The existence of financial intermediaries is arguably an artifact of information asymmetry. Beyond simple financial transactions, financial intermediation provides a mechanism for information transmission, which can reduce the degree of information asymmetry and consequently increase market efficiency. During the process of information transmission, the bank is able to provide unique services in the production and exchange of information. Therefore, banks have comparative advantages in information production, transmission, and utilisation. This book provides an overview of commercial banking and includes empirical methods in banking such risk and bank performance, capital regulation, bank competition and foreign bank entry, bank regulation on bank performance, and capital adequacy and deposit insurance.

Coins, banknotes, medals, seals (numismatics) --- deposit insurance --- capital adequacy --- bank risk --- foreign bank entry --- bank competition --- H-statistics --- pooled regression --- dynamic panel models --- risk-taking behavior --- banks --- efficiency --- data envelopment analysis --- Asia-Pacific --- regulations --- bank capital --- meta-analysis --- Bayesian model-averaging --- capital regulation --- competition --- Indian banking sector --- panel data --- revenue diversification --- bank risks --- bank performance --- net interest income --- non-interest income --- risks --- capital

Appropriate nutrition is a cornerstone of preventive gerontology. This Special Issue of Nutrients provides new insights on nutritional assessment and potential modifications of nutritional behaviours and supplements to prevent age-associated disorders and to increase life expectancy in different populations of older subjects. It includes five original articles and four systematic reviews. This Special Issue presents several aspects of the assessment of nutritional status and the prevention and treatment of nutritional deficiencies in different populations of older adults. Undoubtedly, future research will deepen our knowledge on this crucial public health issue.
