How that Little thing could make the much Desired Difference


Last week, I interviewed with one of the Players in the Gaming Industry for a role in Accounts/Procurement, though I did not get hired but it was surprising to find that a Holiday job I did for about a month that was not even in my Resume was of most Significance to the Recruiter.
Interviewer: what do you know about ZEROBET (not actual name)
I: honestly, this is the First time I am hearing that name, but I have worked with BETLAGOS (not actual name) and typical of every player in this industry, you are a Central Hub with Agents scattered across different locations, these agents make payments to you and these payments give them the entitlements to BET for their own Clients to the tune of deposits made to you……., the conversations went on and on and Indeed I know (within my exposure) a whole lot about this industry and I was dishing it out as asked.
From the impression on the recruiters’ face, it was obvious she was impressed; I would not have imagined that stint I Had with BETLAGOS would ever be so useful to have made that Big and positive impression.
MORALS
To other Applicants like me, that thing you are doing at the moment may just get you that big Job in the future, while you are waiting for that next Big challenge, do it so well.
Pleasant Wednesday to everyone one

Banks face new compliance pressures as IFRS 9 deadline looms

The banks are facing tighter regulatory pressures as they prepare to meet International Financial Reporting Standards 9 (IFRS 9) deadline, according to analysts. The implementation on IFRS strongly affects the way credit losses are recognised in the balance sheet and profit and loss (P & L) statement. While impairments are currently based on “incurred losses”, IFRS 9 introduces an approach based on future expectations, namely expected losses (EL). The main impact on banks is the need to recognise EL for all financial products, and at individual and grouped-asset levels. Banks will have to update their calculation at each reporting date to reflect changes in the credit quality of their assets. This will significantly increase the number and frequency of impairment quantifications that must be undertaken and the amount of data that must be processed for such purpose.
