To make, in short, more in tune with reality, according to the ambition of the group. So you type "taj mahal"? Google offers, in a box right, to limit the results to the famous Indian monument, a singer using this pseudonym or a casino in New Jersey of the same name. Also new is learned as well as the results page of Google as the Taj Mahal is a white marble mausoleum located in Agra, India, it opened in 1648 and it is 174 meters high. Research "Taj Mahal" is associated with that of "Ustad Ahmad Lahauri," the name of the architect of the monument.

"This is not just a catalog of objects is a presentation of the relationships between them. One is understanding between these different elements is the key, "says Amit Singhal, Google's vice president. To add to these changes a lighter note, Google will also offer information on the unusual subject of research. Consequence: the user can get answers to their questions without leaving the Google page.

Behind these new features lies a technology: the "graph of knowledge," or "knowledge graph", "built to understand the real things of the world," says an official from Google, Ben Gomes payday advances. The group has worked there since the acquisition in 2010, the company specializes in managing Metaweb database of movies, books, companies or celebrities. Thus, Google has learned, and quickly: from Freebase, Wikipedia or the CIA World Factbook, the giant has registered 500 million objects, places, characters and memorized some 3.5 billion relations between them.

Update Bing last week

In parallel, the group has expanded his knowledge on user searches. Google has announced in January new privacy policy to share user accounts on all its sites (like Gmail and Youtube). A change that is controversial and will be subject, in France, a meeting with the CNIL next week to clarify the new rules.

The goal for Google is taking another step ahead to face competing search engines, starting with Bing Microsoft announced last week its largest update since its launch three years ago. Among the new Bing strengthens its integration within the social network Facebook, which Microsoft is a shareholder. According to the firm Comscore, Google has widened its lead over its competitors, concentrating 66.4% of online searches in the U.S. in April, against 65.7% a year earlier. Well ahead of the 15.3% posted by Bing and 13.7% for Yahoo!.

Autolib accelerates but is far from its cruising speed

Tag: economics, features, publications, technology, traveladmin @ 4:44 am

 

Five months after the launch of Autolib ', the system self-service vehicles do not meet again a great success, far from it. Although the number of subscribers grew, but it remains inadequate. It rises this month to 15,000 people, 00 of which only 5 signed an annual subscription, others have chosen packages in the week or day. The cars were used 118,000 times since December.

The businessman Vincent Bollore, whose group provides vehicles and charging stations, expects 30,000 annual subscribers at the end of the year. But to be profitable, Autolib 'must have 80,000 users on the car twice a week for a period of just under an hour. The group has indeed invested 100 million euros starting in the device, plus 100 million annual operating costs (including 900 people have been recruited to the call center and stations).

Financial side, the businessman Breton is optimistic. At the launch of this system of electric cars, self-service in the Paris region, beginning in December 2011, he estimated it would take seven years to break even. "It is possible that this is earlier," he said Wednesday. The infrastructure can be rapidly deployed in 46 communities of Ile-de-France, including Paris, while the number of stations has doubled since the start, reaching 500 stations in May. It must still be multiplied by two (1050), by October. The number of electric cars is made available to him from 250 to 1740 and is expected to climb to 3,000 by the end of the year.

In late April, the Bluecar Bolloré also ranks the leading electric car registrations in France (982 copies), before Nissan and Mia, a market it is true stammering (1595 cars). Bolloré would however expect a year of operation to take a real first assessment, but also business technology fast payday loan no faxing. Electric batteries, particularly temperature sensitive, "have passed the severe cold, but not yet the hot summer," he says.

For now, this service attracted a rather young audience: half of subscribers between 18 and 35. Unsurprisingly, 70% of users have no car. More difficult to explain: 75% are men.

Little vandalism

Degradation related vehicles, hiccups were encountered the first time, "but we managed to eliminate the defects of youth," he assured Vincent Bolloré. The bumpers have been replaced by such material more resistant. The precedents décrochaient easily as motorists unaccustomed to automatic transmissions, may tend to confuse the brake and accelerator. Mirrors, knobs of power windows and door loading were also changed. Moreover, the cars have yet to paint, which avoids the risk of scratches and lighten the car by 5 kilos (an economy that enhances autonomy). In total, Autolib 'account from 20 to 25 claims per day.

So far, however, "very little" acts of vandalism have been deplored, welcomes Vincent Bolloré, contrary to what was observed for self-service bikes Velib '. The most spectacular incident, three cars were burned in Créteil in the Val de Marne.

To attract new subscribers, Autolib launches a monthly fee of 30 euros plus 6 euros per half hour of use. The annual fee amounts to 144 euros plus 5 euros thirty minutes of driving.

Global consumption of wine leaves after 4 years of follow

Tag: people, publications, resources, travel, worldadmin @ 10:08 pm

 

Global consumption of wine is finding colors in 2011. It increases from 0.7% to 241.9 million hectoliters (hl). She stopped and started a downward cycle since 2007. "It seems that the worst is behind us. This does not mean that an immediate return to pre-crisis growth is confirmed, relativizes Federico Castellucci, Director General of the International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV). In addition to unfavorable economic factors, changes in consumption patterns continue to see recovery in the major producing countries, such as the EU. "Indeed, European consumers now favor quality over quantity. This, however, are the Americans and Chinese who support sales.

47.4 liters per capita in France

In detail, the world's largest market, that is to say the EU wine consumption fell by nearly one million hectoliters last year, mainly due to degradation economic conditions in countries of this area and a change in customer behavior. Italian consumption shows a sharp decline of around 1.6 million hl (- 6.3%), as Spain and Britain, but to a lesser extent. Germany, meanwhile, has stagnated.

Only exception in this bleak picture: French consumption increases significantly (3.5%), almost 30 million hl. This increase is explained by massive purchases of wine last year on French territory by foreign tourists easy payday loans. But the OIV can not be quantified precisely. Single index, consumption rises officially in France to 47.4 liters per capita. Net purchases of tourism, it would be some 40 liters per person, a level close to that of Italy to 37.4 liters.

French cognac and champagne appreciated

For their part, the United States, second world market volume, estimated to have grown 0.9 hl (nearly triple the 2009 and 2010) and 28.5 Mhl approach. Americans like French cognac and champagne. Example: for the Charente house Courvoisier, "remains our largest market outside the U.S. where we sell 48.5 million bottles of brandy a year, or nearly 30% of our annual exports," said its president, Patrick Pinet.

China also exports have increased with the increasing popularity of a population easier for wine products. "Since 2001, exports of French wine and spirits increased by 3700%, three quarters of which relate to the claret and brandy," says Nicolas Ozanam, Delegate General for CFTS (Federations of exports of wines and spirits).

Result, world trade in wine in 2011 reached over $ 103.5 million hl, up 7.9%.

Presidential: spending cuts in sham

Tag: business, finance, news, publications, resourcesadmin @ 12:20 pm

 

So far, Francois Hollande was very talkative on controlling public spending. To prove his seriousness in budgetary matters, the PS argued the EUR 49 billion of tax increases planned – both graded increases to fund new measures and to reduce the public deficit to 3% in 2013. Change in tone Thursday on France 2. The Socialist candidate was more explicit result: the return to balance accounts in 2017 will also "by 50 billion savings on public spending," he said, highlighting a point that appears from the origin, but discreetly, in its program.

In fact, in a country where public expenditure accounts for 56.6% of GDP, while fiscal consolidation achieved through an action on the charges. Except as we stay in France. Unlike the choices made in the UK and measures imposed in Portugal or Greece, or Francois Hollande nor Nicolas Sarkozy proposed to actually reduce government spending, that is to say, the return of 100 euros a year to 95 next year. The two main candidates simply promise to slow the rise.

From 1978 to 2008, public spending grew on average by 2.6% per year, plus inflation. "We will limit their increases to 1% per year," said Francois Hollande. Right, this government promised in Brussels an increase of 0.4% per year until 2016. Then where are the savings put forward by both sides? This is actually a smaller increase in expenses, compared to their natural tendency (which is explained by the increase in salaries of civil servants, the increase in health spending, the rising number of retirees, etc.. ). This is supposed to be parallel to that of GDP. Example project with Holland. Without special measures, the approximately 1 trillion of government spending should increase as the national wealth (1.7% per year initially, 2.25% at the end, according to forecasts of the candidate). An average increase of about 2% per year during the future five-year-around 20 billion euros each year. The PS wants to limit their growth to 1% per year. The economy compared to the natural drift is 10 billion per year and $ 50 billion in the five year term. The weight of public expenditure in GDP would decline to 53.9% while in 2017 the government is 52.8% in 2016. In both cases, the action will inevitably unpopular.

Divisive options

Social benefits-health costs, pensions, family allowances or unemployment … – indeed absorb 45% of public expenditure. Just to bring growth in public spending to 0.7% in 2011, the current government had to reform pensions, act on Medicare and not to replace staff on two retiring.

Thursday, Francois Hollande suggested avenues for savings: lower prices and consumption of drugs, focus on health prevention, cuts in aid to enterprises, decentralization. Displaying its objective of stabilizing the size of the public, he admitted that there would be job cuts in all departments except Education, Justice and Home Affairs. "The salary policy will be serious," said Michel Sapin, program officer of the applicant, being careful not to promise any pay rise. And state transfers to local (one hundred billion a year) "will not progress." Not to mention that if economic growth is not at the rendezvous, the scheme collapses. Michel Sapin no plans yet not to intensify efforts in this case: "A real spending cuts could destabilize the economy," he retorts.

Advocating a greater effort, Nicolas Sarkozy announced the continuation of "one in two." The UMP also wants to cut $ 2 billion per year transfers to communities. Magnitude of the cuts, selected sectors: these options are politically divisive. But in a camp like in the other, the information disclosed so far are not enough.

Eurozone: pressure on Spain

Tag: Uncategorized, events, finance, international, opinionsadmin @ 11:28 am

 

After Greece, out of bankruptcy risk through the release of a second bailout of 130 billion euros, it was Spain who finds himself in the crosshairs of the Eurogroup, meeting on Monday evening in Brussels. The Spanish finance minister will have to explain on the skids deficits Spanish before his peers, the European Commission and the ECB President.

The prime minister, Mariano Rajoy, had a surprise, on March 2, alongside the European Council, stating that Spain would build his 2012 budget with a deficit target of 5.8% of GDP, while that agreed with the EU was 4.4%, to reach 3% of GDP deficit in 2013.

The market reaction was not long in coming. Following this, the cost of borrowing from Spain to 10 years jumped to nearly 5% more than for the first time in months, that of Italy. Guardian of the future "fiscal pact", the European Commission ordered a "serious blunder", brandished the threat of financial sanctions and sent experts to Madrid to assess the fiscal situation. Last year, the Spanish public deficit soared more than expected to reach 8.51% of GDP in late 2011.

Threat of sanctions

"There is no questioning of objectives," says the Spanish Minister of Economy, Luis De Guindos, in an interview Sunday on ABC newspaper. "Spain is a loyal member of the EU who feels bound by the European fiscal rules," he says.

Engaged in a very severe austerity measures, faces a general strike in late March because of its reform of the labor market, Spain is weighed down by losses of its regions, which have slipped to 2.9% of GDP against only 1.3% under-the Madrid region meets its objectives, which weighs heavily on central government accounts.

Barely out of the Greek crisis, "the euro area can not afford a new speculative attack," recalls one in Brussels. The Commission will ask the government to submit a plan "credible" to bring deficits to 3% in 2013, implying a say in Brussels on the draft budget 2012 Spanish.

Monday night, finance ministers from the euro area will give the green light to launch the second program of aid to Greece. Of 130 billion euros, the IMF should be involved up to 18 billion, said Christine Lagarde.

Even the Germans say they are reassured about the situation in Greece. "I am confident that the measures taken hard by the Greek government will put the country on the road to recovery," said German Finance Minister, Wolfgang Schäuble, unwilling to speculate on a third plan to help … To parry , the European Central Bank will continue its buybacks of bonds on the secondary market, ensures Coeuré Benedict, a member of the Executive Board of the ECB to Japanese newspaper Nikkei.

Insurers are diversifying into private banking

Tag: business, economics, money, special, worldadmin @ 4:12 pm

 

Insurers want to conquer the savings of the middle classes. The French have a significant financial wealth but less than one million euros often feel ill-advised by large banks, where private banking is reserved for the wealthy. It is into this breach that insurers dream of rush.

A year ago, France launched its program Allianz Allianz First to seduce investors to assets exceeding EUR 250,000. If they join Allianz Fisrt, they become preferred customers, recognized in all the networks of the insurer. They enjoy a range of high quality investments, with conditions more favorable pricing, a dedicated website on heritage issues, or telephone support 7 days 7 to answer all their questions and legal other tax anxieties. They are entitled to invitations to shows and conferences, a sign of recognition. And most importantly, advice on measures. "Heritage poles were created throughout France for general agents. They offer the support of consultants responsible for meeting with clients to analyze their needs and recommend solutions to their problems, "explains Jacques Caba, director of Allianz Private Bank.

Within months, 4,700 clients have already joined the program. This year, Allianz expands this device entrepreneurs, creating the First Circle. And is already the market of private banking. "Insurers are traditionally not present in this segment, rather allotted to banks guaranteed payday loans. They have only 5% of this market, and a gap to fill, "added Jacques Caba.

Axa has already taken a step ahead

MMA and MAAF are available, they, of commercials to tout their excellent advisors or skills in wealth management. Axa has already taken a step ahead. In 2008, just before the crisis, the insurer Axa has launched Exclusiv, a program focusing on the heritage council, to retain the investors with 100,000 to 500,000 euros of financial wealth. "Either in France 2.6 million households and 50% of the savings market value," said Nicolas Deschamps, director of market savings tributary of Axa. The group offers advice (with annual meeting with heritage specialists of the insurer) and insiders', as an outstanding communication in times of crisis)

.

"Insurers have realized they would have difficulty competing with banks in the savings market consumer. These files have a formidable business efficiency. However, the savings market more upscale, the sinews of war is the board. And insurance companies that have large sales forces have strengths to win, "added Olivier Potellet, CEO of Legal & General. The initial results are inconclusive. Axa, the average purchase amount on investments increased by 50% for clients Axa Exclusiv.

Tax: the false solution of withholding

Tag: business, economy, money, opinions, peopleadmin @ 9:16 pm

 

In almost all developed countries except France, Switzerland and Singapore, the income tax (IR) is taken directly from the paychecks of household, month after month. This system called "withholding tax" has two advantages: it makes life easier for taxpayers and allows the State to recover almost certainly the tax due, and it regularly.

France should she finally opt for this system, after several failed attempts? Francois Hollande has thought before abandoning the project too. The latest study on the subject of compulsory Council (OAC), an organization linked to the ECA, rather gives reason to critics of the withholding tax. "Some of the arguments advanced in favor of historically withholding their lost weight," said Wednesday, during the presentation of the study, Didier Migaud, the first president of the Court of Auditors.

Indeed, 73% of monthly paid by French taxpayers are now: they pay their IR month after month. Payment is made by monthly installments or third provisional, in 90% of cases it is done electronically (direct debit transfers). The tax return has also been improved, many are now pre-filled boxes. In short, the taxpayer, the French system is relatively simple to use. And the withholding tax is not a panacea: the taxpayer must file a tax return and having to adjust to the tax the following year.

Another consequence of modernization introduced in France, the tax already covers very well the IR, to 99%.

The withholding tax would actually an advantage for the French: they would pay a tax based on income of the year. Currently, households that see their revenues decline, due to retirement, unemployment, divorce, have to pay high taxes compared to their resources in the year, this tax is computed on income, best, of previous year. 30% of households fall into this category each year.

But the CPO believes that this problem can be solved without going through the withholding tax. It is already possible in France to modulate its monthly installments or obtain payment periods, in case of declining income. Would require the IRS to better communicate on these facilities, says the CPO.

Costs for the company

The tax could also opt for the taxation of income during the year: the deposits paid in taxes would be calculated on the estimated income for the year. There would regularize the following year, when revenues definitively known. This system would have an advantage over the withholding tax: the company would not be involved in tax collection.

Indeed, if the direct debit from paychecks, the employer is the tax collector. It can even be the one to calculate the total revenues. In the latter case, he knows if his employee receives other income from savings or property, and he knows the wages of their spouse. Besides the privacy issue, this can affect wage policy – why increase someone whose spouse is very easy? This design maximum role of enterprise is rare and only affects Canada. It remains true that the withholding tax involves costs for the company, from four to two hundred euros a year in different countries.

Anyway, switching to the taxation of income of the year it takes place via the IRS or the withholding tax levied by the company, is a problem, that of the transition year. Could not ask taxpayers to pay that year double tax on the earnings of the year and those of the previous year.

The solution most often proposed is to cancel the tax assessed on the income of the previous year. An acceptable solution since in practice the tax authorities would not suffer any break in the perception of the IR. But at a cost: it would continue to grant tax benefits (employment at home, donations?) On revenues of the previous year. The bill would be 5 to 10 billion euros calculated the CPO. Not very appropriate at this time of fiscal crisis.

With regard to the withholding tax, "the balance tips towards more disadvantages than advantages to," said Didier Migaud.

In its latest study of twenty years, Boeing estimates in turn that the needs of Russian companies will revolve around 1000 units including 700 medium-haul aircraft like A 320 and B 737, worth $ 110 billion by 2030.

16 million passengers and 400,000 flight hours

Reduce taxes, it is still possible

Tag: business, features, opinions, resources, technologyadmin @ 3:20 am

The tax. It scares some, who left France for tax heavens warmer (Switzerland in the lead). It works the other. The French tax system is so dense that the understanding, and around, held for hours and other estate planning tax, paid to find clever editing which will reduce the tax bill their customers.

The tax is also debate. Political issue, it will be based on the outcome of presidential elections next year. But whatever the future tenant of the Elysee, the necessary fiscal consolidation will make more bitter potion tax in France and elsewhere. This fall, several large employers, Maurice Levy (Publicis) to head, seized of the matter, declaring themselves willing to pay more, in the wake of U.S. financial guru Warren Buffet.Went to war for the tax to China with Bill Gates, the investors have called "the sage of Omaha" and admits that pay less tax proportionately than his secretary did not meet with success expected in the Middle Kingdom.

Tax loopholes less generous

In some banks, asset management, however, we feel that the climate is changing. Faced with the country's debt, attitudes are changing. "Taxes will go up, most of our customers are aware of, said Philippe Vayssettes, the president of the bank Neuflize OBC. The crisis has raised awareness to wealthy clients need to solve the problem of public finances, and his reactions to the tax increases are less epidermal few years ago.Many say they would pay more taxes, but only if the load is evenly distributed and that addresses the spending. "

France, in recent years sought to rebalance the tax burden on labor and the heritage. And tax loopholes were made less generous. Yet the French are addicted to the means to reduce their taxes. "Everyone is struggling to pay less tax, but push the system too far is destructive of social cohesion," says Mathilde Lemoine, director of economic research and market strategy of HSBC France. Investors rushed last year on investment in rental real estate law Scellier, which allowed them (for investments made in 2010) to obtain a tax reduction equal to 25% of their implementation, a limit of 300,000 euros.This year, the percentage of tax reduction increased to 22% for purchases in buildings BBC (low power) and uncertainty hovered for months about the future of the device. Result, the French have been slow to invest. The ax has fallen at the presentation of the Finance Act 2012: tax reduction Scellier expected to increase to 18% next year. Individuals tempted by a real estate transaction in the nine have a vested interest to act quickly if they want the rate of 22%, although an amendment could, if adopted, to take into account the sales agreement and not just the final act signed before the end of the year.Better yet avoid precipitation because tax savings does not always mean good business.

Before embarking on an operation of tax exemption must make an effort not to be blinded by the tax sirens and see the economic benefit of investment. And its output. With these precautions taken, why not kill two birds with one stone? Build wealth, comfort and reduce the income tax it will pay next year. For this, we need to invest before the end of the year. The tax paid in 2012 will focus on the income received this year. So it also charges, expenses and investments made in 2011 that will reduce the tax liability next year.

Individuals familiar with the outline of the 2012 budget, a few caveats about. We must also wait for the vote of the National Assembly and Senate to get the specific details of the measurements.On some points, arrangements are already being considered. The slowdown in growth means fewer tax revenues, will require to find recipes. The tax may be more severe in the coming years and levers to reduce fewer. One more reason to enjoy the levers that exist today.

Avoid the pitfalls of tax exemption

But the string of investments and existing mechanisms, it is often difficult to find your way. The folder you now offers Le Figaro Magazine, with the teams of the Particular (group Figaro), is designed to help you reduce the tax burden without falling into the pitfalls of tax exemption.So we sifted through real estate investments, financial products, including FIP, the FCIC and Sofica and investment overseas and work to achieve in its housing, which can afford to pay less tax next year, whether the income tax or, in some cases (direct investment in SMEs, gifts, etc..), the ISF. And to reduce taxation intelligently, we give you other ways to reduce the tax burden, such as investing in the forest or going into debt. Have a ball. –

Limit spending to curb the increase in taxes

We too often forget: you pay taxes to finance public spending. One way to limit the tax increase is to reduce them. It will do so, and ask what the costs really useful, "said Mathilde Lemoine.In a report last July, the Economic Analysis Council considers necessary and tax reform advocates an overhaul of the system of tax loopholes. To restore confidence in the fairness of our tax system, he advises to "better link the tax to ability to pay."But he warned: "To encourage investment guess you do not make the mistake in the name of the simplification of our tax system, a confiscatory taxation of capital income." Fiscal policy is a delicate, because ultimately, too many taxes kill taxes.
