of new pension scheme offered by Indian Bank Association?

What is the background in which alleged Indian black money in Swiss bank had come down to $2.5 billion..? from the earlier estimates like: Swiss Banking Association report, 2006 details bank deposits in the territory of Switzerland by nationals of following countries : Top Five 1. India ---- $1,456 billion 2. Russia ---$ 470 billion 3. UK -------$390 billion 4. Ukraine - $100 billion 5. China -----$ 96 billion A recent news says: Indians may have over $ 2.5 bn in Swiss banks Press Trust Of India Posted on Jul 25, 2011 Geneva: It's official now - Indians hold about $ 2.5 billion (over Rs 11,000 crore) in Swiss banks, but this figure of Switzerland's central bank may be a gross understatement of the total wealth directly and indirectly held there by entities from India. The ever-growing judicial scrutiny and political outcry over alleged stashing of black money in Swiss banks also seems to be forcing Indian entities to move their monies to other safe havens like the Middle East, Singapore and Mauritius. Some half a billion dollars have been moved out in the last three years, according to the central bank's figures. Now what are your thoughts? Is apex court's apprehensions of lax action by Govt to track black money in tax havens proved true? Is govt helping culprits in their fold to take away their deposits before the govt is pressurised to step in, to do something? Dilli thanks for the info about the misinfo under circulation! 1. But the fact remains that India is losing nearly Rs.240 crore every 24 hours, on average, in illegal financial flows out of the country. The nation lost $213 billion* (roughly Rs.9.7 lakh crore) in illegal capital flight between 1948 and 2008. However, over $125 billion (Rs.5.7 lakh crore) of that was lost in just this decade between 2000-2008, according to a study by Global Financial Integrity (GFI)…. The Hindu November 17, 2010 http://www.thehindu.com/opinion/op-ed/article892140.ece 2. Again your trying to balance the blame among Govt and anti Govt players is also interesting! Indeed I read the following info in an article recently in Dinamani Daily (Dinamani 15.07.2011) too: From 2006-7 to 2009-10 petro companiess have realized a hefty profit of Rs.1,26 lakh crores! Similarly, the govt had earned tax revenue to a hefty level of Rs 3.91 lakh crores from 2005-6 to 2009-10 according to govt statistics itself, besides contd.. besides the dividend from profits, royalty etc accrued to govt! In the same 5 year period, the states have also earned a sizeable income of Rs 72000 crores from petro business according to govt statistics, says PSM Rao (Freelance Columnist and Consultant mfi and livelihood issues) author of the article! Still the govt is bluffing that they have to grant subsidies to balance the ‘’heavy losses’’ to petro companies! You also had raised a Q on this in January this year citing article of the same columnist in DNA: http://in.answers.yahoo.com/question/ind… Thanks for the useful inputs!

Coming from the Swiss Banks could this be true ? Swiss bank revealed India has more money than rest of the world This is so shocking.. ..If black money deposits was an Olympics event.. India would have won a gold medal hands down. The second best Russia has 4 times lesser deposit. U.S. is not even there in the counting in top five! India has more money in Swiss banks than all the other countries combined! Recently, due to international pressure, the Swiss government agreed to disclose the names of the account holders only if the respective governments formally asked for it.. Indian government is not asking for the details... ..no marks for guessing why? We need to start a movement to pressurize the government to do so! This is perhaps the only way, and a golden opportunity, to expose the high and mighty and weed out corruption! Please read on and forward to all the honest Indians to like somebody is forwarding to you... and build a ground-swell of support for action ! Is India poor, who says? Ask the Swiss banks. With personal account deposit bank of $1,500 billion in foreign reserve which have been misappropriated, an amount 13 times larger than the country's foreign debt, one needs to rethink if India is a poor country? DISHONEST INDUSTRIALISTS, scandalous politicians and corrupt IAS, IRS, IPS officers have deposited in foreign banks in their illegal personal accounts a sum of about $1500 billion, which have been misappropriated by them. This amount is about 13 times larger than the country's foreign debt. With this amount 45 crore poor people can get Rs 1,00,000 each. This huge amount has been appropriated from the people of India by exploiting and betraying them. Once this huge amount of black money and property comes back to India , the entire foreign debt can be repaid in 24 hours. After paying the entire foreign debt, we will have surplus amount, almost 12 times larger than the foreign debt. If this surplus amount is invested in earning interest, the amount of interest will be more than the annual budget of the Central government. So even if all the taxes are abolished, then also the Central government will be able to maintain the country very comfortably. Some 80,000 people travel to Switzerland every year, of whom 25,000 travel very frequently. 'Obviously, these people won't be tourists.. They must be travelling there for some other reason, believes an official involved in tracking illegal money. And, clearly, he isn't referring to the commerce ministry bureaucrats who've been flitting in and out of Geneva ever since the World Trade Organization (WTO) negotiations went into a tailspin! Just read the following details and note how these dishonest industrialists, scandalous politicians, corrupt officers, cricketers, film actors, illegal sex trade and protected wildlife operators, to name just a few, sucked this country's wealth and prosperity. This may be the picture of deposits in Swiss banks only. What about other international banks ? Black money in Swiss banks - Swiss Banking Association report, 2006 details bank deposits in the territory of Switzerland by nationals of following countries : TOP FIVE INDIA $1,456 BILLION RUSSIA $470 BILLION U.K. $390 BILLION UKRAINE $100 BILLION CHINA $96 BILLION

Auckland Eastern Cricket Association felicitates.......? VVS Laxman, the Prince Charming of cricket. Sachin is the universal currency the Indian cricket banks on, but Laxman occupies a special place in the hearts of cricket lovers. he has hurt the best of attacks but fans of those countries still love him. Sachin is perhaps the greatest batsman ever: at times, Laxman has played as well as, if not better than the master. Your thoughts on one of the most stylish batsmen of the modern era. Edit: Man of Honour, I was just reading the q you had posted sometime back. We all know where you are from. Some may argue many Indians live in Australia.. I agree, but their English can't be this bad. So, if you get some pleasure out of this , please do it, but leave us out of this: we have no issues with S Africans or the decent Australians. Edit: I am taking back the above words. I understand the so called man of honour is an Indian; the spelling mistakes are intentional and the intentions are clear.

Is there anyone who wants a trustworthy Indian partner with diversified skill for business relationship?

Public loot since 1947: Can we bring back our money? It is one of the biggest loots witnessed by mankind -- the loot of the Aam Aadmi (common man) since 1947, by his brethren occupying public office. It has been orchestrated by politicians, bureaucrats and some businessmen. The list is almost all-encompassing. No wonder, everyone in India loots with impunity and without any fear. What is even more depressing in that this ill-gotten wealth of ours has been stashed away abroad into secret bank accounts located in some of the world's best known tax havens. And to that extent the Indian economy has been stripped of its wealth. Ordinary Indians may not be exactly aware of how such secret accounts operate and what are the rules and regulations that go on to govern such tax havens. However, one may well be aware of 'Swiss bank accounts,' the shorthand for murky dealings, secrecy and of course pilferage from developing countries into rich developed ones. In fact, some finance experts and economists believe tax havens to be a conspiracy of the western world against the poor countries. By allowing the proliferation of tax havens in the twentieth century,

His Excellency, The Chief Justice of Madras High Court, Senior Citizen’s plight for justice and protection of the Sanctity of Courts. Case Study. Cheque bounce case. CC827/06, with Saidapet XXIII Court, Chennai. Most Respected Sir, We expect fair and timely delivery of justice, Sir. Those who drag the case cunningly with extended times to be severely punished. If we literates and enlightened citizens don’t value “ TIME ” The accused, meanwhile, multiplies the innocents hard-earned money. Please have mercy on the innocents who have no political link gets neglected, continues to incur money, effort, time to recover our hard-earned money. CASE STUDY 10th September 2004. Rupees One Lakh Cash paid to Mr. R Ramamurthy, to meet his emergent needs, friendly help extended after breaking my Fixed –Deposit. He promised me to pay cash earlier itself and take back his Post Dated Cheque No. 542212 dt. 20-03-2005, of Indian Bank, Raja Annamalaipuram East, Chennai-600028, assuring that he can never forget this kind help but a friendly betrayal. After lapse of six long months i.e. 3 days prior to cashing the cheque, Mr.K R Ramamurthy approached me ( i.e. 16th March 2005 ) asking me not to present the cheque for realization but for upto 14th April 2005, for which I did ask him to put a written request, accordingly he gave me a written letter of request dated the 17th March 2005. Subsequently, he sent me an e-mail, asking me to present on the 19th April 2005. Despite the waiting, the same when presented for realization, bounced back for insufficient funds. The same notified to Mr. Ramamurthy, who regretted for the same in words and promised to make payment soon, as he said, “ expecting the settlement of his partition dues, pertaining to his parental property at Madurai”, and a flat for his disposal in Kodambakkam, while his wife is the President of the Flat owners association where he lives. After which he was only giving dates and alas I was constrained to recover my hard-earned money through the court of law. Later on from verification of credentials, I came to know that whatever he said were all false. His family is on rent and therefore the question of his wife being the President of the Flat owners Assoc. doesn’t at all arise. My earlier vision of Mr. Ramamurthy being from a respectable Brahmin-family turned out to be a well planned cheat, trying to earn in short cuts, making use of the loopholes in the system. He has his own specialized advocate, influencing with politicians of the ruling government (previous and at present) etc. He gets exempted from attending courts, availing all means of delay tactics, which includes delaying in the listing of the file suit onwards, use of liberal adjournments, applying for quash petition(which was dismissed by the Honorable Justice K N Basha Crl.O.P. No.25241 of 2006 and M.P.No.1 of 2006 (Re-Criminal Original Petition filed under Sec.484 of Cr.P.C. to call for the records and quash the proceedings in C.C. No.827 of 2006, on the file of the learned XXIII Metropolitan Magistrate Court, Saidapet, Chennai-600015). The case was at the defence stage admittedly the complainants witness was over, no justification for entertaining the quashing petition. QUASHING PETITION IS DISMISSED AS DEVOID OF MERITS. The learned XXXIII Metropolitan Magistrate was further directed to expedite the trial as expeditiously as possible and more particularly within a period of five months from the date of receipt of this order (24-07-2007). Then on, the advocates of either side colluded. Adjournments continued liberally as the accused was exempted from attending court hearing dates, while self a heart patient declared hyper-tension and lost his job on medical grounds in 1993, while with the Govt.’s, Shipping Corporation of India Ltd; and continue to be under treatment from then on. Regularly attending courts to recover my hard-earned money, put into hardships by the harassment and caused humiliation, during the course of my attempts to recover my money. On 30-11.2007, my Case No. CC No.827/06, referred to LOK ADALAT saying for instant order. Both sides present. The matter settled at Rs.1,05,000/- only towards full and final settlement with initial payment of Rs.50,000/-and balance of Rs.55,000 (rupees fifty fivethousand only), on or before 26-02-2008,

Why Manmohan Singh's government trying to safeguard interests of foreigners by entering into FTA? read details? Manmohan singh government entered into a FTA(Free trade agreement) between India and the ASEAN(Association of south east Asian nations. if this agreement is implemented , it would hit economy of India. the worst hit would be kerala's rubber growers and coconut growers. This agreement would safeguard the interests of Malaysia and srilanka at the cost of Indian economy. all the financial sectors of Indian economy(banking, insurance) and other industries, would be at peril. http://www.24dunia.com/english-news/search/FTA-India.html

What does this mean about Palaeolithic and Mesolithic people? Hi friends, I see this article, I find interesting, I have been to this place called Goa in Indian. It has Fantastic History like all of India Archeologists have found tools that suggest occupation of sites in Goa along the upstream Mandovi that date from the early palaeolithic to mesolithic stages. (Mesozoic is the geological era that extended from about 225 million years ago to about 65 million years ago. It followed the Palaeozoic era.) Marine archaeologist A.S.Gaur of the National Institute of Oceanography and M. Nambirajan of the Archaeological Survey of India have undertaken a study of pre-historic sites on river banks and ports of Goa in potential areas. “Field survey in Goa has indicated a concentration of prehistoric sites along the coast and in the Mandovi-Zuari river basin. Some sites are reported on other river banks too,” reported Gaur and Nambirajan. Their work has been encouraged by a number of recent finds reported in Goa. At Rivona, on the banks of the Kushavati river, mesolithic tools were found, while a site of neoliths has been reported at Chicalim. Most significant findings of recent times are rock carvings found at Usgalimol and Kajur on the banks of the Kushavati river. These carvings include symbols of the Zebu bull, a dancing female figure, a horned animal, harpoon and sex symbols. Their date is disputed, varying from the upper palaeolithic to megalithic period. Chandrapura in South Goa, now the sleepy village of Chandor, is another ancient site, whose earliest known epigraphical reference is in the Siroda copper plates of the Bhoja dysnasty. Some scholars have discounted the view that the city was founded by Chandraditya, a son of a Chalukyan king, and point to its earlier association with the Arab Sindabur. Finds including potsherd, bricks and copper coins are assignable to the Satavahanas, who probably ruled the Konkan from the end of the second century of the current era. This was on a website, So please explain more if you can share knowledge with me thank you

malaysian maika company could have made rm 400,000,000? COME, LORD JESUS, ================ SOME 30 YEARS AGO THE MALAYSIAN INDIAN CONGRESS ASK MALAYSIAN INDIANS TO INVEST IN MAIKA COMPANY. SO FROM THE 2,000,000 INDIANS ABOUT RM 100,000,000 WAS COLLECTED. THESE MONEY WAS INVESTED IN INSURANCE, LAND AND OTHER THINGS. BECAUSE TOO MANY COOKS SPOIL THE FOOD MAIKA ENDED UP IN DEBTS. IF MIC LEADERS HAVE INVESTED THOSE RM 100 MILLION IN BANK RAAYAT AT INTEREST RATE OF 10% THEY COULD HAVE MADE RM 10,000,000 PER YEAR. IN 30 YEARS THEY COULD HAVE MADE ABOUT RM 300,000,000. HENCE, COMBINE THE RM 100 MILLION AND INTERSET OF RM 300 MILLION IT WILL COME TO RM 400,000,000 PRECISELY. ONE BITTER LESSON WE LEARN FROM MAIKA MISMANAGEMENT IS THAT IF YOU DO NOT KNOW ABOUT BUSINESS THEN PLEASE PUT THE MONEY IN FIXED DEPOSIT BOX. YOU WOULD HAVE GOT 10% INTEREST OR MORE BY SIGNING AN AGREEMENT WITH BANK RAAYAT IN 1980. AS FOR THE MALAYSIAN CHINESE ASSOCIATION OR MCA WELL BUSINESS IS IN THEIR BLOOD. MCA COMPANY IS NOW WORTH RM 2,000,000,000 ON THE MALAYSIAN STOCK MARKET? FINALLY, MALAYSIAN INDIANS SHOULD STICK TO COMPUTER REVOLULATION BECAUSE IT IS A GIFT FROM GOD. TIME MAGAZINE ONCE SAID AMERICAN ARE ADDICTED TO COMPUTER BUT THE INDIANS CONTROL THE COMPUTER? MIC SHOULD ASK ALL MALAYSIAN INDIANS TO COME UP WITH BILLIONS OF SOFTWARES THAT CAN PRODUCE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS. HOTMAIL WAS PRODUCE BY BHATIA FROM BANGALOW INDIA AND MICROSOFT PAID HIM US 400 MILLION BUT THE MARKET PRICE WAS US$ 6 BILLION DOLLARS. WHERE ARE YOUR CONSULTANTS? MR. SABEER BHATIA AND MR. JACK SMITH FOUNDED HOTMAIL AND TODAY IT HAS ABOUT 360,000,000 MEMBERS WORLDWIDE. MAIKA HOLDING HAS NOW BEEN TAKEN OVER BY GTEAM COMPANY. G Team, incorporated on Jan 29, 2010 has a paid-up capital of RM2 and is 50% owned by Westports Malaysia Sdn Bhd executive chairman Tan Sri G. Gnanalingam while the other half is owned by Datuk S. Kunasingam, executive director of HSS Integrated Sdn Bhd. IT IS A GOOD IDEA IF CHAIRMAN TAN SRI G. GNANALINGAM COULD USE THE RM 100 MILLION AND INVEST IN "MALAYSIAN SCHOOL OF NETWORKING" BECAUSE MALAYSIAN INDIAN WORKERS WILL HAVE RM 200 IN THIER POCKET PER DAY BY VISITING HOUSES AND REPAIRING COMPUTERS. IN ONE MONTH IT WILL COME TO RM 6,000. IN ONE YEARS IT WILL COME TO RM 72,000. IN 10 YEARS IT WILL COME TO RM 720,000 IN 30 YEARS IT WILL COME TO RM 2,160,000 BY THE TIME THOSE MALAYSIAN INDIAN WORKER RETIRE AT 50 YEARS OLD THEY WOULD HAVE IN THE BANK ACCOUNT RM 2,000,000.

I was trying to collect suggestions from the Yahoo users, because I want to send ONE name to Presidnet and Prime Minister through my not for profit social cause organization as a request. So far these two names are on the top of the list. FRIENDS, REQUEST TO PLEASE SUGGEST ONLY NON-POLITICIANS. THANK-YOU FOR YOUR HELP. AND ALSO PLEASE POST YOUR VIEWS WHY THAT INDIVIDUAL SHOULD BE AWARDED WITH BHARAT-RATN WITH FACTS. WHAT THAT INDIVIDUAL HAS DONE FOR THE NATION? Thank-you gayemala and ap, Mr. Nagavara Ramarao Narayana Murthy is defienetely a potential candidate. Thanks Let the world live in peace, for your suggestion on Mr. Ratan Tata. But I think you have given the answer yourself. Most of the projects for social cause are started by JRD not by Mr. Ratan Tata. And I also think, Mr. Ratan Tata will be anyways awarded by Bharat Ratn, in future by Indian government as he is a big media fame too. I admire him a lot personally. SO FAR I HAVE TWO ADDITIONAL SUGGESITONS, MR NARAYAN MOORTHI AND MR. RATAN TATA. GUYS, DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS?

Why Manmohan Singh's government trying to safeguard interests of foreigners by entering into FTA? read details? Manmohan singh government entered into a FTA(Free trade agreement) between India and the ASEAN(Association of south east Asian nations. if this agreement is implemented , it would hit economy of India. the worst hit would be kerala's rubber growers and coconut growers. This agreement would safeguard the interests of Malaysia and srilanka at the cost of Indian economy. all the financial sectors of Indian economy(banking, insurance) and other industries, would be at peril. http://www.24dunia.com/english-news/search/FTA-India.html http://www.mail-archive.com/greenyouth@googlegroups.com/msg09482.html

What does this mean about Palaeolithic and Mesolithic people? Hi friends, I see this article, I find interesting, I have been to this place called Goa in Indian. It has Fantastic History like all of India Archeologists have found tools that suggest occupation of sites in Goa along the upstream Mandovi that date from the early palaeolithic to mesolithic stages. (Mesozoic is the geological era that extended from about 225 million years ago to about 65 million years ago. It followed the Palaeozoic era.) Marine archaeologist A.S.Gaur of the National Institute of Oceanography and M. Nambirajan of the Archaeological Survey of India have undertaken a study of pre-historic sites on river banks and ports of Goa in potential areas. “Field survey in Goa has indicated a concentration of prehistoric sites along the coast and in the Mandovi-Zuari river basin. Some sites are reported on other river banks too,” reported Gaur and Nambirajan. Their work has been encouraged by a number of recent finds reported in Goa. At Rivona, on the banks of the Kushavati river, mesolithic tools were found, while a site of neoliths has been reported at Chicalim. Most significant findings of recent times are rock carvings found at Usgalimol and Kajur on the banks of the Kushavati river. These carvings include symbols of the Zebu bull, a dancing female figure, a horned animal, harpoon and sex symbols. Their date is disputed, varying from the upper palaeolithic to megalithic period. Chandrapura in South Goa, now the sleepy village of Chandor, is another ancient site, whose earliest known epigraphical reference is in the Siroda copper plates of the Bhoja dysnasty. Some scholars have discounted the view that the city was founded by Chandraditya, a son of a Chalukyan king, and point to its earlier association with the Arab Sindabur. Finds including potsherd, bricks and copper coins are assignable to the Satavahanas, who probably ruled the Konkan from the end of the second century of the current era. This was on a website, So please explain more if you can share knowledge with me thank you

If the World was so Safe before Bush took Office,How do you Explain this List??????? American Victims of Mideast Terrorist Attacks -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The following is a listing of incidents in which Americans are known to have been killed by Middle East-based terrorists. The list will be updated as more information becomes available. The exact number of American casualties is difficult to calculate because of incomplete news reports regarding numbers and nationalities of those injured. The toll from the September 11, 2001, attack on the World Trade Center is also uncertain, but current figures place the number of dead above 3,000. The number of dead at the Pentagon and on the hijacked airliners numbered approximately 385. Since Yasser Arafat "renounced" violence in the Oslo Peace Accords on September 13, 1993, at least 53 Americans have been murdered and at least another 83 Americans have been injured by Palestinian terrorism. Excluding the September 11 attacks, approximately 700 Americans have been killed and 1,600 wounded in terrorist attacks since 1970. This list also includes injured Americans since Oslo 1993. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- February 23, 1970, Halhoul, West Bank.

April 12, 1984, Torrejon, Spain. Hizballah bombed a restaurant near an U.S. Air Force base in Torrejon, Spain, wounding 83 people. September 20, 1984, Beirut, Lebanon.

The terrorists forced the pilot to fly to Tehran where the terrorists murdered two passengers--American Agency for International Development employees, Charles Hegna and William Stanford. Although an Iranian special unit ended the incident by storming the plane and arresting the terrorists, the Iranian government might also have been involved in the hijacking. June 14, 1985, Between Athens and Rome. Two Hizballah members hijacked a TWA flight en route to Rome from Athens and forced the pilot to fly to Beirut. The terrorists, believed to belong to Hizballah, asked for the release of members of the group Kuwait 17 and 700 Shi'ite prisoners held in Israeli and South Lebanese prisons. The eight crewmembers and 145 passengers were held for 17 days during which one of the hostages, Robert Stethem, a U.S. Navy diver, was murdered.

is there someone that could check me this translation in English??I'm italian girl!! thanks? Wall Street is surely the more road note of Manhattan (perhaps in the whole New York) and is undoubtedly one of the most famous itineraries in the whole United States of America. His/her century-old fame is tied up to double thread with the world of the purse and the economy, so much that today Wall Street has become some whole American financial apparatus synonymous. The New York Stock Exchange (abbr. NYSE) - that you/he/she has had the first house really in Wall Street - the greatest purse is not alone to the world, but it represents one of the principal poles of the global economy. If what I dictate it is known to the majority of the people, not everybody perhaps knows that her "road of the wall" according to the principal tradition it owes not his/her own episodes name really pacific. During Six hundred, in fact, Wall Street coincided with the northern border in New Amsterdam: to that epoch the "wall" it was not then still a real wall and the threshold of the Dutch possessions it was above all a sort of fence. The wall was subsequently strengthened for defending the European establishment from the attack of various Indian tribes and then, accomplice the increase of the tension with the English competitors, around halves Six hundred the paling became a wall that you/he/she would have reached more or less today the floor of the first floor of the modern buildings of the road. Obviously, for his/her construction, you/they were used for him/it more than the African slaves. The "wall" crowds up to the end of the century (1699), when they were really the English to demolish him/it: what didn't succeed in demolishing, nevertheless, it was really the reputation that surrounded the zone notoriety that is extended in the centuries up to the new millennium. In reality, when the episodes happened just remembered, Wall Street was the road of the "wall" only for its inhabitants, but it was not still the Wall Street symbol of the American financial markets for the rest of the world. The imposing advent of the money on the eyelash of the road is to refer to a few decades later, when the road in Manhattan became the principal artery of the commercial environment of the city. Toward the end of the Seven hundred one on the edge of the same street the dealers' association newyorkesi was born, that would have brought well soon the Exchange in New York to the birth in the New York Stock Exchange. Formally the Exchange newyorkese (New York Stock and Exchange Board) is born March 8th 1817, in a building to the number 40 of Wall Street, with president Anthony Stockholm. In reality that first form organizational stock-exchange other was not that a sort of closed box, in which the possibility of the negotiation of the titles was fruit of a procedure of access that involved the already present members. From this episode it also has origin one of the more important financial newspapers of the world, the "Wall Street Journal," what it is born as informative bulletin for the associates of the organization of the commerce. Wall Street became well soon the center of all the financial attractions of the city, and different financial institutions took center in the old road of the wall. Different they are also the sad episodes that increased the fame of Wall Street during the Nine hundred. You/they can be remembered, on everybody, two events of the first halves the century. It is the 16 September of 1920 when, after a letter of warning, a device is made to explode in front of the number 23 of Wall Street, center of J.P. Morgan, provoking 38 corpses and hurting over 300 people; the history attributed to some anarchic groups the attack, although is never made things clear on the guilty Royal of the crime. Different they were also the meanings connected to the event: the bomb was made in fact to explode really in front of the center of the society of the most famous banker, that John Pierpont Morgan, dead as soon as seven years before in Rome, mind of some of the most important societies of the sector already from the second halves the eight hundred (he remembers, for instance, the operation that brought to the birth of U.S. Steel). To JP Morgan the creation of the General Electric ("give ashes" societarie of Edison General Electric and Thompson. Houson Electric Company) is owed besides, besides the support to the birth of some among the most important firms of the epoch. Nine years later, in 1929, the name of Wall Street ties him instead to the great crisis that strikes the stock market of the Country, and to the serious depression that immediately followed. To remember it is also the 1987 stock-exchange crack. The 19 October of that year, rechristened "black Monday", the index Dow Jones Industrial Average went down of over 22%, a recorded loss never during the whole century and provoked by a sudden wave of sales. The 1987 collapse also had evident repercussions on the European and Asian purses: nevertheless it was avoided (accomplice above all the action of the Central Banks) that such fold could have disastrous counterblows for the world financial system as during the depression been born by the collapse of the '29. From the end of the eight hundred to today Wall Street you/he/she has become so important that its name is symbol of important business, it is synonymous of the financial markets of the nation and it is also word ricollegabile to the American financial institutions. The testimony of its great growth is also in the numbers. In 1800 the present companies to the NYSE were only 295, and of these solo 20 publicly had the negotiable titles. In 1900 the biggest rated firm was the U.S. Steel (behind which were the operations financed by J.P. Morgan), but other firms quickly grew also: AT&T, Kellogg, Gamble, Eastman Kodak, Westinghouse. Today besides the evolution in the New York Stock Exchange, to Wall Street it is present also another principal stock exchange, the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation, better known with the name of NASDAQ, founded to Wall Street in 1971 and climbed to the footlights of the chronicle especially in the last years, besides following the burst of the bead of the "new economy." Today it is still possible to observe as the biggest firms of the sector has not his/her own center away from Wall Street, and however in the outskirts in Manhattan, although recently he is verifying a tendency to the move in the other zones of the city. Beyond his/her architecture and of his/her own geographical removal, mostly what counts in Wall Street it is what her "road of the wall" it represents, or rather the environment economic financial U.S. citizen for excellence, sign of the capitalistic economic system and the beloved-hated one "god money."
