How to protect your money online

Не давайте повода кибермошенникам позариться на ваши деньги
1. Do not respond to suspicious emails. Kiberprestupnikichasto copy logos of banks and other financial institutions, to introduce you to the error. Always open a new browser window and type in the address of your bank manually. If the bank has any questions or suggestions for you, they will be displayed in your inbox on the site. If no messages exist, then someone tried to get your password.
2. Pick a complex password. Parolvsegda was considered the weak link in the system of protection of your personal data. There are special programs to search the pages of Facebook and other social media information that you can use to draw up a password. So do not facilitate the work of hackers - do not use the password to your bank account pets, birth date or the name of his wife's favorite dish. Also avoid standard passwords such as qwerty, qwerty12345 and the like. If you can remember only one strong password, then come up with a password for your main e-mail box - as if someone might be able to get into it, you can easily find the key to the other boxes.
3. Use a secure browser. Choose a browser that automatically warns you of dangerous web sites designed to steal passwords and account numbers. Experts advise to use for online banking Google Chrome.
4. Update program. Do not wait for your next update software - it will also help protect against online fraud.
5. Do not forget about the antivirus. Install an antivirus program that will automatically scan your computer for viruses.
6. Do not use other people's computers. When you are away from home, do not use a computer or other leptop in Internet cafes to conduct transactions on your bank account.
7. Protect your smartphone. More and more people save time, use for online banking smartphones. But they are subject to the same risks from Internet fraud, the computers. So install the necessary protection programs cyber criminals - for example, Lookout.

PWS. No complaints of bribery in universities of Kiev were received on the hotline PWS. "This session was just a record. In bribes do not complain" - told us the deputy director of the Department of Higher Education Nov. Nikolai Fomenko.

Where to invest money this year: Warren Buffett's advice

Баффет советует не инвестировать в  золота и ипотеку
Legendary investor Warren Buffett published his annual address to the shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway, in which he shared his opinion with respect to the attractiveness of financial instruments, reports Lenta.ru

How do you know that you will soon leave the company

Как понять, что ваши дни в компании сочтены


Experts told how to guess about the future, and that the dismissal could serve his cause.
The phrase "You're fired!" for many people it sounds like a death sentence.
Psychologists say that the sudden loss of a job causes serious injury to a person, which is comparable with the stress due to divorce or bereavement. But is it really sounded unexpectedly fateful words?
Experts argue that the dismissal of an impending often possible to guess in advance.
However, unfortunately, most people do not pay attention to the many hints and harbingers of impending disaster, writes Komsomolskaya Pravda.
Complete ignore
If you suddenly stopped inviting to business meetings, negotiations, meetings within the company, this is certainly a reason to think. Also troubling, if in respect of employees of the company - as bosses and colleagues - are increasingly noticeable chill, and the staff that used to greet you in the smoking room cheers, now by your appearance in a hurry to separate.
Even more frustrating if your supervisor all the criticism of your work now sends exclusively in writing, with all the negative duplicated also the address of the CEO.
Bad premise is also the fact that people who have always been on your side and in which case would stand up for you and to support, for various reasons have left the company.
Hostile attitude
Another possible scenario is when the bosses are not ignoring you, but, on the contrary, in every way demonstrates hostility. You are given an unrealistic task, requiring a detailed account of what you did during the day, find fault with every word and step, and all offers are questioning, criticism and even ridicule? You can practically no doubt that the authorities dreaming as get rid of you, but he wants to present it in a "nice wrapper" - as if he would fire you for objective reasons.
Gossip
If the rumors and gossip about what you are going to dismiss, reach you with consistently, you can safely start to look for another job. Smoke without fire! You can, of course, assume that such rumors spread your active enemies, but the likelihood of such a development is quite low.
Most likely, the thought of resignation is ripe in the mind of the chief.
What could be the reason
Abnormal behavior
Often the reason for the dismissal is improper or even defiant employee. Therefore, to avoid unpleasant developments should learn the most common reasons why management would want you to say goodbye.
So, what should pay attention to:
Corporate Culture
Here it comes to all - from the time of arrival of a job to respect the dress code. If punctuality - this is the main feature of the corporate culture, if the company is investing heavily to install turnstiles and fixing the time of arrival and departure times of staff, the systematic delays will look defiantly.
Ability to prioritize
To the question, why did not meet the deadline, the employee is always a thousand reasons: assorted mail, conducted telephone calls, a colleague helped develop a new project plan. Of course, all this is very necessary to do, but that's just the overall picture suggests that the employee does not know how to prioritize. And sank a couple of deadlines, such employee may well look for a new job.
Modesty
Yes, yes, I like the heroine of the movie phrase "Look for the Woman" that modesty adorns when no other jewelry. Nevertheless, many employees would not hurt to behave in the workplace more modest. If a person is constantly emphasizes his personal merits, hold cheap work of the team, if he regularly "pulls the blanket over himself" and requires greater attention, sooner or later it becomes annoying guide. And often, the boss may be easier to say goodbye to one person, rather than endure the collective discontent.
Bluster
Some employees, imagines himself indispensable at times threatened boss fired. Do not worth it. It is possible that the head once or twice, endure, and then in response to the phrase "If so - write a statement!" followed by a concise "Write".
Excessive frankness
I will not dissuade those who are always and everywhere believe that the bitter truth is better than sweet lies. The question is, how willing to accept around this truth in general, and in particular it from you? Practice shows that the work should not always and all say what you think, especially if you do not ask about it.
Ably
"Ukraine has to fire can be made as quickly as possible!"
- Dismissal - no less important process than hiring, - said a leading expert Ukrainian labor market Sergei Marchenko. - It would seem that the employee will not be - what the ceremony? The answer is simple: the other employees see what happens and try on the situation in itself, so it is very important for the company to layoff seemed logical and well deserved. That's why objectionable to start publicly expose obstruction. This may be the spacing from the head to the planning meeting, a reprimand for failing job, loss of bonuses and other penalties provided by law. A key marker of possible dismissal is public. The fact that a public reprimand rarely gives lasting positive effect - after a brief improve inevitably comes demotivation caused resentment employee. Therefore, public separation often demonstrates a desire to justify the impending dismissal of management.
In the U.S., some European countries and in South-East Asia practice instant dismissal without notice. The employee is given 15 minutes to get it under the supervision of someone from the administration brought in a box their belongings and left the office. This rigidity can best protect the business from the disloyal dismiss employees. Domestic legislation does not instantly dismiss an employee, but has a number of domestic management controls to carry out the procedure as quickly as possible. The first is blackmail unpaid informal part of the salary, which many companies are much more formal. In addition, management often has to write an application to dismiss "at will" - or threaten to dismiss "on paper" and give bad advice.

In order to be sure in the future, simply follow two simple rules. The first - professional and responsible in their work. In this case, find an adequate substitute for the employee will not be easy and the chief think a hundred times before he was dismissed. Second - not a roadblock for the manager. Delay, disruption of work deadlines, poor quality of its execution, conflicts with colleagues and partners - all of this takes the bosses of their comfort zone. But any boss - a real person, and how the employee had not been valuable as a specialist, your personal comfort for the administrator will always be more important. Therefore the person on whom you can rely, and because of which never troubles, automatically becomes the ideal subordinate, even if not the best in the profession. Head closes his eyes to many things, if he is pleased to work with this person.

Working for foreigners: triple pay and fraudsters


A few tips on how to work in Ukraine, and to receive orders from foreign companies.
Работа на иностранцев: тройные зарплаты и мошенники
Scientists, programmers, translators and lawyers are becoming outsourcers, receiving orders from all over the world. For example, according to an international portal of employment Odesk, Ukrainian outsourcers are in fourth place in the world by number of completed orders after specialists from India, Russia and the U.S.. Such activity of our fellow citizens to understand. Foreign employers are 2-5 times more generous than domestic, and among the advantages of such cooperation - an invaluable experience working with foreign companies. Though not do without a blot on the landscape.
Today we learned where to look for foreign customers, how to negotiate with them and how to protect yourself from scams.
Who are looking for foreigners
In first place in popularity among foreign companies - Ukrainian IT specialists. "Most programmers are in demand. Their looking to outsource all EU countries and the U.S.. Since the high level of professionalism of our pros are asked for their services less than foreign," - says Anna Vojvodina company lawyer HeadHunter Ukraine. However, even with so little appetite they earn more than those who work for the Ukrainian companies. For example, in Ukraine for the development of the site an average of paying $ 100-400, while the customers from abroad prepared for similar projects to pay $ 600-1000 and up. According to the results, a month, a professional software outsourcer can earn about 5000 dollars. Alla Konyayeva, Expert Company Executive Search, notes that the collection center outsourcing orders for the programmers are the U.S., Canada, the UK and the States of Scandinavia.
Second in popularity only to the programmers among foreign employers are also lawyers. "Companies that are planning to do business with Ukrainian partners, trade with our country, or perhaps open here its subsidiaries, seeking lawyers in Ukraine to get a clarification on our legislation. Pay for such advice at least two times greater than in the country "- says the private lawyer Anatoly Yakovlev. Suppose, if the hourly rate lawyers accompanying Ukrainian enterprises, ranging from 800 UAH per hour, for working for foreign companies it is a rate of $ 300-400 per hour and above.
In third place - the representatives of creative professions, designers and advertisers. They receive orders from the U.S. and the EU, as well as from Asian countries, including China, South Korea, Taiwan and Russia. "The demand from foreign buyers have to Ukrainian specialists to develop a promotional product at all stages, from the creative to the realization of the idea of ​​life" - said Elena Grischuk, director of recruiting company boost. Foreign employers pay them too much more. Suppose, on Ukraine single designer's work package worth $ 100-300, and on orders from Moscow or abroad project cost starts at $ 300. According Grischuk, interest from foreigners is and to experts in the field of light industry, such as designer clothes and cutter. "Designers of clothing and skilled seamstresses in Ukraine prepare orders for ready-to-wear, and sometimes a collection of haute couture, the United Arab Emirates. And experts working in the field of light industry, skilled receptionist and cutters, can expect orders for tailoring for the European mass market ", - said Grischuk.
Here the main advantage - a massive order and a guaranteed job, payment for which will start from 700 euros and up, depending on the performer. To neighboring countries - Russia and Eastern Europe - are working Ukrainian craftsmen, to make products of wood and handmade jewelry. They buy as souvenirs, for example, in Hungary and Poland. Due to the demand for bulk orders of souvenirs from cities such as Krakow and Budapest, with a developed tourist infrastructure, than in Ukraine, webmasters can earn from $ 1 thousand per month.

How does the investor to choose a reliable bank

As reporting banks on the NBU website can help the investor to choose a reliable bank, and not the problem.
Ukrainian bankers announced the results of the previous year. If you compare the latest figures with those obtained in 2010, shows that the situation has improved. For example, assets (ownership of banks) rose by 12.4% - to 1.59 trillion USD, while in 2010 - only 8.8%. A loss of 175-T Bank fell nearly doubled - to 7.71 billion USD. Moreover, such a figure is mainly due to the negative results of "Ukrgasbank" (3.6 billion USD) and "UkrSibbank" (3.7 billion USD). That is, they had more to spend on all the reserves for credit risks.
All these dry figures can "come to life", if you learn how to understand them. Therefore, we have read reports of banks on the site of the NBU and find out what she can tell the investor. After all, it is more important to be able to assess the reliability of the bank. The fact that recently he would seek from the National Bank ban on early withdrawal of deposits declared Ukrainian Credit-Banking Union. And if he will enter, will have to choose a bank that did not go bankrupt at least until the end of your contribution.
Financial indicators: quality versus quantity
Data collection. To test the reliability of the bank look at its financial performance. By comparing its profit, the amount of assets and deposits at January 1, 2012 and on January 1 last year. "Stable growth in assets and profitability positively characterize the bank, - the head of the department of development of retail business FUIB Maxim Mironenko. - But is not only important asset size, but also their quality. "
Anatomy of assets. The most "quality" (liquid) assets are considered the bank's money in his accounts and in hand, plus government securities. They can be exchanged at any time for cash payments to depositors. Than the bank's more, the better it will be easier to get back invested savings. Thus, according to Maxim Mironenko, if the asset structure is very much occupied loans and the total amount is much higher than the amount of own resources and of deposits - a sign of the low stability of the bank.
His pocket. And is an important indicator of its equity. What it is, the larger the bank, and the greater the risk he is willing to accept. "The large size of the Bank's equity shows the financial strength of the bank and the owners of intent to develop a financial institution, - the director of the Department of Finance" Nadra Bank "Konstantin Serdunich. - Increase of the capital said the bank plans to expand its operations and add stability. Decrease in the need to consider on a case by case basis. Usually a slight decrease should not cause concern: it may be due to time constraints. But the sharp decline in mean significant problems in the bank. "
Monetary equilibrium. However, according to Konstantin Serdunicha, properly considered equity ratio compared to assets and liabilities. Since one and the same level of equity capital for banks with assets of 3 billion USD and 10 billion USD will have a different value. "For an accurate assessment of the reliability of the bank's main indicator is balance - emphasizes the expert. - A large amount of assets reflects the effective activity of the institution, but the increase in the assets to be supported by an increase in capital and the growth of the deposit base. This shows the confidence of investors, customers, and reliability "(see" A new test of reliability ").
Fleeing customers. You should be alerted a sharp decrease in the volume of loans and deposits (10%). Usually it means a reduction in the confidence of depositors and investors. But if the loss is insignificant, it could serve as a reason for folding the next campaign. The fact is that, according to bankers, investors rarely do deep analysis of deposit offers. Usually, they choose one of those options, which are heard in the ad.
Cards. If you are going to open a deposit account with the bank is not as common (current), look how much he (or the network to which it belongs) ATMs. Of their number in your town depends on how quickly you can withdraw their money from the account without a fee. It is advisable to make sure all ATMs were near home and work. It is also important how many active holders of "plastic" from your bank. The more, the more experience he has in this market, and the sooner your problems will be solved with the card.
Important! Find the results of all the banks on the site of the National Bank www.bank.gov.ua. Section "Banking Supervision", the heading "Financial statement of Ukraine." The information is updated quarterly.

Additional labels
Financial performance of the bank - not the only criterion for its reliability. Therefore it is advisable to collect other information.
The fired wolves. Find out how the bank survived the crisis of 2008. Enter the name of the bank in the search engine and see whether there is in it a temporary administration. If not, the reviews on the forums ask investors if there was any interruption in the payment of deposits. Check how "open" the bank - he regularly reports its performance.
Spenders. Compare Deals on deposit rates with the average for the market. If they are "at the peak", which means the bank in dire need of money. This may indicate impending problems.
Protected. Find out who is behind the bank. If you look at what banks have resisted in times of crisis, it appears that these are banks with state or foreign capital and owned by large financial and industrial groups, neither one of them is not in the list of problem. Important financial institutions and reputation management.
Insured. By law, all banks (except the "Savings Bank", in which deposits are guaranteed by the state) are parties to the Deposit Guarantee Fund. However, according to Oleg Lutsenko, membership in the Fund does not mean reliability of the bank. But it ensures that if the bank goes bankrupt party, its depositors receive compensation (150 UAH per person). In addition, for non-payment of contributions, failure to standards of the National Bank, the deterioration of the financial condition of the bank and other faults can become a temporary member of the Fund. This means that from now on all deposits in the bank, the Fund is not guaranteed. Know whether your chosen bank member of the Fund can be on his website or www.fg.org.ua hotline 0-800-308-108-0.
Priced. You can check and the bank's rating. Sites such as rating agencies. International agencies: www.moodys.ru, www.fitchratings.ru, www.standardandpoors.ru, Ukrainian: www.credit-rating.com.ua. But, experts say, the ratings of banks depend on the rating of the country, so do not always show the situation objectively.
The new criterion
To properly assess the financial performance of the bank, we can calculate its liquidity. They do not mean just the ability of the bank to make payments to customers, and their ability to make it on time. These indicators include regulations of the NBU. By the way, in February, the regulator announced that from 01.01.2013, he will introduce a new reliability index of banks. This standard (NC-1) will be calculated as the ratio of regulatory capital to the bank's liabilities (NC-1 = capital: liabilities x 100%). "At the moment, the National Bank and commercial banks use the rate of H3, which is calculated as the ratio of regulatory capital to total assets (NC = capital: assets x 100%) - explained Konstantin Serdunich. - Innovations complement the existing standard. It shows how much of its obligations to creditors and depositors of the bank can be covered by own funds.
Particularly important is the figure for those who are going to entrust their funds to banks, because, above all, designed to protect their interests. The fall of this indicator is below 10% threatens the stability of financial institutions and can lead to non-deposit. " As explained by the chairman of the Astra Bank Oleg Lutsenko, the value of the norm for a particular NC bank can be found in its quarterly financial report in the "Performance of the bank." Financial statements, all banks are required to publish on your site and post on the bulletin board in the offices.
Cautious or surrender. According to Constantine Serdunicha, this requirement NBU force banks to increase their net worth. And those who are not able to do so, will be absorbed or stronger, or are forced to look for opportunities to merge. In general, experts believe that such a regulator's decision to reduce risks and add stability of the banking system. And according to the head of the operational and market risks FUIB Anton Butovo, the introduction of such a standard would force banks to recruit fewer loans. Accordingly, the reliability of banks will increase. Indeed, in 2008, the year of the crisis most affected is the banks, which in hindsight gained too much foreign currency loans and as a result were not able to pay for them, when the currency collapsed.
