This book aims to investigate a long-term strategy for sustainable urban logistics. The literature evidence exhibits that considerable research on urban logistics lacks long-term planning and rarely considers the urban spatial development and integration of urban distribution innovations. Currently, 11 distribution innovations can be used for future sustainable urban freight transport. According to a systematic discussion, this book formulates the conceptual model of Sustainable Inner-urban Intermodal Transportation (SIUIT) for future urban logistics. Moreover, a comprehensive analysis illustrates that future integrations of distribution innovations comprise operational and technological integration. To this end, the morphological analysis method is employed to discuss their feasible solutions based on the SIUIT model. After that, combined with the trend exploration of urban spatial development on large- and megacities, this book constructs the 2.x Modula & Sustainable Urban Freight Network to improve the flexibility of the future sustainable logistics transformation. About the Author Dr. rer. pol. Zhangyuan He graduated from the University of Bremen. He currently undertakes postdoctoral research at the School of Urban Planning and Design, Peking University.

In market structure, we tend to be equity focused, but one of the challenges is liquidity creation. This book examines liquidity creation and regulation. Based on the Baruch College Financial Markets Conference, Liquidity: How to Find it, Regulate it, Get it, this book examines the following questions: Where does liquidity come from? How should liquidity be supplied? What is needed when creating a new platform to provide an environment of liquidity? How do you prepare for liquidity provision concerning market investors, regulatory infrastructure, and technical infrastructure? How do you create liquidity in different asset classes? What is the role of the alternative trading system (ATS) structure within the exchange regulatory framework? What global trends are affecting liquidity creation? Also covered are the popularity of indexing, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and Robo-advisers (Robos); how technology is transforming liquidity provision, mid and small-cap liquidity provision and new approaches to liquidity creation. An interview with Former Commissioner of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Michael S. Piwowar is also featured. The Zicklin School of Business Financial Markets Series presents the insights emerging from a sequence of conferences hosted by the Zicklin School at Baruch College for industry professionals, regulators, and scholars. Much more than historical documents, the transcripts from the conferences are edited for clarity, perspective and context; material and comments from subsequent interviews with the panellists and speakers are integrated for a complete thematic presentation. Each book is focused on a well delineated topic, but all deliver broader insights into the quality and efficiency of the U.S. equity markets and the dynamic forces changing them.

This book provides basic knowledge and understanding for successful sports sponsorship. The structure of the book is based on the individual phases of analysis, planning, implementation and monitoring of sponsorship concepts. The planning process with its individual phases is presented as an introduction to the classification of sponsorship as an element of sports marketing and the various forms of sports sponsorship. Building on this, the situation analysis, target definition, target group planning, strategic orientation, budgeting, selection of sponsorships, integration into the communication mix and sponsorship mix, design of sponsorships, success control, legal aspects, services of sports agencies and trends in the use of sports sponsorship are the subject of detailed treatment. In a concluding chapter, the 2022 FIFA World Cup is used as an opportunity to highlight the critical points of contention in the discussion about sports sponsorship of major events. The question of conclusions for future sporting events is also raised. In order to not only propagate a tangible practical relevance, but to have it underpinned by experts, the authors have agreed to cooperate with the sponsorship association “S20 - The Sponsors' Voice” (Germany) with regard to the inclusion of case studies in the book. Swiss companies also took part in the case studies. Numerous examples - such as Allianz SE, Bell Food Group AG, Deutsche Kreditbank AG (DKB), Deutsche Telekom AG, HypoVereinsbank/UniCredit Bank AG, ING Deutschland, Mercedes-Benz AG, Novartis International AG, Penny Markt GmbH (REWE Group), Raiffeisen Schweiz, Viessmann Climate Solutions SE, Warsteiner Brauerei Haus Cramer KG - illustrate what successful sports sponsorship can look like and provide concrete suggestions for its implementation.

In particular, the challenges posed by digitalization and globalization are considered and substantiated with the help of empirical studies.
