He further informed that the tea is currently being exported to these places as a test. “We are planning to commercially export within a month,” he said. Nepali organic tea is currently exported to Germany, France, Czech Republic, Japan and some other countries.</p> <p> Under the testing phase, four tea industries are exporting around seven quintals of tea monthly. Kanchanjangha Tea Estate, Himalayan Shangri-la Tea Producers, Gorkha Tea Estate and Guranse Tea Estate are exporting organic tea commercially. Mainali also shared that business representatives of respective countries are planning to visit Nepal for observation of Nepali tea industry. According to Mainali, all tea industries established for organic tea production still do not possess organic certificate. Countries like the USA, Japan and Australia among others have been providing certification. The association said that 16 industries are currently in the line of producing organic tea while only four industries have received organic certification. According to Mainali, in order to acquire organic certification, one industry must add about Rs 1.5 to 2 million investment. This year, Himalayan Shangri-la Tea Producers acquired ‘organic certification’, said Mainali, who is also the Director of the company. Previously, Kanchanjangha Tea Estate, Gorkha Tea State and Guranse Tea Estate had acquired organic certification.</p> <p> ‘A’ grade tea produced in Nepal is exported to third countries. The Association has informed that 300,000 kg of organic certified tea is produced annually in Nepal. “The demand for such tea in abroad is still high,” Mainali said. He further added, “Nepali companies are not being able to produce tea to meet the demand.” Tea industrialists say highly advanced technologies and skills are required for organic tea production in Nepal. </p> <div> </div>', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2013-04-20', 'modified' => '2013-06-03', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => 'Himalayan Orthodox Tea Producer’s Association of Nepal is planning to export organic tea to three new countries- China, USA, and Russia - within a month. “Export to these countries is the result of high demand of Nepali Tea there,” said Kamal Raj Mainali, Treasurer at the Association.', 'sortorder' => '851', 'image' => null, 'article_date' => '0000-00-00 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => false, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '0' ) ), (int) 1 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '971', 'article_category_id' => '34', 'title' => '21 Banks Subscribe To Thomson Reuters', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => null, 'content' => '<p> </p> <p> <img alt="Thomsom Reuters, New Business Age" height="181" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/biz_news_banking_thomson_reuters.jpg" width="338" /></p> <p> Thomson Reuters (TR), the world’s leading source of intelligent information for businesses and professionals, announced that 21 leading Nepali banks have signed up to Thomson Reuters Dealing, the company’s industry standard trading platform for foreign exchange (FX).

It is an initiative taken for the first time in Nepal by Center for Economic and Financial Studies (CEFS), says coordinator of the initiative Olin Thakur. New Business Age Pvt Ltd will contribute to the event as an official media partner. “Financial Literacy Month Celebration” is a part of Financial Literacy Initiative, Thakur says, adding that the celebration includes various workshops, quiz/essay competitions, round table discussions, award distributions and various other financial awareness activities in various places across the nation.</p> <p> “Financial literacy is the ability to understand how money works in the world: how someone manages to earn or make it, how that person manages it, how he/she invests it (turn it into more) and how that person donates it to help others,” according to organiser.Financial literacy encompasses both knowing about money matters and being equipped to utilize that knowledge by applying it across a range of contexts. What a person needs to know to be financially literate will vary depending upon their circumstances and needs. </p> <p> Generally, however, it will involve an understanding of a person’s own values and priorities, budgeting, savings and how to manage money, credit, the importance of insurance and protecting against risk, investment basics and retirement planning along with others.</p> <p> <strong>Why is it Important in context of Nepal?</strong></p> <p> Good financial literacy skills help individuals and families make the most of opportunities, meet their goals and secure their financial wellbeing, as well as contribute to the economic health of society, Thakur claims. “Improved financial literacy can increase economic participation and social inclusion, drive competition and market efficiency in the financial services sector, and potentially reduce regulatory intervention.”</p> <p> Individuals and households must have the tools to cope with the increasingly complex world of financial instruments. Moreover, financial education ensures poverty reduction and economic growth facility. So, financial literacy is becoming more necessary. Nevertheless, it refers to the set of skills and knowledge that allows an individual to make informed and effective decisions with all of their financial resources. Raising interest in personal finance is now a focus program in most countries around the globe, according to organiser.</p> <p> Organiser says that Financial Literacy Initiative is to help Nepali people in understanding and addressing financial matters, and thereby contribute financial wellbeing; to promote and enhance financial capability among each; to enhance the present knowledge base; to manage financial resources effectively; to empower individuals to make informed choices, avoid pitfalls, know where to go for help; and take other actions to improve their present and long-term financial well-being.</p> <p> “We believe that Financial literacy Initiative will be very crucial in helping the Nepali citizens of various age groups of Nepal to understand and adjust to the situation in which they are now to help them acknowledge themselves in a wiser way and find the loopholes and the gaps in their way of doing micro-macro financial transactions in their day to day lives,” Thakur further added.</p> <p> <strong>Bridging Gaps </strong></p> <p> It aims at facilitating them to bridge the gaps in their financial knowledge and understanding as well as enable them to manage their day to day transactions and future planning in a cost-time efficient ways be it the transaction of a rupee or a million.

However, the annual tax collection has increased by eight folds compared to the data of past 15 years. During the fiscal year 1997/98, Rs 32.94 billion revenue was collected while in the fiscal year 2011/12 the collection increased to Rs 244 billion. The government has targeted to collect Rs 289 billion in the current fiscal year. Director General of Inland Revenue Department (IRD), Tanka Mani Sharma is hopeful on meeting the target. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> The market is flooded with the imported consumer goods because of the increasing demands. Similarly, the consumerism has also increased much. Therefore, government is collecting huge amount of import taxes. The government campaigns on tax awareness along with ongoing institutional improvements have contributed for meeting the revenue targets, said Sharma. There were 0.3 million tax payers registered in 2006/2007 and in the running fiscal year, the number has increased to a total of 0.8 million.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> The IRD has also projected addition of 0.1 million tax payers in the current fiscal year. Sharma further adds, “The successful efforts to increase the tax bracket in the previous years have resulted in increasing revenue collection. If the informal sector can be brought under the tax bracket, the revenue collection can be increased by 25 per cent.” </p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> “The improvement in tax collection is a positive sign but the huge amount amassed as import taxes is a matter of stress”, say some economists. This means that more foreign items are entering into the Nepali market. This puts a negative impact on the foreign currency deposit of Nepal. Economists Keshav Acharya said, “The remittance is the main factor for increasing demand in the market, and the remittance is not invested for productive use.”</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> In the last fiscal year, a huge amount was spent on importing vehicles and gadgets such as mobile phones and laptops. “The increase in import tax cannot be considered good in any economy. It may appear as a good source of revenue at present for the government but in a long run, the economy will have to face negative consequences,” Shree Ram Poudel, an Economist said. He further added, “Nepal is slowly catching the Dutch disease.”</p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div>', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2013-03-24', 'modified' => '0000-00-00', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => 'The persistent slow economic growth of Nepal has shown no signs of improvements.

The availability of real-time pricing information and automated trading processes will open up new opportunities for Nepal’s banks and enable them to tap into the global FX markets - the largest financial market in the world.”</p> <p> Used by more than 18,000 trading professionals globally in more than 5,000 organisations across 120 countries, Thomson Reuters Dealing is the industry standard for FX trading professionals for price discovery, trade execution and seamless integration with back office processes. </p> <p> Thomson Reuters has had a presence in Nepal for more than a decade working closely with the financial industry and the banking community and is the leading international financial provider to operate in the country in association with Nepal’s ICTC Group.</p> <div> </div>', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2013-04-20', 'modified' => '2013-06-03', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => 'Thomson Reuters (TR), the world’s leading source of intelligent information for businesses and professionals, announced that 21 leading Nepali banks have signed up to Thomson Reuters Dealing, the company’s industry standard trading platform for foreign exchange (FX).', 'sortorder' => '850', 'image' => null, 'article_date' => '0000-00-00 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => false, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '0' ) ), (int) 2 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '945', 'article_category_id' => '34', 'title' => 'Financial Literacy Initiative To Kick-off In Mid-April', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => null, 'content' => '<p> </p> <p> <img alt="Financial Literacy Initiative, April 2013" height="172" src="http://www.newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/biz_news_financial_literacy_initiative.jpg" width="380" /></p> <p> Month-long Financial Literacy Initiative (FLI) will start in mid-April. It is an initiative taken for the first time in Nepal by Center for Economic and Financial Studies (CEFS), says coordinator of the initiative Olin Thakur. New Business Age Pvt Ltd will contribute to the event as an official media partner. “Financial Literacy Month Celebration” is a part of Financial Literacy Initiative, Thakur says, adding that the celebration includes various workshops, quiz/essay competitions, round table discussions, award distributions and various other financial awareness activities in various places across the nation.</p> <p> “Financial literacy is the ability to understand how money works in the world: how someone manages to earn or make it, how that person manages it, how he/she invests it (turn it into more) and how that person donates it to help others,” according to organiser.Financial literacy encompasses both knowing about money matters and being equipped to utilize that knowledge by applying it across a range of contexts. What a person needs to know to be financially literate will vary depending upon their circumstances and needs. </p> <p> Generally, however, it will involve an understanding of a person’s own values and priorities, budgeting, savings and how to manage money, credit, the importance of insurance and protecting against risk, investment basics and retirement planning along with others.</p> <p> <strong>Why is it Important in context of Nepal?</strong></p> <p> Good financial literacy skills help individuals and families make the most of opportunities, meet their goals and secure their financial wellbeing, as well as contribute to the economic health of society, Thakur claims. “Improved financial literacy can increase economic participation and social inclusion, drive competition and market efficiency in the financial services sector, and potentially reduce regulatory intervention.”</p> <p> Individuals and households must have the tools to cope with the increasingly complex world of financial instruments. Moreover, financial education ensures poverty reduction and economic growth facility. So, financial literacy is becoming more necessary. Nevertheless, it refers to the set of skills and knowledge that allows an individual to make informed and effective decisions with all of their financial resources. Raising interest in personal finance is now a focus program in most countries around the globe, according to organiser.</p> <p> Organiser says that Financial Literacy Initiative is to help Nepali people in understanding and addressing financial matters, and thereby contribute financial wellbeing; to promote and enhance financial capability among each; to enhance the present knowledge base; to manage financial resources effectively; to empower individuals to make informed choices, avoid pitfalls, know where to go for help; and take other actions to improve their present and long-term financial well-being.</p> <p> “We believe that Financial literacy Initiative will be very crucial in helping the Nepali citizens of various age groups of Nepal to understand and adjust to the situation in which they are now to help them acknowledge themselves in a wiser way and find the loopholes and the gaps in their way of doing micro-macro financial transactions in their day to day lives,” Thakur further added.</p> <p> <strong>Bridging Gaps </strong></p> <p> It aims at facilitating them to bridge the gaps in their financial knowledge and understanding as well as enable them to manage their day to day transactions and future planning in a cost-time efficient ways be it the transaction of a rupee or a million.

However, the annual tax collection has increased by eight folds compared to the data of past 15 years. During the fiscal year 1997/98, Rs 32.94 billion revenue was collected while in the fiscal year 2011/12 the collection increased to Rs 244 billion. The government has targeted to collect Rs 289 billion in the current fiscal year. Director General of Inland Revenue Department (IRD), Tanka Mani Sharma is hopeful on meeting the target. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> The market is flooded with the imported consumer goods because of the increasing demands. Similarly, the consumerism has also increased much. Therefore, government is collecting huge amount of import taxes. The government campaigns on tax awareness along with ongoing institutional improvements have contributed for meeting the revenue targets, said Sharma. There were 0.3 million tax payers registered in 2006/2007 and in the running fiscal year, the number has increased to a total of 0.8 million.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> The IRD has also projected addition of 0.1 million tax payers in the current fiscal year. Sharma further adds, “The successful efforts to increase the tax bracket in the previous years have resulted in increasing revenue collection. If the informal sector can be brought under the tax bracket, the revenue collection can be increased by 25 per cent.” </p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> “The improvement in tax collection is a positive sign but the huge amount amassed as import taxes is a matter of stress”, say some economists. This means that more foreign items are entering into the Nepali market. This puts a negative impact on the foreign currency deposit of Nepal. Economists Keshav Acharya said, “The remittance is the main factor for increasing demand in the market, and the remittance is not invested for productive use.”</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> In the last fiscal year, a huge amount was spent on importing vehicles and gadgets such as mobile phones and laptops. “The increase in import tax cannot be considered good in any economy.

What a person needs to know to be financially literate will vary depending upon their circumstances and needs. </p> <p> Generally, however, it will involve an understanding of a person’s own values and priorities, budgeting, savings and how to manage money, credit, the importance of insurance and protecting against risk, investment basics and retirement planning along with others.</p> <p> <strong>Why is it Important in context of Nepal?</strong></p> <p> Good financial literacy skills help individuals and families make the most of opportunities, meet their goals and secure their financial wellbeing, as well as contribute to the economic health of society, Thakur claims. “Improved financial literacy can increase economic participation and social inclusion, drive competition and market efficiency in the financial services sector, and potentially reduce regulatory intervention.”</p> <p> Individuals and households must have the tools to cope with the increasingly complex world of financial instruments. Moreover, financial education ensures poverty reduction and economic growth facility. So, financial literacy is becoming more necessary. Nevertheless, it refers to the set of skills and knowledge that allows an individual to make informed and effective decisions with all of their financial resources. Raising interest in personal finance is now a focus program in most countries around the globe, according to organiser.</p> <p> Organiser says that Financial Literacy Initiative is to help Nepali people in understanding and addressing financial matters, and thereby contribute financial wellbeing; to promote and enhance financial capability among each; to enhance the present knowledge base; to manage financial resources effectively; to empower individuals to make informed choices, avoid pitfalls, know where to go for help; and take other actions to improve their present and long-term financial well-being.</p> <p> “We believe that Financial literacy Initiative will be very crucial in helping the Nepali citizens of various age groups of Nepal to understand and adjust to the situation in which they are now to help them acknowledge themselves in a wiser way and find the loopholes and the gaps in their way of doing micro-macro financial transactions in their day to day lives,” Thakur further added.</p> <p> <strong>Bridging Gaps </strong></p> <p> It aims at facilitating them to bridge the gaps in their financial knowledge and understanding as well as enable them to manage their day to day transactions and future planning in a cost-time efficient ways be it the transaction of a rupee or a million.

However, the annual tax collection has increased by eight folds compared to the data of past 15 years. During the fiscal year 1997/98, Rs 32.94 billion revenue was collected while in the fiscal year 2011/12 the collection increased to Rs 244 billion. The government has targeted to collect Rs 289 billion in the current fiscal year. Director General of Inland Revenue Department (IRD), Tanka Mani Sharma is hopeful on meeting the target. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> The market is flooded with the imported consumer goods because of the increasing demands. Similarly, the consumerism has also increased much. Therefore, government is collecting huge amount of import taxes. The government campaigns on tax awareness along with ongoing institutional improvements have contributed for meeting the revenue targets, said Sharma. There were 0.3 million tax payers registered in 2006/2007 and in the running fiscal year, the number has increased to a total of 0.8 million.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> The IRD has also projected addition of 0.1 million tax payers in the current fiscal year. Sharma further adds, “The successful efforts to increase the tax bracket in the previous years have resulted in increasing revenue collection. If the informal sector can be brought under the tax bracket, the revenue collection can be increased by 25 per cent.” </p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> “The improvement in tax collection is a positive sign but the huge amount amassed as import taxes is a matter of stress”, say some economists. This means that more foreign items are entering into the Nepali market. This puts a negative impact on the foreign currency deposit of Nepal. Economists Keshav Acharya said, “The remittance is the main factor for increasing demand in the market, and the remittance is not invested for productive use.”</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> In the last fiscal year, a huge amount was spent on importing vehicles and gadgets such as mobile phones and laptops. “The increase in import tax cannot be considered good in any economy. It may appear as a good source of revenue at present for the government but in a long run, the economy will have to face negative consequences,” Shree Ram Poudel, an Economist said. He further added, “Nepal is slowly catching the Dutch disease.”</p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div>', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2013-03-24', 'modified' => '0000-00-00', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => 'The persistent slow economic growth of Nepal has shown no signs of improvements.

Nepali organic tea is currently exported to Germany, France, Czech Republic, Japan and some other countries.</p> <p> Under the testing phase, four tea industries are exporting around seven quintals of tea monthly.

According to Mainali, all tea industries established for organic tea production still do not possess organic certificate. Countries like the USA, Japan and Australia among others have been providing certification. The association said that 16 industries are currently in the line of producing organic tea while only four industries have received organic certification. According to Mainali, in order to acquire organic certification, one industry must add about Rs 1.5 to 2 million investment.

What a person needs to know to be financially literate will vary depending upon their circumstances and needs. </p> <p> Generally, however, it will involve an understanding of a person’s own values and priorities, budgeting, savings and how to manage money, credit, the importance of insurance and protecting against risk, investment basics and retirement planning along with others.</p> <p> <strong>Why is it Important in context of Nepal?</strong></p> <p> Good financial literacy skills help individuals and families make the most of opportunities, meet their goals and secure their financial wellbeing, as well as contribute to the economic health of society, Thakur claims. “Improved financial literacy can increase economic participation and social inclusion, drive competition and market efficiency in the financial services sector, and potentially reduce regulatory intervention.”</p> <p> Individuals and households must have the tools to cope with the increasingly complex world of financial instruments. Moreover, financial education ensures poverty reduction and economic growth facility. So, financial literacy is becoming more necessary. Nevertheless, it refers to the set of skills and knowledge that allows an individual to make informed and effective decisions with all of their financial resources. Raising interest in personal finance is now a focus program in most countries around the globe, according to organiser.</p> <p> Organiser says that Financial Literacy Initiative is to help Nepali people in understanding and addressing financial matters, and thereby contribute financial wellbeing; to promote and enhance financial capability among each; to enhance the present knowledge base; to manage financial resources effectively; to empower individuals to make informed choices, avoid pitfalls, know where to go for help; and take other actions to improve their present and long-term financial well-being.</p> <p> “We believe that Financial literacy Initiative will be very crucial in helping the Nepali citizens of various age groups of Nepal to understand and adjust to the situation in which they are now to help them acknowledge themselves in a wiser way and find the loopholes and the gaps in their way of doing micro-macro financial transactions in their day to day lives,” Thakur further added.</p> <p> <strong>Bridging Gaps </strong></p> <p> It aims at facilitating them to bridge the gaps in their financial knowledge and understanding as well as enable them to manage their day to day transactions and future planning in a cost-time efficient ways be it the transaction of a rupee or a million.

However, the annual tax collection has increased by eight folds compared to the data of past 15 years. During the fiscal year 1997/98, Rs 32.94 billion revenue was collected while in the fiscal year 2011/12 the collection increased to Rs 244 billion. The government has targeted to collect Rs 289 billion in the current fiscal year. Director General of Inland Revenue Department (IRD), Tanka Mani Sharma is hopeful on meeting the target. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> The market is flooded with the imported consumer goods because of the increasing demands. Similarly, the consumerism has also increased much. Therefore, government is collecting huge amount of import taxes. The government campaigns on tax awareness along with ongoing institutional improvements have contributed for meeting the revenue targets, said Sharma. There were 0.3 million tax payers registered in 2006/2007 and in the running fiscal year, the number has increased to a total of 0.8 million.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> The IRD has also projected addition of 0.1 million tax payers in the current fiscal year. Sharma further adds, “The successful efforts to increase the tax bracket in the previous years have resulted in increasing revenue collection. If the informal sector can be brought under the tax bracket, the revenue collection can be increased by 25 per cent.” </p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> “The improvement in tax collection is a positive sign but the huge amount amassed as import taxes is a matter of stress”, say some economists. This means that more foreign items are entering into the Nepali market. This puts a negative impact on the foreign currency deposit of Nepal. Economists Keshav Acharya said, “The remittance is the main factor for increasing demand in the market, and the remittance is not invested for productive use.”</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> In the last fiscal year, a huge amount was spent on importing vehicles and gadgets such as mobile phones and laptops. “The increase in import tax cannot be considered good in any economy. It may appear as a good source of revenue at present for the government but in a long run, the economy will have to face negative consequences,” Shree Ram Poudel, an Economist said. He further added, “Nepal is slowly catching the Dutch disease.”</p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div>', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2013-03-24', 'modified' => '0000-00-00', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => 'The persistent slow economic growth of Nepal has shown no signs of improvements.
